About Me

Hi there! Thanks for making a stop on your road to internet procrastination.  

My name is Kim. If you have made it here, you are likely my mom and/or a Facebook friend or Twitter follower who felt obligated to click my status update/tweet. 

But if you stumbled onto this site on your own, here some things to know about me. I love:  

naps. the sun. thank-you cards. excess commas. traveling. chiefs football. tacos. shopping. cheese. friends. scarves. google. coffee. olive oil. high fives. and laughing. 

Laughing is my favorite.

Things I don't love:

running. yard work. milk.

So what's the story behind this blog? I started blogging over on May the Road Rise as I traveled through Central America. I wanted a place to journal my travels and to share the experience with my family and friends.Then a funny thing happened. 

I realized I liked sharing my life. I liked documenting. I liked writing (again).

And who wouldn't want to know my opinion?  I realize the answer to this is only my mom.

And thus, A Mindful Detour was born. 

This blog will chronicle the life of Kim, from my travels to my ordinary, often mundane life.
