LIVING ARRANGEMENT?
C’est moi et Sophie. Living in Mooresville, N.C., which is about 500 miles away from “home” – Scranton, Pa. I spent my entire life between July 15, 1985 and May 24, 2007 in Pennsylvania before packing my bags to try something new. I rent a cute little house in Mill Village with my dog, Sophie.
