Pushing Fifty and a Stroller is written by Ilisa Aaron Parrish, a mom living in a small town in Middle America with her husband, kids, and dogs.
As a lifelong overthinker, this blog is her creative mind dump regarding all things normal and boring and unusual and interesting. The posts incorporate themes of love, loss, grief, reinvention, and resilience and explore the absurdity of parenting a small child while receiving mailers from AARP.
Ilisa is an instructor in the Film/TV and Screenwriting departments at a large university. Her screenplays have won and placed in writing contests.
Ilisa raises money for DIPG/pediatric brain tumor research at http://www.themasonparrishfoundation.org.
