About How Was Your Day

How Was Your Day? is a premier millennial lifestyle blog based in the Midwest. I’m Greta, and I do most of the writing and posting around here. I’m an early 30-something West Coast native that is now Midwest based. What part of the West Coast, you ask? All of it! From stints that were just north of the Mexican border to just south of the Canadian border, I’ve lived everywhere. We even spent some time in the tropics!

Having those experiences has influenced my world views. I’m free-spirited, easy going, and always on the lookout for a great adventure. Be it food, fashion, travel, fun, or new products, I like to know about it. My tastes and personal style are very eclectic. I love Mid-Century Modern design and color.

I love to create! I have used those skills to create products and projects for many manufacturers. These DIY projects have also been published in various books and magazines.

Who is Greta:

I’m in my early 30’s – okay, I’ll be 34 this year! I’m a creative, handy kind of gal that likes bright colors, stimulating conversation, long walks along the beach – oh, wait. Wrong profile! I love to write about items or events that include beauty, fashion, style, DIY, home decor, gardening, food, and travel.

I have a BA in History.
I’ve been blogging since the early 2000’s, and it’s come a long way, baby.
I am curious about everything.
I have traveled extensively.
Hockey Fan does not even begin to describe my zeal for the sport.
