    2019-10-12 Great Day’s and Girls Only Getaways

    I ended my post a few days ago with “Tomorrow’s Gonna Be Great.” And indeed it was and how did I know that? How? On Wednesday evening when I was walking the treadmill and thinking and writing I was sort of in a sour mood as I had been running around all day and did…

    2019-09-16 Just Shrugging Along

    Monday again and I had class which felt really long today. We finished a class exercise we started last week and it took 77 minutes. I didn’t count .. the prof was apparently keeping track. It makes me realize these things are sometimes just as tedious (or more so) for the person dreaming up, conducting…

    2019-07-08 What’s a Girl to Do?

    It’s been a few days since I’ve had a moment to myself to even think about life, let alone write about it. We had a pretty great holiday weekend.. mostly chill and the main excitement was getting our new little kitty, Doug, acclimated to the house and the other cats. We started that on the…

    2019-05-31 May the Thirty First

    It’s the last day of the Month and at the present moment I’m looking at myself in the mirror and asking “What have YOU done?”. This constant soul searching is quite draining. But literally.. I’m on the treadmill in my basement that faces a mirror and I’m staring at myself. Seems pretty vain but it’s…

    2019-05-28 Tyrannosaurus Tuesday

    I’m certain that you thought it was Taco Tuesday. You probably woke up this morning, like I did, thinking about tacos. No? Ok. Yesterday I was just mad. Mad, I say, about everything. It was one of those days that every little thing was shredding my nerves, and I could simply not relax. I checked…

  • 2019-05-09 PMS and Bad Poetry

    About a week ago I was freaking out because my Fitbit was reporting that my period was like 5 days late. Crazy thoughts go through one’s mind in times like that. I found myself thinking about what it would be like to start over. Another bundle of joy, diapers, Halloween costume creations, and 18 more…

  • 2019-05-07 Another Birthday in the Books ❤️🎉🎂🎊🎈

    Today my son is 15 and like most parents in my position, I can’t hardly believe it. Time just sneaks by with such quickness. What feels like overnight your tiny, chubby-cheeked darling turns into a clever, sensitive and very independent 15 year old. He is an amazing person and despite our struggles, he’s still my…

  • 2019-05-02 The One About Food (and Parenting)

    Yesterday was such a long day and I did not have a minute to spare. I spent most of the day at the Med Center parricipating in sessions and meetings and doing that work thing I sometimes do. I only had a break from that in the afternoon long enough to pick up the kids…
