2022-02-26 The World Needs a Sabbatical

Today I read a tweet that was about the fact that the world continues to crumble and burn yet, here in America at least, society at large continues to press on as normal. Sure we all continue on as best we can, getting up each day and trudging through it until our head hits the…

2022-02-23 So.. What’s New With You?

I know, I know… I missed “Two’s day” It was everywhere, though so I didn’t want to be cliché. That’s a lie. Anyone who knows me knows I’m not afraid of being cliché; I embrace it like bad poetry. 😜 I am sad I missed posting yesterday and having the opportunity to type that date…

2022-02-16 The Newest New Shiny

It seems like I get the most satisfaction when I’m working on a new project that I’m excited about. I get distracted by a new shiny and somehow that becomes my whole goal in life. I forget what was important yesterday… and pour my heart into what’s new. I think that’s only human. Working on…

2022-02-13 The One About Memory and Time. And Rocks… 🪨

I think about time quite a bit, and about memory too. I think about an hourglass glued to the table; the lyric of a song stuck in my mind for a lifetime. I can’t escape the curve of it, the gravity, the sensation of something you can’t really hold on to that’s slipping away. I’ve…

2022-02-12 SMA Road Trip Day 6: All Roads Lead Home

Our last night on the road was spent at a Holiday Inn Express and it was definitely not the consistent experience I’ve come to expect from the HIE. Still, we just needed a place to sleep and gear up for the last, and longest, day on the road. No places to stop, no booked tickets…

2022-02-11 SMA Road Trip Day 5: A Mammoth Day 🦣🦣🦣

We left our Airbnb before the sun was up. Unfortunately, we’d set ourselves up with tickets for a tour at Mammoth Cave in Kentucky at 1PM making our timeline extremely tight. Yup. Another, no coffee, no bathroom morning. Another 4 hours full of anxiety over having four minutes to spare. Or so We thought. About…

2022-02-10 SMA Road Trip Day 4: More Exploring

We were up again with the sun yesterday. There were quite a few Smokey Mountain stops on our list that we either didn’t see signs for or that were on a different road through the park altogether so the goal was just to see more. Truthfully, we were kind of feeling hiked-out from the previous…

2022-02-09 SMA Road Trip Day 3: Smoky Mountain Exploration

We woke up on day three to the sunrise which was in full view from the giant window in the master bedroom. And once that sun is up, it is up. No sleeping in is allowed. This was OK by us as we had a full day of exploring the Smoky Mountains ahead. I made…
