2018-05-11 Being Female
I had two babies. I would not trade the experience I had growing human beings inside of me for anything. It was truly amazing. Just think about it.. Where there was nothing a life grew. They developed and kicked me from the inside and rolled around. Incredible. I have to remember that on days like…

2018-05-06 Let’s Do This Sunday Thing
It’s Sunday again and that means it’s Status Update time. Today’s theme.. the struggle never ends, but that’s so, so good! Exercise… 13.5K average steps per day this past week. Below average for goal and well below average for my personal lofty expectations. A big part of this is probably the sharp drop-off of my…

2018-05-02 Looking Forward
Spring is by far my favorite season. It’s like all the wonderful green is finally waking up and stretching the long winter sleep away. I’ve complained about the brevity of spring flowers but I still love to see those presents popping up all over. Last fall I found a steal of a deal on bulbs…

2018-04-24 Achtung Baby
I put my iPhone on master shuffle to see what the Universe thinks I should be inspired by. “Even Better than the Real Thing” by U2 apparently. Hey.. isn’t that song like 30 years old? There’s nothing like THAT coming up in the shuffle of 1000+ songs I have on my personal electronic pocket computer…

2018-04-20 Timing is Everything
I’m well caffeinated this morning and just flush with thoughts about what I’m reading and the music in my ears. I’m so inspired about all the things I could pontificate about in my next set of essays for school. The renaissance, history, evolutionary biology, the invention of computer language. It’s wild. The book I’m reading…

2018-04-17 Broken Records
Balance.. procrastination.. balance.. sacrifice sleep.. social anxiety.. steps forward.. struggle.. too much to do. Rinse and repeat. I’ve been writing this blog for 15 months now and when I started I was very much a broken person. A broken down broken record repeating the same sad story week after week. I was all “too much…

2018-04-10 Getting Older
Apparently one of the side effects of getting old is forgetting ones actual age. I was having a conversation the other day and JS asked how old my siblings were. I know the difference in our ages, so I always calculate this by taking my age and adding/subtracting appropriately (I’m a middle child of 4).…

2018-04-06 Having Nothing to Say is OK Too
It’s April 6 and I woke up to snow coming down and all my daffodils sad bent over kissing the white dusted ground. This is NOT what spring is supposed to like. I also have nothing to talk about but the weather. That’s not how this is supposed to be, but just like the snow,…
