  • 2017-10-29 On the Move Again ✈️

    We’ve been up since 5. We flew north to Minnesota. We laid over for 2.5 hours.  And now we are on a 8 hour flight to Honolulu. I think this is the longest flight I’ve ever been on. Perhaps Dublin to Atlanta in 2010 was longer, but if was, it wasn’t by much. After this…

  • 2017-10-28 Switching Gears.. In 3rd Person

    The post that is the conclusion of the “to be continued” previous posts on career and health and romance will be coming to the WordPress reader steam near you soon. However, at this time we are interrupting that regularly scheduled programming to take you to our world traveling corespondent, Miss SugarCookie. She will be blogging…

  • 2017-10-16 Home Sweet Home

    I arrived home about 10:30PM, got most things put away, and have just now settled into bed. The kids stayed at Brian’s an extra night because of our delay so it is just me and the kitten here. She greeted me at the door and has been following me around ever since. I’m glad to…

  • 2017-10-14 A Full Day of Coloradoing

    Today I was up early (before the sun) and had first breakfast in the solitude of my brother’s kitchen. Then when everyone else got up, he cooked us breakfast so I ate again. We waited a little bit after that before heading out for our hike because there was a pretty good fog covering the…

  • 2017-09-17 Austin Day 4: Sunday Wake Up

    I woke up at 6AM at the conclusion of a dream I was having about a situation of injustice surrounding a child who did not have a voice of their own to defend what was happening to them. I had been trying tirelessly for hours to plead with the people around him or her to…

  • 2017-09-15 Austin Day 2: Connections and Perspective

    Yesterday I met with Jill and Jason and met their little darlings for the first time. They are friends of mine who I know because of Matt and that’s a story that repeats as people come together and break apart. New friendships are formed, others fade away. I wrote a poem last valentines day about…

  • 2017-09-14 To Austin!

    Despite getting up ridiculously early, I’m in really good spirits. I’m headed for my home away from home. I’m headed to rest, relaxation, and rejuvenation with my Texas Bestie, Rebecca, and her lively crew. This is my second trip this year, the first being in mid-May. At that time I probably wrote all there is…

  • 2017-08-21 What I Would Do for Totality.. Apparently

    Be up over 36 hours straight. Suffer through a migraine. Suffer through a terrible hotel stay. Have the worst “free” hotel breakfast ever. Hours of waiting (this part wasn’t so bad before the eclipse because we were with friends). Stupid paper glasses (ok, now I’m just being a whiny bitch). Lack of proper nutrition (my…
