These are my shoes.  They are about a year old.  People ask me if they’re new.  They look new.  They’re not. They were purchased to run a 10k with Baldman last fall.  Guess what?  We didn’t run it.  There are so many things that we say we’re gonna do that we don’t.  It’s not fun. [...]

Okay, picked up this fill-in from Heather.  Enjoy.   1. If I could get away somewhere for the weekend I would go to:  a B&B with my hubs.  And I’m going to in a couple of weeks, celebrating our 14 years of marriage.  Crazy. 2. Something I often rant about is: okay, 2 things.  One, [...]

I love journaling; I’m sure that’s why I started blogging.  I keep several journals.  One for each kid, from the time I knew I was pregnant with each of them.  (Sadly, much like their scrapbooks, the journal for the oldest is rather full, while the youngest just gets a sprinkling of an entry every now [...]

Like the clipping of an oft groomed fingernail, the moon tonight was just a bright sliver of light in the cerulean sky.  It had not yet climbed to its bedtime perch, but sat delicately above the treeline.  The clouds tonight were stretched and gently lain across the earth as new batting just about to be [...]

In his five year old reality, summer seems another lifetime away.  Outside, snowflakes are rapidly falling to the sidewalks.  He’s home from another grueling week of Kindergarten, already changed out [...]

Keeping it simple.  That’s the plan for getting healthy this year. I’ve done the calorie counting before.  And it works….for a while.  But I know that I won’t spend the rest of my life counting calories, I just know it.  Because I don’t want to. I do, however, want to change my body and my [...]

Hi all.  Happy New Year. I said, “HAPPY NEW YEAR!” Sorry, anyone still out there? Getting ready to start writing a bit more out here.  Okay, so, a lot more.  I’m hoping there may still be one or two of you still out here to read.  If not, that’s okay, too.  I’ll just keep writing. [...]

Have you missed me? Okay, so, probably the biggest news I’ve had here in a while.  Because of recent family changes, I’ve returned to the work force.  Not too many hours to start, but will be slowly working up to more hours. It’s a bit exciting.  I’m going to be taking photos at a studio.  [...]

The outcome of quiet.  For real quiet.  The silent kind of quiet.  And I’m slightly disturbed by it. I’m always saying I want quiet.  There is constantly noise around me.  Usually it’s name is Jake, though his siblings and the dog help, too.  And loud noise.  Loud, loud, loud.  People call me on the phone [...]
