A little after 6 tonight on my way home from grabbing a quick bite to eat with my mom who is visiting from out of town I thought to myself 'self this would be a great time to get some espresso because you're totally lagging and it will perk you right up!' so we stopped … Continue reading espresso fueled brilliance… or not

a new pet peeve is born…
Can something be a pet peeve if you've only experienced it once? I ask because something happened over the weekend that made me bat shit bonkers annoyed and I never ever ever want to see it again... but the times being what they are I'm quite sure it's going to happen at some point. You … Continue reading a new pet peeve is born…
almost spring cleaning…
I woke up in the morning when the sun was sunny and popped out of bed like some chipper little bunny rabbit or something eager to start my day. My day chocked full of a ton of menial little tasks! Closet cleaning, drawer sorting, book boxing, dish washing tasks! And away we went. Up up … Continue reading almost spring cleaning…
mending…
I sat with needle and thread. And tweezers and scissors. And an ice cold drink, just in case. But I sat with needle and thread and mended things that needed mending. A button here, a ripped seam there. And the zipper of my favorite bag. The end stop had come off and when I unzipped … Continue reading mending…
hbo shows, meet cami’s life…
There are days as I sit and watch the world go by and listen to those around me that I wonder if I’m in the waiting room for HBO shows. One mom talks about her divorce and her ex’s divorces. Messy and messier still. Another hands out homemade cookies and talks about the planned community … Continue reading hbo shows, meet cami’s life…
of words, thoughts and symmetry…
It began as a conversation with my daughter. Discussing eyes. Then eyelashes. Mascara. We ended up at fake eyelashes. The fake eyelash is something that many women have a chance to get to know throughout their lives. Some of us loathe them. Some of us love them. Some of us manage to avoid them. My … Continue reading of words, thoughts and symmetry…
reduce, reuse, you know…
It's that time again. Time to clean out the "Recent Drafts" section. That's just what WordPress calls them. Some of these aren't so recent so let's grab a few titles, shall we? No. Not really asking you. Just a nice transitional phrase. We're doing it. I'm pulling up titles, sharing them with you and then … Continue reading reduce, reuse, you know…

I don't know if you're aware of this or not. It could come as a total shock to you, but it's Tuesday. Yep. Tuesday. The second day of the week (if you start the week counting on Monday. Which is how I do it. Monday is the beginning of the WEEK. Sunday is the WEEKEND). … Continue reading shorts…
the snow that was not, again…
I love snow. I love snow in a way that only a girl raised in various parts of California and Texas far away from snowy places can. Let's add to that. I reside in Portland. People who don't live here might think we get snow. We don't. Every year or two we get a little … Continue reading the snow that was not, again…
dear carrots…
Dear Carrots, It has come to my attention that I don't eat enough of you. Unless you're smothered in butter. Or blue cheese dressing. That's how you taste best after all. However, enough is enough. I'm nearing my mid 30's and the less I eat of you the more I seem to eat of other … Continue reading dear carrots…
