Earlier today while chatting with my friend as we whiled away the hours at work we got to talking about our blogs. Which really makes complete and total sense given who I work for and what I do. Of course blogging would be a topic of conversation with my friends and coworkers. And in the … Continue reading I’m only online to write a blog post…
There are few scents more soothing and restorative to me than the perfume of Star Jasmine on a cool breeze. Growing up my family moved around a bit. And by a bit I mean a lot. The few people I know who moved around as much or more than I did as a kid are … Continue reading wishing for a green thumb…
First of all, don't panic. Take a deep breath. It's all okay. I did eventually manage to get the contact lens out of my eye. I know you were worried, you're nice like that. And I know the thought of a contact lens floating around in someone's eye unanchored is a little unsettling. The ick … Continue reading what to do when you lose a contact lens. in your eye…
A few months ago on one of our neighborhood walkabouts the kid and I stopped in at a favorite little shop to browse.

Deep in the moment of annoyance meets shame meets I'm-a-grown-ass-person-I-do-what-I-want! Half the time I have to scramble to … Continue reading when the binge watching ends…
Earlier this year I came down with a case of the crud and a horrible cough and it turned out to be Pneumonia and, as Pneumonia does, it knocked me on my ass for a couple of weeks. It was around my birthday and I hemmed and hawed and pouted because I couldn't really DO … Continue reading we were out of hand soap…
Knowing I would come home exhausted from many hours of running the concrete paths that are the amusement parks of Orlando. And flying from one side of the country to the other. And then back.
