Walking down the street a couple days ago bundled up in my wool coat and warm fuzzy boots with gloves on holding the hand of my shivering little girl on the way to her school in the morning, it occurred to me that October was much too early for it to be that fucking cold. … Continue reading the weather
NaNo No No…
Last year I successfully started and completed NaNoWriMo (which I affectionately call Bert). It was insane, strange and a little stressful but I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the camaraderie. So when it came time to decide if I would do NaNoWriMo again this year, I chose to go ahead with it. Gladly. Excitedly. And … Continue reading NaNo No No…
Yes We Did!
Some one else, I'm sure, will have something more eloquent to say today. More poignant. More important. I'm struck speechless. I feel so much pride in this country at this moment. Yes we did. Yes we did.
if you do nothing else today…
Even if you don't shower or put on deodorant or wear pants or a shirt or take your vitamins. Even if you don't feel like it or you don't think it will count... If you do nothing else today, VOTE. (If you've already voted you can totally ignore this)

Or until about 30 minutes before Mike gets home from work when it stops talking and acts like nothing is wrong. … Continue reading I’m not crazy…
2 hours won’t kill me…
There are times that I wake up so busy that if I don't hit the ground running it seems as though nothing will get done. Then, there are the times that I can't possibly hope to get everything done no matter how hard I try. No matter how fast I run. No matter how much … Continue reading 2 hours won’t kill me…
a quickie…
This post is going to be a quickie... The only reason I'm taking the time to type this is because as I do type this K is desperately fighting sleep in the next room and while she does that I'm taking the time to do this. This being the post writing thing. And while she … Continue reading a quickie…
