Tonight after Mike got home from work I got to go out. I got to leave the house. Those of you not held captive by a small child 24 hours a day might not get the significance of that so let me repeat it for you: I got to go out with no kid on … Continue reading a family
why the bathroom smells like wet cat…
It was Friday, just afternoon. I'd spent the morning volunteering at school and had to head back at 1pm but I needed a few moments for me. I'd already had a bite to eat and wasted some time on twitter so I was at a bit of a loss. I stretched my arms and back … Continue reading why the bathroom smells like wet cat…
close to flying…
I remember being barefoot and gliding through the sky in the shade of a tree. My heart was pounding as I took great gulps of air, I was terrified and invincible all at once as I pumped my legs forward and back willing myself to go higher and higher.

I'd been up all night (til 1, maybe 1:30) and I … Continue reading 15 hours… my touchy feely post about WordCamPDX
shiny and new…
There's nothing quite like a new header to make a girl feel extra sassy. It may seem silly to you but new header days are like clean sheet day to the 100th degree. It's like having a great new bra & matching panties x20. Like your first kiss with a lover. Yeah, new header days … Continue reading shiny and new…
what’s in a name?
When I started this blog nearly 2 years ago the name was an afterthought. I started it for myself, and at the time I didn't really grasp the far reaching tendrils of blogging. I didn't realize that writing this blog was going to become a daily part of my life. I didn't know that blogging … Continue reading what’s in a name?

For the first time since we ripped out our main floor bathroom my posts will all be variations on a theme this week. No it has nothing to do with remodeling our house, I've had quite enough of that for this year thank you very much...Instead I'm going to be remodeling, reforming, transforming and fixing … Continue reading chrysalis
