It’s embrace the camera Thursday! I used to take all kinds of crappy photos self portraits of Avelyn and I when she was a baby. These days the fight usually isn’t worth the battle. However, wouldn’t a whole album of pictures like these just be wonderful to show my grandkids one day? No matter, she [...]

Do you know why I never post anymore? Because I DON’T HAVE TIME. ANY. Do you know why I don’t have time? Because my full time 7-day a week day job involves a TWO YEAR OLD. And my full time 36-hours a week job exhausts what little energy I have left to give. Do you [...]
Tonight I got off work at 3 am. Naturally I couldn’t sleep when I got home (because it’s ONLY 3am) so I showered and tiptoed into the office expecting to go through photos on the computer. Instead I got sidetracked (hello ADD) and I stumbled on a small box of mementos tucked away in a [...]
To procreate or not to procreate. That is my question. I used to want 5 kids. FIVE. Back when I was crazy and newly married and had no idea of how much debt I would incur with two degrees and a husband with a dream. Back when I thought staying home with my kids would be the [...]

I have finally accepted the realization that I will never “catch up” on my blogging so I should stop pretending and just post something already. The fact is I AM BUSY*. I work between 36 and 50 hours a week at night, sleep a few hours during the day and still manage to be a [...]

Hold on to your hats folks, we may be up to two, count ‘em TWO, posts today. I KNOW. I sent Avelyn off to school and Kevin off to work so I could have the day to myself and get everything done. I don’t even feel bad about it either because I will get my [...]

I’ve been thinking long and hard about this blog thing. It’s ironic that the writing seemed to stop almost immediately after I moved to my own domain and started paying money to run it. It’s like I could write one hundred annoying posts a day when it was free but by golly, now that there’s [...]

It’s 8:44pm. I could update Flickr which hasn’t been touched since summer. I could spend two hours pulling together a really great blog post I’ve been mulling over. I could make a list of all the stores I need to hit, and the supplies I need to buy to finish Avelyn’s Halloween costume. I could [...]

I have 147 unread items in my Google Reader. Don’t be surprised if I don’t comment on 146 of those. I want a new computer! Like really, really, a whole, whole lot want a new computer. Probably a Mac! And Photoshop! And a new lens for the camera! And someone to teach me all the [...]

I’ve been feeling lost, sluggish, out of it lately. I feel as if I’m in a holding pattern between where I was and where I want to be, but I don’t know exactly where I am right now. Life is going good, so maybe a little part of me is secretly waiting for the impending [...]
