Years ago I heard one of my favorite authors speak about her writing process, and one thing she said that stuck with me was “I like to write about things with a resolution.” At the time it didn’t make sense to me, I was in the midst of law school, infertility and being thousands ofContinue reading “weekend update.”

Early Saturday morning I was sideswiped on the freeway and sent spinning into the center median of I-70. Whoever hit me simply drove off, they didn’t even slow down. After getting a clear look at the damage on my car today there’s no way they could have been unaware of hitting me. (Also, if you’reContinue reading “the one about the hit and run.”

Hey. So I’m just going to go ahead and get it all out about today. Vomit. Vomit and poop for the last 48 hours from everyone but me. (SO FAR.) When there are three people suffering from this kind of sick and only one of the three is self sufficient that leaves me with theContinue reading “the one about all the stomach flu blues.”

Cody’s been telling me all sorts of random facts about cats lately. “Did you know that 80% of cats carry a bacteria that causes depression in humans?” No, but I’m well aware husbands have a 100% chance of causing grumpiness in their wives. “Did you know cats just think of us as big clumsy cats?Continue reading “did you know cats never forgive?”

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Home Run Inn Pizza. ******* I once saw a triangle with ‘sanity’ ‘clean house’ and ‘happy kids’ written at each corner.

To anyone who has never truly experienced humid cold, bless. Growing up in Utah where it would snow two feet overnight and one was still expected to make to school on time, the way Indiana reacts to weather has always amused me. Two hour delays and school cancellations for a few inches of snow. ADORABLE.Continue reading “reports from the polar vortex”

2014 is already 1/24th over and I’ve not done a thing around here, not that I haven’t wanted to — I’ve just been busy keeping other people alive. Tiring work, keeping other people alive. But I feel as though I need to give you a brief update, as well as document things for myself becauseContinue reading “15 things about the past 15 days.”

So a lot of good, exciting and once in a lifetime stuff went down in 2013, which maybe explains why it went by so fast? I decided in October I was going to make a reverse life list, acknowledging all of the crazy and amazing stuff I’ve been blessed enough to do instead of focusingContinue reading “hey 2013, it’s been real.”

On Sunday we had our Christmas program at church, it was a good one. It convinced me I need to find a different church to attend on Wednesday (Tuesday?) so I can hear more Christmas songs sung by a choir. I don’t even know how Christmas services work on Christmas since we don’t do themContinue reading “mickey marilyn monroe christmas clubhouse (sponsored by hallmark)”

Vivi has this way of fitting against me as I rock her at night, it’s going to be one of the things I miss the absolute most as she gets bigger and more independent. One of the things I ached for the most when I was trying to get pregnant again was to hold aContinue reading “the gift of being (sponsored by hallmark)”
