I recently shared that I've been having a rough go of things lately. Thank you to all of you who read and especially to those who sent me kind words of encouragement. They mean more to me than you can possibly know. I've had a much better week. I've been making a deliberate effort to … Continue reading Yay for a Better Week!
This is a shot I took last weekend when I was exploring behind my house. It would be a bit disingenuous to refer to this as "my back yard" since technically it's past our property lines, but isn't it simply gorgeous? The canal feeds into the Wilmington River and is one of several canals that … Continue reading Happy Earth Day – in a slightly tardy fashion

Where Did the Past TWO Months Go?
I want to tell you everything's okay...that I'm fine and all that. And while that wouldn't be a flat-out lie, it's far from the entire truth. I wish I could take a vacation from life. I want all the hard mommy duties to go away. Fuck meal prep and the revolving door that is … Continue reading Where Did the Past TWO Months Go?
Island Winter Dreary
The boys and I spent an afternoon at Tybee Island last week. We typically head that way for beach fun, but it was too chilly for that, so we waved at the ocean from the bridge and explored elsewhere. They hit the playground while I played with my camera, and then we all took a … Continue reading Island Winter Dreary

Facebook, Unfriending & Havoc Created: Part 1
On Friday, I read a post on my friend Dyane's blog that reminded me of a life-altering experience my friend, Tara, had several years ago. I do a lot of thinking about social media -- the connections, behaviors I see, the benefits, the drawbacks. I ponder how I prefer using various platforms, both personally and … Continue reading Facebook, Unfriending & Havoc Created: Part 1

How cool would THIS be? I might put this on my list of things to do in the near future. Check out this link for more.
The Blizzard’s Lesson
Check out this fabulous post by my partner, Maggie, over at Live. Snap. Write. I hope all of you are staying warm and surviving winter (or summer for many of you.) It hasn't snowed in Coastal Georgia, but if I never see another rainy, overcast day I'll be okay. However, Maggie helped me shift my … Continue reading The Blizzard’s Lesson
Reading, Cleaning, Gabbing
Happy Tuesday, my loves. Are y'all as happy to see February as I am? Did our pal, the groundhog, see his shadow in your neck of the woods? My children are both having cognitive jumps, apparently. What this means is that their debate skills are forcing me to use parts of my brain that have … Continue reading Reading, Cleaning, Gabbing
