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

Post-Holiday Funk
I feel strongly that I should warn you about the nature of this post. It's a whiney, first-world rant of the largest degree. Move forward at your own risk. I'm in a bitch of a mood. It started at 6:30 this morning when Wallace jumped on Pier's head. Piers slept in my room last night … Continue reading Post-Holiday Funk
A Day in the Life of a Scrawny Chick With ADD Who Takes Controlled Substances
How's that for a title? Let's jump right in, shall we? I'm taking a respite from the meds that make my brain work, not exactly by choice. When I went to pick up my refill, I was informed that I hadn't had an actual appointment in six months and this would have to happen before … Continue reading A Day in the Life of a Scrawny Chick With ADD Who Takes Controlled Substances
Parenting Is Like That Old-School Rap Song From Eighth Grade
Where to begin . . . I realized on Tuesday, during the bewitching hour (that would be anytime from 5ish pm until my little ones are deeply slumbering), that Wednesday was a holiday. Which means. . . NO SCHOOL! I'm slowing getting used to a new school schedule that's vastly different from our former school … Continue reading Parenting Is Like That Old-School Rap Song From Eighth Grade
More Yoga Action
What have you learned about yourself in your time on earth? I ponder this question frequently. For me, this involves looking inward and making decisions based on personal values, strengths, and skills. I also enjoy talking to friends about their path, and though I often fail miserably, I try my best to not infuse my … Continue reading More Yoga Action
Action For November: Superfood Muffin Recipe
For November, I plan to use this space to try out different things, like recipes or going to a new place to have my car serviced, finish my holiday shopping, anything really that I need motivation and accountability to DO. Action. I get bogged down and think too much this time of year, and procrastination … Continue reading Action For November: Superfood Muffin Recipe
A Snippet of Joy – #WGWW
***Updated since yesterday's original post*** The weather has been a bit wonky here, and I spent much of yesterday fighting with my WiFi. I finally gave up and uploaded pics from the mobile WordPress app on my phone and called it a night. Now I'm having trouble editing (reducing the size) of the pictures. Anyway, … Continue reading A Snippet of Joy – #WGWW
WGWW# — In a Slightly Tardy Fashion
I should re-name What's Going Well Wednesday and call it What's Going Well Whenever the Hell I Wanna Tell You 'Cause This is My Blog and Sometimes I Like Channeling My Inner Two-Year-Old. But I suppose that's a tad lengthy... We moved this summer.. We actually closed on our house two days AFTER my children started … Continue reading WGWW# — In a Slightly Tardy Fashion
