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

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

That lovely picture of my precious children on that beautiful beach in my earlier post was a direct result of the behavior wise Glennon describes in the link above. Yesterday, I … Continue reading Was Procreating In My Best Interest? And a Lovely Link
Tuesday Snark: Things I Wish I Could Say
I'm hibernating these days. I'm keeping my hat on and my head down in the school drop-off lane. I'm declining all those glorious PTA committee chair requests -- 'Why, no, as much as I'd love to sell Krispy Kremes or head up the Second Grade Fun Run, I have to pass. Thanks so much for … Continue reading Tuesday Snark: Things I Wish I Could Say

Seriously, you guys, I was excited to post this week since I missed last week, but I'm all mixed up (obviously!!!) and realized this morning that . . . today is actually Thursday. Here is my disclaimer: A LOT is going well, but other things not so much -- for instance, Wallace was the first … Continue reading What’s Going Well. . . Wait! What Day is It?!
In Case You’ve Ever Been Curious About Feline Genitalia…
Wallace: "Mom, are cat balls also called testicles?" Me: "Hmmm...that's a great question, Wal." I'm a pro at buying myself time. "I'm not sure, but I assume they are." For the moment, I'm regretting being so forthcoming with my children about sex and body parts. My goal was to normalize bodies and explain things in … Continue reading In Case You’ve Ever Been Curious About Feline Genitalia…

The World According to Piers and Wallace
Happy weekend! I'm fighting a sinus infection and enjoying the opportunity to be utterly unproductive. There is so much I want to write but it's not happening. The pounding head. The pressure in my face. It's beyond distracting. I spent most of yesterday afternoon in bed, counting the minutes until Gil walked through the door … Continue reading The World According to Piers and Wallace
