Okay, so. I’m always at a serious loss as to what to write in this here window. It’s kind of my own fault. I’m a little uncomfortable talking about myself. I don’t want to see...
I’m ready for my close-up!
A couple of years ago (has it been that long?) I blogged a list of all the items circling my brain just to try put some of them to rest. It actually worked out pretty well at the time so I’m go...
I’ve posed the idea to others before, and people aren’t always sure what I mean, but I have in my heart a small collection of songs, movies, and even foods that are tied up in the memory ...
Sometimes I think I made myself up.
Mommy’s Little Princess.
Five years ago I wore a pretty ivory dress and tiara. I stood in a courtroom facing the most wonderful man I’d ever met and I couldn’t stop gazing into his eyes. Five years later, I still...
Lu and her new friend….the very fuzzy caterpillar.
I finally found a place other than my arms where she will sleep.
Today on twitter, a trending topic is ‘tweet your 16 year old self’ and it seems most of the people I follow are pretty darned amazing. I started thinking about what I would tell myself a...
I’ve sat here for a little while, with lucinda resting on my chest, trying to think of what i should write about for today’s prompt. Lu is very particular. She doesn’t like laying o...
Alright. So basically I wanted to balance out yesterdays schmaltzy, all-over-the-place, too long; didn’t read, you-need-an-editor post with something a little more thought out and ‘light-...
So here are the prompts for the next 30 days: Day 01 → Something you hate about yourself. Day 02 → Something you love about yourself. Day 03 → Something you have to forgive yourself for. Day 04 → Som...
The past 12 days have been a complete blur. After spending 4 days in the hospital, I feel like I’m 4 days behind on my own life. (which means today would be friday. Awesome.) And I guess that f...
Introducing Lucinda Maria! Thursday October 7, 2010 at 8:43 am. 7lbs, 6oz. 20 inches long. After a 36 hour stay in the NICU for TTN, Little miss Lu was given the clear to move to the regular nursery ...
My husband is a smart man. Very smart. He doesn’t update his blog with sentence fragments. He doesn’t have a blog. That latter point there is pretty much the proof pudding that he is smar...
I was up half of the night (re: 2:47 am to 4:34am) because I was so hopelessly uncomfortable. Were I not nine months pregnant, it would be easier to relieve what ailed me. Take a fistful of different...
Before: After:
This post has been brought to you by Random Tuesday Thoughts. My child-in-utero hates the sound of running water and makes me pay for it every time I shower or wash the dishes. Clearly this is an exc...
…the “Worst Mommy Ever” club! James has reached a point in his speech where he can clearly and concisely ask me for the things he wants and needs. “Mommy, Juice please?”...
32 weeks.
I was in the backyard with my kids. It was a beautiful, clear, spring day. I sat in the grass while my son and daughter ran around laughing and screaming the way happy children do. The saturation was...
After a bit of a long and frustrating day, James gave mommy a kiss while having a picnic at the park.
This is a follow-up to my last post. You may want to read it here. Or not. Whatever. ———— 8212;——— When Robert and I began trying for another child, I alway...
So I’m scheduled to have a c-section to bring Lucinda into the world on Thursday October 7th. That’s nearly nine weeks away. In the beginning, I was apprehensive to the idea of simply hav...
I admit that I didn’t quite know how people were going to respond or react to the post I wrote yesterday. And I still don’t know. Are you reeling? Are you annoyed? Did I drag you down int...
Today is my first day off of work in 8 days. I’m pleased. I’m excited. I’m lazy. Outside of getting dressed and possibly going to the library, my only plans for the day were to rela...
Do I accept friend requests from my ex-boyfriends on facebook? Well that all depends. One or two of my ex-boyfriends do not have a facebook (or if they do, I cannot find them), I’ve learned ano...
