We all deal with many things....I deal with 3 kids, their activities, my full-time job, and on and on. We all deal with stuff. I deal with this by having secret stashes of chocolate. Don't judge. But, I've got spots all over that I hide chocolate. It wouldn't be beneath... Continue reading

It is my 39th birthday today. I am seriously good with turning 39. I like this age a heck of lot better than 20 years ago. My daughter was asking me a few questions about when my mom died. And she asked me a question that brought me back to... Continue reading

I needed a new challenge. I could use a fitness challenge, but the universe tells me that I need to write. It really could be empty words on a vast space of internet, but it's MY WORDS. I have deemed them important. I will write everyday for a year. It... Continue reading

Will the coughing never end? I can't believe the amount of grossness coming out of my face. The runny nose and the wet cough. It is gross. I am tired of it. I can't seem to get that to quit. It takes me a large amount of tissues to where... Continue reading

I went for a run after 2 days of really sick. I will admit I am still stuffed up and coughing. I realize that others would scoff at my willingness to go for a run at all. I am not under any medication and I feel more like myself. I... Continue reading

Mama is sick or atleast starting to be sick. I have been taking extra vitamin C, anti-cold pills (which I renamed pro-health pills) and drinking lots of water. I feel a bit run down and as always can usually fight it. I saved my running for the evening when I... Continue reading

The girls came home today from the camping weekend. I missed them. We got them home and showered and unpacked. They were all relaxed and looking tired from lack of sleep and tons of fun. They were settled. I didn't even want to go for a run, but silence had... Continue reading

Have you learned anything about me after all these months of blogging? The truth is that I am not one to reveal too much of my heart. It hurts when the words leave my mouth. I can't fathom that words are really enough to explain how the heart feels and... Continue reading

I went running in town. It is dark and cold. I think that I am crazy for running at night in town. I run only on lighted streets which many would probably say is not wise either. I can only go with the hope that I will remain safe and... Continue reading

I prepared for Bee's family birthday. Yes, I know. I do two parties for one child. I've heard the remarks that I am crazy. "Our home is small." I reply. She had a sleepover with her friends which really should be enough. But, the family is large and they all... Continue reading
