Crazy-Amazing

Some days you want to forget, you hear me? And then there are days like yesterday. I never want to forget yesterday. Because Amazing, is why. So I got called down to the principal’s office, which is usually a good thing, but somehow it still has the power to make me a little nervous. (Full

Wrapping

(As in Wrapping up the Year. I’m not still doing presents the Day After.) Christmas was lovely and precious and fun and very nearly perfect. After a very not white November and December, we got inches of powdery snow for Christmas morning. Couldn’t have been more pretty. We did happy presents – lots of the

Refocusing the Energies

There are times when I find it very easy to huddle on the floor in fetal position feeling overwhelmed by Life. Today I started behaving myself like a grownup. (I’m sure you’re clapping for me.

Happy Making

Here are things that make me happy. My Husband, he whom I adore, has decided he will love 30 Rock. Oh, the joy. “I want to go to there.” My Kid 1 came home for hours and hours on Saturday. We loved all over her. I bought a pair of pants. Stretchy, skinny ones. They

Shall We Discuss Virginia Woolf?

Oh, Virginia. I tried to love you, back in my younger days. I read something of yours that someone suggested and I didn’t get it and I moved away, like you were some strange spicy curry that my thoughts weren’t ready to taste and enjoy. But today, today you have filled my whole soul up

Satisfaction

I’m going to tell you this thing that’s true right now, but isn’t always. But right now it’s true (like I may have mentioned) and so I will share it, because it’s good to be true. I am satisfied. I like my life. I enjoy the people with whom I share my days and nights,
