Twenty-Five Years Ago Today

Five years ago today, I posted this. I’m reposting it now because reasons. Mainly that I was thinking about it this morning and so I shared it with my English classes. I cried when I read it to them – not for sadness, but because my heart was leaking love for all the people in

This (past) week

I know I’m one of the only people in the world who still blogs, and the other one is the Pioneer Woman, so let’s just say I’m in good company. But I do try to get in more posts than this (hello, last week! How’ve you been?). Allow me to walk you through my life

Feeling Olympic?

If you’ve hung around here at all, you’ll not be surprised that we don’t watch much television. But this week, um. Much television.

Tell Me A Story

Did you know that when my first Kids were very small, I used to live in fear of the words, “Tell me a story”? Well, I did. I would read to them all day and all night and love every second of it. (Except for maybe the Cat. I have issues with the Cat.) But

It’s about Today, and 20 years ago…

Today, kids, is my 20th (twentieth) year high school reunion. You know that feeling, the one that you catch a glimpse of yourself in a photo or the mirror or the car window and you gasp and go, “Holy stink, when did I get so old?” The answer is Today. (For me. Not for you.

Today is the Day…

Hooray — it’s time to get moving. Bills are paid. A few meals planned. Snacks purchased. Car vacuumed,  full of gas and oil. Windows clean. That’s right — road trip! Kid 1 and I are off to drive through the desert to party it up in Vegas. (That sounds way more sketchy than it really
