I have been horribly remiss and haven’t posted here in 5 days – oops. Unfortunately, I’ve had a stomach flu and I’m not one of those prepared, forward thinking people who has blog posts ready for emergencies. I write rather on whim. Maybe this is a sign to stop that. I don’t have much to [...]

The Year In Review – 22 things I’m proud of from 2010
So when it comes to reviewing things, I have this tendency to only focus on what went wrong – the rejection, the failure. I can’t help it. I’m a perfectionist. But at least once, I need to remind myself that I am not as much of a hopeless flake as I think I am. This [...]
Progress: Looking forward & looking back.
I’ve discovered that getting up at 4:30am is actually quite lovely. Jesse’s started a new job at work, working 6:30am morning shifts. Since he has to walk (buses don’t run that early!) he gets up at around 4:30 to be ready in time. I hate waking up alone, so I decided to get up with [...]

You know, the economy and stuff (i.e. The Apocalypse). It was suggested that maybe we wouldn’t be able to leave, that there wasn’t enough money, that there [...]
2009, Thou Shalt Be The Year of Non Suck.
It’s not that 2008 was necessarily a bad year. More like it was a hard year. A year where I noticed that my life was not what I wanted it to be at all, and as a result, went through lots and lots of growing pains. And I mean lots. And loudly. With lots of [...]
Always listen to the happy 93 year old.
She probably knows something you don’t. I met the most marvelous woman this weekend. (This is what I was going to talk about yesterday, before self doubt won out.
