ALL LIFE DEMANDS STRUGGLE. THOSE WHO HAVE EVERYTHING GIVEN TO THEM BECOME LAZY, SELFISH, AND INSENSITIVE TO THE REAL VALUES OF LIFE. THE VERY STRIVING AND HARD WORK THAT WE SO CONSTANTLY TRY TO AVOID IS THE MAJOR BUILDING BLOCK IN THE PERSON WE ARE TODAY.
i am not going to lie. i am overwhelmed. i thought i was busy before babyA, what with monkey & B & school & work, but as i stood at my kitchen sink last night, hand washing the thousand pieces of dr. brown’s bottle parts and the hundreds of pieces to my nursing equipment & prepping bottles […]
DEFIANCE…
July 29, 2012
well, hello. apparently, i have been a neglectful blog bitch, seeing as how i wrote my last post… oh… i am too lazy to actually go back and look. nevertheless, really, i do have a handful of drafts i seemingly abandoned b/c… apparently… i am a neglectful blog bitch. so, where do i begin? maybe, […]
WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU THOUGHT OF ME? OR HAVE YOU COMPLETELY ERASED ME FROM YOUR MEMORY? I OFTEN THINK ABOUT WHERE I WENT WRONG. THE MORE I DO, THE LESS I KNOW…
August 2, 2011
dear mom: i thought this year’s anniversary would be different. i admit, i didn’t cry yesterday. or the day before. though each and everyday for the past two weeks, i’ve felt a painful twinge right here, in my heart. when i woke this morning without doubling over in sadness, i figured i could perhaps make […]
PHOTO 365 – DAY 116: CARDS AFTER DEATH…
July 2, 2011
i hate shopping for greeting cards. i inevitably run across the ONE section i so very miss choosing cards from. DAY ONE HUNDRED and SIXTEEN: the MOM section… i used to buy my mom a card every month or two, for no reason at all, in addition to the holiday & bday ones. i loved […]
PHOTO 365: DAY 102 – EXHAUSTED…
June 18, 2011
it’s been a rough few days. i’ve been on some new medication (for all of my non-bloggy [maybe later bloggy], private stuff, of course. but don’t worry. i’m not dying!) and i’ve yet to adjust. so far, i’m pretty sure they work fabulously. that is, until they wear off. and then i’m just… uncomfortable or […]

DAY SIXTY NINE – please allow me to introduce you to the ugli fruit… pretty ugly, huh? in fact, the uglier it is, the tastier it is. it’s sort of a cross between an orange and a sweet grapefruit… (yea, they’re wrong). my mom and i used to come across these when we went on […]

April 6, 2011
on march 25th, i watched silly monkey walk down the steps and into his dad’s car. he just returned home today – nearly two weeks later. and i have missed the bajeezus out of him. in fact, i can barely stop hugging him and telling him “i love you”. it was a painful two weeks. […]

DAY TWENTY SEVEN: i hear the grocery store is an excellent place to meet people. in fact, yummy michael vartan met his new bride at a whole foods store. i don’t hold out much hope of this happening to me, considering my grocery store conversations usually go like this… him: wow… me: wow, what? him: […]

GOING BACKWARDS…
February 8, 2011
well that didn’t go as planned. over the past month or so, a friend of mine has been sorta kinda seeing this guy (and yes. she tells me everything!!). they’ve known each other since high school, but weren’t really friends. he apparently saw her from afar, but she always had a crappy boyfriend of some […]
