30 DAYS OF THANKFUL: #7…
day seven: i am thankful for the city of columbus, who FINALLY re-opened an additional entrance/exit to/from 670. it made my drive home lots less filled with rage than most days prior.
30 DAYS OF THANKFUL: #6…
November 6, 2012
day six: i am thankful for the ability to pick myself up and laugh. literally. and i am thankful that i have people around me who love me enough to not point and laugh. i am the clumsiest, most uncoordinated person on the planet. you might not ever think so if you saw me in […]
30 DAYS OF THANKFUL: #5…
November 5, 2012
day five: i am thankful for my memory. although it can be cruel {replaying past hurts} or downright nasty {confusing me when i’m mid exam, only to resurface after i’ve already left the classroom}, it never fails to give me what i absolutely need – happiness. i have a virtual bank full of heartwarming thoughts of […]

day four: i am thankful for my reading monkey {no doubt where he gets it!}. not only is he reading at nearly a second grade level – a whole bunch of “levels” ahead of where he needs to be, but he does it b/c he loves it. every night before bed, he reads us a […]

day three: i am thankful for miracles. {ok, so perhaps not in the literal sense or definition of miracles, but miracles none-the-less.} my monkey… a miracle in itself after a devastating loss. my B… a miracle in love, who, just as i, thought forever was no longer a realistic life option. and my babyA… a […]

day two: i am thankful for my wardrobe. i am thankful for my fabulously full, colorful, dotted, striped and diverse wardrobe, which was recently topped off with mass amounts of new dresses, sweaters, tops, skirts & pants {oh my} scored by my wonderful husband & his diligent digging at the latest AF sample sale. and as happy as i can […]

30 DAYS OF THANKFUL: #1…
November 1, 2012
day one: i am thankful for a child who, at age 6.5, will still give me kisses in front of his friends. ***gaaaaasp! whaaaaat!*** in fact, he also freely hugs me and tells me he loves me, in public! and while he is usually super embarrassed if i fix his hair or clean his face, he […]
I AM CERTAINLY NOT AN AUTHORITY ON LOVE B/C THERE ARE NO AUTHORITIES ON LOVE, JUST THOSE WHO’VE HAD LUCK WITH IT AND THOSE WHO HAVEN’T…
October 30, 2012
have you ever sat back and thought… of all the complaining i do, of all the whining i subject my loved ones to, of all the grumpies i force upon those who matter most, is it logical AT ALL that these people still LOVE ME and want to do nothing other than to give me […]

OMG MY BABY IS IN FIRST GRADE!!! today, you are entering the world of real-real school. sure, kindergarten was real school. but first grade begins the path of twelve grades that will teach you, cultivate you and make you realize just how much this world can offer […]

it’s hard to believe i’m nearly half-way through this pregnancy. ok, so if you saw me, perhaps you’d be all… “really, b/c you look about 3/4 of the way through this pregnancy”, but i digress. half-way! it’s probably a good thing that i still have many a weeks before babyA arrives b/c i’m not sure […]
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, […]
