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 […]
THE HEART HATH ITS OWN MEMORY, LIKE THE MIND, AND IN IT ARE ENSHRINED… THE PRECIOUS KEEPSAKES, INTO WHICH IS WROUGHT, THE GIVER’S LOVING THOUGHT…
August 2, 2012
dear mom – i awoke the same this morning as most other mornings of the past few months… with a mad dash to the bathroom. baby bladder. after gathering myself and my thoughts, i headed down to silly monkey’s room to get him up to enjoy a little sunshine before i had to scurry to work. i […]
I CAN’T SLEEP NOW, NO, NOT LIKE I USED TO. I CAN’T BREATHE IN AND OUT LIKE I NEED TO. IT’S BREAKING ICE, NOW, TO MAKE ANY MOVEMENT. WHAT’S YOUR VICE? YOU KNOW THAT MINE’S THE ILLUSION…

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 […]
DECIMUS SECUI: WHY I KINDA SORTA NEED A MAN. BUT NOT REALLY. MAYBE…
May 23, 2011
alternate post title #1 = LOOK! LOOK! I BROKE OUT MY COLLEGE LATIN! alternate post title #2 = IF IT WASN’T COMPLETELY OBVIOUS, I AM CURRENTLY OBSESSED WITH ADELE… today, a friend (who will heretofore be referred to as “the evil one”) sent me a random message telling me, in no uncertain terms, that if i didn’t “collect” a […]
PHOTO 365 – DAY 57: I AM NOT 32…
May 4, 2011
monkey had a presentation at school (guess who didn’t show up). first, they read a story. then they presented the little gifts. then they sang a song. and then, we had a sugary snack. though, honestly, after monkey presented me with a mommy questionnaire, my heart was too stunned to notice much else. DAY FIFTY […]
PHOTO 365 – DAY 23: TIME…
March 31, 2011
[ok, so i’m breaking the rules. or re-creating them. considering i’ve been too busy over the past few days to post the photos i took for days 20-22, it’s not likely that i’ll get through all 365 days of taking photos and actually posting them on THAT day. so this will have to suffice. b/c […]
WHEN YOUR MOTHER ASKS, “DO YOU WANT A PIECE OF ADVICE?”, IT IS A MERE FORMALITY. IT DOESN’T MATTER IF YOU ANSWER YES OR NO. YOU’RE GOING TO GET IT ANYWAY…

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 […]
PART NINE: WHY I KINDA SORTA NEED A MAN. BUT NOT REALLY. MAYBE…
February 3, 2011
let’s be honest. i am the “what if” girl. i ask a lot of questions and expect a lot of answers to unanswerable questions. rhetorical does not sit well with me. everything has an answer – whether it’s right or not is a totally different issue. there’s really not a whole lot of wiggle room when i’m […]
MY MEMORY IS CRUEL, I’M QUEEN OF ATTENTION TO DETAILS…
September 21, 2010
few things don’t remind me of my mom. in fact, my sister and i have this ongoing “thing” where we challenge each other to find five things that don’t remind us of her. so far, i have… tootsie rolls. yep, regular ‘ol chocolate wax tootsie rolls. and i’m not even sure that i can count tootsie […]
