Hello Spring, I've Missed You.

Today is Thurs­day. Thurs­days are our garbage day. Luck­ily the garbage col­lec­tors come early to remove the week’s refuse and I don’t have to look at my garbage can sit­ting in the street all day long. I usu­ally pull it back to it’s spot in our back yard while Evan naps. Today was a beautiful […]

Ruffles

I’m sorta in love with ruf­fles these days. It’s a love that’s been grow­ing. A slow burn really, ever since I found this shirt on clear­ance at Tar­get last summer.

That’s not to say that I didn’t always fancy a happy ruf­fle, but when you’re over­weight, ruf­fles aren’t some­thing you can wear very eas­ily. I am […]

Lost Things

I love pretty things.

I love old things.

I love going to flea mar­kets and garage sales trea­sure hunt­ing for pretty things that are old. I love won­der­ing about where these pieces have been. Who loved them. Who lost them.

I love this short film too. Hap­pened upon it serendip­i­tously. (You know my his­tory with that word.)

I also love […]

Mommy The Thinker

This after­noon for the first time in weeks, I sat down at my kitchen counter, turned my play-list up and began writ­ing. Things had been going fairly well, when Soul Asylum’s “Run­away Train” came on. Now, I’ve heard this song many, many times before, but today it was different-this song sparked a ton of ideas […]

Photography: My New Hobby

I have always loved pho­tographs. As a child I was a nat­ural ham, always smil­ing easy for whomever was behind the cam­era. As an adult I still love to smile but I’ve devel­oped an affin­ity for being behind the cam­era. I’m a pretty visual per­son. When I write, I tend to see pic­tures in my […]

More Snow On Its Way

As I write this snow is yet again falling rather heav­ily in big puffy tufts of white from heaven. We’re sup­posed to get another eight to 15 inches tonight on top of the 35 inches we had this week­end. There is a lot of snow out here and it’s not going any­where for a […]

Blizzard Wear Anyone?

We’re in the mid­dle of a bliz­zard in my lit­tle part of the world and I’m totally dressed for it.

I’m wear­ing a choco­late brown Fos­sil hat, green hand made fin­ger­less mit­tens, a gray merino wool scarf –I’ve been wear­ing this scarf a lot this sea­son. It’s my favorite and a “Pale is the New Tan” t-shirt.

Yes. […]
