Strange fascination, fascinatin’. Ah changes are takin’, the pace I’m going through. - David Bowie Here’s what I know how to do. One foot in front of the other. Grammy always said, “keep on keeping on.” And that’s what I’m doing. However, I think I just need a good cry. Or a vacation (though we [...]
Usually I participate in Wordless Wednesdays posts. However, while looking at my pictures, I realized that there is one picture that I need to write about. Earlier this month I attended my extended family’s biennial reunion. This year, my Mom and I hosted the gathering at a lakeside set of cabins in southwest Colorado. I [...]
I love Wordless Wednesdays. Thank you Angry Julie and Red Lotus Mama for the big share. You gals are awesome!

I forgot to mention one of the coolest and funniest things that has happened to me lately. I’m now a monthly contributor at My Mommy Manual. I literally fell out of my chair when I got the invitation email and then had to stifle some serious laughter when Practical Mommy asked me to write about [...]
I prayed for two boys. I just thought I would be a better mom to boys. Growing up and into adulthood, I’ve always had a lot of guy friends. I understand guys. They are simple creatures.
