Why is it, I wonder, that I can't seem to be able to get one of those weeks, you know the kind, the ones that when someone asks you - how was your week? You answer - great! It was just great! the kind of weeks that only other people have. Why is it my weeks are always mixed? I can't remember one honest "great" I gave. Yes, I lie.
The past ten days where half-term vacation for the kids, and last night...

So, What Do You Do All Day?
This week I got asked the one question I absolutely hate being asked - "so, what do you do all day?" I can't remember a time in the last 10 years, ever since I left the mainstream career advancement path, that I did not hate or dread this question.

We have a Facebook friend, she isn't really a real-life friend, who's daughter...

The Thing About Kids...
My brother and sister in law were supposed to come over yesterday, but had to cancel on the last moment due to a food poisoning incident (not ours. You don't get food poisoning from eating too much Ben & Jerry's). My brother & sister in law are in this stage of definitely thinking about maybe they will for sure have kids sometimes in the future. It led me...

A Thank You Moment
Wow. I am so so so happy right now. So many people read my last post, I got comments, likes, +1s, it looks like this positive thing really works! So I just wanted to say thank you to everyone.
This blog has changed quite a bit from July to now, and to tell you the truth I am still not sure what I want it to be when it grows up. Every post is like a mystery to me, I know where I start it but I am never...
