When I booked Jen Pastiloff's Manifestation retreat for myself, I wasn't entirely sure what to prepare myself for. I'd been to Jen's one-day workshop, and had my heart cracked open in just a few short hours. I knew that I wanted an excuse/reason to visit Italy again...
We have the keys. To a home that, at times, I thought would never be ours. I'm pretty sure I've had more gray hair appear in the last two months than I've ever had (and this could be in part due to the fact that I'm about to be 33, and 33-year-olds have problems like...
Because if so, sign me up. I need someone to tell me exactly where to go, how to get there, and how to avoid pulling my hair out on the way there. (And if the narrating voice could be David Tennant, that'd be grrrreat.) I've been going through old posts over the last...
One year ago I wasn't in a very good place. I was struggling mentally, physically and emotionally. My body was readjusting to my new normal after giving up breastfeeding Alex, and I spent the first couple months of 2015 in a dark place that I wasn't sure I'd ever get...
My sweet boys.I don't know why I wanted to write a post summing up the last 8 months. Partially so I don't forget (I shamefully admit it's easy for me to do), and I guess the other part is to share. Right now, Grayson has no teeth. Nada. I keep thinking he's going to...
So I've decided to take on the major decision of going back to school to pursue a graduate's degree in secondary education. Why? Because taking care of an infant just isn't enough work on its' own, of course! In all seriousness, this was not an easy decision for me at...
Or: I'm not looking forward to when my children are teenagers. Yesterday while at the nail salon getting a pedicure (because I can no longer reach my own toes), my experience was a little less than fabulous. The ladies at the salon were wonderful, so no problems...
While reading this article on Newsweek, I scrolled down and read this other article, about my generation (18-29 years) and their ability to navigate the current job market.I just wanted to share both, because they both spoke to me. The second article seems to ring...
January 9th, the weekend Georgia had the first snow and laid out sheets of ice on all the roads, was the day I was scheduled to take the GACE Basic Skills portion and the English portion. That morning, when Oscar and I woke up, I couldn’t even leave our driveway,...
I thought maybe it would be good to write a less-baby-centric post every so often. Last year around this time, I was trying to decide whether or not I wanted to start trying for a baby, or go back to grad school. Of course, the baby won, mostly because there's no...
