Romance so hot...it melts your Heart

Amusing Wisdom

I just couldn’t let the milestone of Little Boy Blue’s high school graduation go by without showing some of the pictures. This week I’ve got some words of wisdom I knew an 18 year old male could really appreciate. (And no, these aren’t mine, I found them from some anonymous person on the internet.) 1. If [...]

Glad College Grad

Last weekend we celebrated Beautiful Girl’s college graduation. It was tiring and amazing and long and wonderful. So this week I thought I’d share thirteen things about graduation. 1. Getting to the football stadium 2 hours early guarantees you both good seats and a wicked sore butt! 2. Beautiful Girl should have stood on the [...]

A Whole Lot of Nothing

Sorry about the lack of blogging over the weekend. You’d think I could find 15 minutes to jot a little something down. I mean yesterday I was remiss in not giving a shout out to my mothers! I love them both. My own mom is amazing. She raised 5 kids, ( I really wanted to [...]

Okay, okay, I'm up already …

There is no denying my head has been faaarrrr away from all things writing. I’ve ignored my blog, turned my nose up at marketing, and writing new words? Puh-leeeease.

In the three years he’s been there he’s worked himself [...]

There’s a nice rhthym (okay, and sometimes … insane scheduling) that ebbs and flows through the house when the kids are in school. But [...]

Test Drive – Week #11

I don’t know how many people are swinging by to check out my short story, Test Drive. It’s nearly finished … and I don’t mean to disappoint, but this week my “test drive” is going to Massachusetts to see Pretty Girl! If you’re reading this on Saturday, DH and I are winding our way through western [...]

Reclaiming What is Rightfully Mine

Are the holidays really over? The drooping branches and growing pile of pine needles beneath my poor Christmas tree claim that its glory has come and gone. Of course the lights, still on a timer, happily twinkle on beginning at 3:37 pm and click off promptly at 10:12 pm.  The stockings that hung with care are now strewn hap-hazardly about [...]
