Tracy & Kel of The Dao of Doing are two of my very favorite ladies on the planet. Back in April they spent a week counting down the five most important things you can do when starting to do what you love. I have been following their blog for a really long time now, and […]
What’s Up Wenzday 07/25/12
What’s Up Wenzday Point #1: A note of clarification — Not sure I have anything to clarify this week. No one has really pissed me off too much. You’ve all been really great, earthlings. Thank you for that. No, for realz. On a similar, upbeat note, I am ecstatic that my children are both back […]
What’s Up Wenzday & Aubrey Jones Update
What’s Up Wenzday: Baby Aubrey Jones Needs Us. Please continue to keep my dear friend, neighbor, & previous coworker Lindsey Warner-Jones in your thoughts.

Am I a Writer or a Blogger? Challenge Accepted…Writing My Story is a Sad One. I have been feeling extremely guilty about the sorry state of the book on which I’m supposedly working. I have exactly two chapters completed, only three pages of which have undergone outside critique. That’s not exactly the sign of a […]
Let the Commencements Commence
Let the Commencements Commence My little baby boy graduates from high school tonight. I know I’m not the only mom on the planet with tears in my eyes this season, so I won’t go into how emotional this milestone has made me. Graduating a kid is a big deal, and don’t let anyone tell you […]
Depression is a Lying Bitch, Wouldn’t You Say?
Depression is a Lying Bitch, Wouldn’t You Say? Self-Improvement is a lot of work, and that’s kind of not really fair. Admittedly, sometimes a wreckage is our own fault. For example, I need to shed fifty pounds. Because I am a lazy slob who let myself go. Totally my own fault. Well, and […]
