Never Too Late

So I decided today it was never too late to start. Sure I heard about the hunt… and yes… I blew it off. I figured… another SL hunt? I just don’t have the energy to pull that off in December along with everything else.
But you may or may not know [...]

Late Night Blog Entry

I hardly ever blog at night. Normally I’m too busy multitasking with the kids and hostessing a gig and plurking and cleaning the kitchen up after dinner and and and…
But this evening… I’m up in our bed… snug under the covers with 2 snoring twins next to me. Ok… really only Rachel is [...]

Happy Anniversary Babe

Cheers to 14 years and counting. Some days it seems like just yesterday we were planning our lives together… and other days… well… those aren’t worth blogging about.
Year 14 is full of all good things. Crazy kids. Pre-teen angst… and all that other stuff will be a given. [...]

Word and deed. Keep a promise. Find the
Time. Forgo a grudge. Forgive an enemy. Listen.
Apologize  if you were wrong.        Try [...]

Wintery Rainy Day…

Thoughts from my email inbox worth keeping… sometimes BeliefNet.com couldn’t be more on target for things I need to ponder…

I like to walk alone on country paths, rice plants and wild grasses on both sides, putting each foot down on the earth in mindfulness, knowing that I walk on the wondrous earth. In such moments, [...]

OK… so Sears stole this…

for an ad campaign… I don’t care… I like it anyway and it totally fits this time of year. As we close the books on 2008 and look to 2009…
What Kind Of World Do You Want?
and then ABC’s The Bachelor for the upcoming season stole this…
What about now?
either way… they are both worth watching [...]

Christmas Wishes

The purpose of art is to create an emotional response in the person that is exposed to that art. And there are three categories of art; bad art, good art and great art. Bad art will elicit no emotional response in the person that is exposed to it, i.e.; a song you hear in an [...]
