Leave the dishes.
For the past few weeks I’ve been emotionally unsettled, off balance and vulnerable. I have blamed it to the post vacation funk that I used to finding myself muddling through when I return to work after time off. I’ve also blamed it on the added stress that I’ve been encountering in my professional [...]

One of the things that didn’t happen while I was on vacation the past two weeks was reading. Not everyone is a reader so not everyone will get why that’s such a big deal. I on the other hand am a reader. I’m not a prolific reader like some book bloggers that I follow that [...]

(Aside)
Few things in my life are more humbling than my 3 year old daughter. She [...]

My ex husband used to say that I was a perfect wife when I lost my voice. If we were still married this morning would have been one of those “perfect wife” days.
I decided to keep the my little buddy with me. Mostly because I didn’t feel up to driving her to the babysitter’s house [...]

So far I’ve started 2009 by not showering. Which is in complete opposition to the fact that I started 2008 by showering. I’ve always been superstitious about the start of a New Year. I’ve had this illogical belief (is that what a superstition is or is a superstition based in logic? It doesn’t matter this [...]

The end of the year is approaching.
In 2008 I participated in a 50 book challenge. I knew going into it there was no way that I would meet that goal. (Hello, defeatist attitude!!) It was a nice challenge to see just how much I could read in a year and even though I’ve only read [...]
