In my younger days, I loved the idea of a new beginning. I adored change and the chance to be different. But I mostly stayed the same, which made New Year resolutions perfect. I was supposed to fail within the month. In my older days (as in today) I feel more introspective this new year. [...]

Each year a few days after Christmas, Scott and I sit down and plan our charitable giving. We donate throughout the seasons as people and groups need support, but we also like to end each year by giving thanks for all we have.  And we decided a long time ago that the best way to [...]

Nugget the Cat photo

I stayed away from the SPCA for 10 months, and a cat found me at Pet Smart (well, the non-profit cat foster program within the store). My son looks at Scott while the 4-month-old kitten licks his face: I think he wants to be in our family. Within 24 hours, I take it to Facebook [...]

Have a fantastic Christmas if you celebrate. If you don’t, enjoy the movies and Chinese food and free cookies from all the people who assume you do. And all of you should watch our ridiculous holiday singing video with love from my family to yours. It’s safe for work, kids and any time you need [...]

By now, you’ve read about Kmart. Random people have paid off stranger’s Kmart layaway in time for Christmas. The anonymous generosity is spreading from city to city, but the story that remains with me is of a woman who stood at the layaway line and paid for 50 families, 2 carts worth of toys and [...]

Bowl of crap photo

I was cleaning out the random bowl of crap that is meant to only have our car keys in it when I found a lollipop, and not the crappy Dum Dums my hairdresser and doctor palm off on my kids. This baby was a fantastical gum-in-the-center genius pop. I look right. I look left. I [...]

I haven’t showered in 3 days and I’m usually okay with that but I have to try on bridesmaid dresses in the evening so I haul the kids upstairs and settle them into playing a board game called Please Don’t Eat My Lipstick as I jump in the shower. After soaping up the essentials, I [...]

When I began blogging, I read one blog, Dooce, and I had only found her two months prior. I had no idea there was a community and a ranking system and support and cliques and friends and frenemies and conferences. Blogging is found at the intersection of personal and business, ideas and reality, fans and [...]
