It was a weekend for the memory books and therefore the blog! Friday: Mom took us to the Ford House and it was beautiful. It’s hard to believe people lived so luxuriously not that long ago. I certainly experienced some envy and a desire to have a formal dress requirement for dinner… Aunt Mikki remembers … More Weekend Update
I keep searching for the things I want to say and remember about this month but since it feels like a nightmare I don’t want to remember any of it…. I’m numb, empty, literally sick to my stomach. I feel disappointment, anger, and fear. I feel responsible because I donated and volunteered but clearly not … More Now we go high
It’s easy to take the little moments for granted. So here are some weekend highlights. Friday Mr. B watched Lucas and we had dinner and watched BSG. B came over for some Lucas cuddles. Danny and I started Luke Cage. Saturday Lucas and I visited Cara on bedrest. Lucas had some fun with Uncle Matt, he also … More At A Glance
Well it’s May. I go back to work at the end of the month. I try not to think about it too much but the lump in my throat is always there. Once I’m back at work, weekends are going to have a special meaning I haven’t felt since gradeschool and I want to start … More At A Glance
“Sometimes when I think he’s the biggest jerk in the world and then he’ll do something funny, and I’ll laugh and I’ll think to myself, ‘Oh, that’s why I married him.’” That quote alone makes me want to see this documentary. I think it’s a perfect summary of marriage. 112 Weddings is the work of … More Marriage
Five years ago today I was a nervous wreak. I’d been crushing on Danny for weeks and now we were finally going on a date. I remember rollerblading in the late afternoon and getting a call from him that he had a stomach ache (an omen). I was sure it was an excuse and he … More Five Years Later
I’m all about happiness. It’s not always easy to be happy. However, I believe it’s a choice and that if you chose to view things positively happiness will come. As a person who can suffer from blue periods I know it’s not always easy to do but it is worth it. Currently, I’m very happy … More #100HappyDays
Jimmy Fallon started his reign as The Tonight Show host last week and Danny and I caught up this weekend. Jimmy’s introduction was very sweet. He reminisced about when he was a kid he use to beg his parents to let him stay up to watch the monologue and then kept to the side of … More The Tonight Show
I’m a grown-up. The process started when I turned 25. For years I was mistaken for an intern at least once a week on the elevator and suddenly it stopped. I felt different and looked relatively different but I was still insecure and uncertain about things. For an inexplicable reason in the past couple weeks … More It’s Official….
We had some more parenting practice this weekend. Three days with our godaughter Gwen. She’s a doll and the best baby to practice with. She’s mild mannered but she didn’t make it all easy. Sunday she was quite fussy but I appreciated the experience of a semi-inconsolable baby. I learned a lot of things this … More Parenting Practice Take II
