My tablet is dying. I have finally had to admit it doesn't hold much charge, the bluetooth keyboards can not manage to stay connected (yes, I have 2 and both of them are in bad shape too). I do NOT want to do this, but Eli is pretty sure my tablet was purchased in 2013… Continue reading Tech: The Tablet Hunt

Prayers Please
I took all the animals to the vet a few weeks ago. I took Riley on Monday and the cats that Wed. Mostly good. Except Genkii has a lump. Vet took a sample, put it on a slide to see if it was a cyst or cancer. It came back cancer. So Genkii is going… Continue reading Prayers Please
Life Event: Birth (Part 2)
So the second reason it took so long to get back to blogging is after little Remy was born, we spent an extra 4 days in the hospital. You see, Remy had jaundice. This isn't entirely uncommon (apparently). The pediatrician explained that it takes a few days for the liver to "boot up" in a… Continue reading Life Event: Birth (Part 2)
Life Event: Birth!
There are several reasons this post has taken more than a minute. My son, Remy, was born April 5th at 9:42pm. Woot! Fair warning - I am going to talk about medical stuff that is kind of gross to some people. If you don't like knowing the details of medical procedures, reactions to such procedures,… Continue reading Life Event: Birth!
Life Event: 3rd Trimester
I have been in the 3rd trimester awhile now, but it finally "got interesting" (which isn't a good thing in pregnancy). We were doing great until about two weeks ago when my blood pressure spiked. I won't say there wasn't a catalyst (there was), but it also wasn't entirely without merit. The doctor has been… Continue reading Life Event: 3rd Trimester
2018 Resolution Review
My goal for 2018 was to say "yes" to life. I think I succeeded in some ways and still fell down in others. But overall, I feel like 2018 was a "win" on this resolution. I didn't write as much as I wanted. But I forgave myself that because I wasn't prioritizing it over friends,… Continue reading 2018 Resolution Review
Writing: NaNoWriMo
Le sigh. I want to do NaNoWriMo but with everything going on in my life.... hell 500 words a day has been challenging much less 1,667. I am pregnant which is one of the most exhausting experiences of my life. The only other time(s) in my life I slept this much was when I was SICK -… Continue reading Writing: NaNoWriMo
Life Events: Announcement!
I have literally composed and re-composed this post at least three times. I don't know how to say this. It's much more "personal" than I usually post, but it's too big not to post (and might impact posts down the line) so.... Yeah. That's mine. Right now it's tiny. Hell, in 7 more months it will… Continue reading Life Events: Announcement!
Review: Reviewing Reviews by a Reviewer
I am wrapping up a project at work that has kind of consumed my life for the past few months (hence the super-sporadic posting). I have been a bit manic about when/how/what I post. Hence there have been a few weeks where I got stuff scheduled the weekend before or managed to keep up with… Continue reading Review: Reviewing Reviews by a Reviewer
Life Events: Haircut
March 3rd (I know, I'm late - I got sick!) I got my hair cut. I chopped off about 14 inches (it was 13.75 inches - so i'm rounding up). I took before, during and after pictures: This isn't the first time I've done this "rapid transformation" so to speak. Every three or four years I… Continue reading Life Events: Haircut
