I set myself the goal of just 12 books this year. I had 15 to choose from. I ended up completing 7. I'm disappointed in myself for the most part, but you know my life was just a little crazy this year (I totally blame having a kid for throwing me off my game). I… Continue reading 2019 Resolution Review

Musing: Daycare
Remy is six months old. He has been in daycare for two weeks now and I have thoughts. My mother has a brilliant approach to life choices like “daycare vs Stay at Home Mom (SHM)” questions - there are always trade-offs. There isn’t necessarily a right answer, they both can be right and wrong in… Continue reading Musing: Daycare
Tech: The Tablet Hunt
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
Politics: GA “Heartbeat” bill
I almost didn't publish this post. I'm nervous to post anything about this. But if I can't post this when I am on maternity leave - when can I? I am so ashamed of my state. I am ashamed of every representative who voted for this bill. I am ashamed of every voter who voted… Continue reading Politics: GA “Heartbeat” bill
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
And now… something different!
I decided this weekend to play in Paint 3D. I am no graphic artist - this is NOT my forte, but I had fun.
