Happy New Year’s Resolutions

What are your plans for the new year? I’ve been slow to get mine solidified, but I’ve got a hazy idea going, so I’ll share. Most of mine revolve around two things: my kids and writing. Of course there’s the obligatory “eat less junk food” goal that I have every year, too, but the kid-focus […]

Sledding!

Hello, Fellow Reader. I probably should have been writing this Christmas break. I have a really ambitious publishing plan this upcoming year. However, there was SNOW! So I went sledding most of the day Monday. It’s my favorite! And it never happens.   When I was a kid, I lived in southern Idaho. Snow happened pretty muchfrom […]

“Falling for TJ Maxx”aka “Most Embarrassing Moments: Recent Edition”

This is the “most embarrassing moments: recent” edition of my blog. If you’re not in the mood to cringe, move along. Nothin’ to see here. So, on Friday last week I went to the city (we live two hours out of any “real” town) for an appointment. Of course I also saw it as a […]

No Hippo, Please

Hello, Reading Friends. It’s been a week of local Christmas music concerts. First was the middle school, then the elementary school. Sunday night was the community’s presentation of “The Messiah”—which we go to every year and which, I think, had the best solos this time—and next week will be the high school. Love them!  Well, mostly. […]

Big ’80s Hair, Please

I went to visit my parents at my childhood home this weekend, and my mom has been cleaning things out. She handed me a shopping bag full of old curling irons to take home for my daughters to use. They were ecstatic. Last night my 13yo curled my 11yo’s hair with one that had a barrel […]

A True True-Love Story

I have a true love story for you today. It’s about my sweetheart, Gary. Of course. Four or five years ago, I bought a silk blouse at a consignment shop. It’s so pretty, dark purple, long sleeves, tailored lines, soft as, well, silk. When I wear it, I feel … thin, smart, together. Everyone needs […]

Have I Bored You to Death Yet About my Birthday?

Did I tell you about my birthday? More appropriately I should ask, have I bored you to DEATH yet about my birthday? I actually can’t believe how much I have talked about it this year. It’s weird, like I’m possessed by a birthday-carer or something. Anyway, doesn’t matter. I have to tell you about my husband’s gift! […]
