Getting Organized for Cold and Flu Season

KK, so my Village Green ladies and I are supposed to be taking pictures of our homes or things/people in our homes as if they were for a magazine article, and posting them.  So here’s my first one.

And here’s my little mini-article, for good measure:
With the cold and flu season upon us, now is a [...]

Ideal Woman vs. Ideal Me

I’ve been thinking lately (uh-oh!), and I’m beginning to realize that there is a huge difference between my concept of an ideal woman, and the actual best version of me.  Here is a comparison – Ideal Woman is who I believe I’m supposed to be, and Ideal Me is what I imagine myself doing while [...]

I’m not really acing this NaBloPoMo thing this year…

Great Post

So I have this really great post planned.  Actually, it’s a series.  I was thinking it through and gathering some data for it yesterday.  Pretty excited.
Then I threw up this morning, at about 5:45am.  And the rest of the day has gone accordingly.
Dan was kind enough to take a day off work to care for [...]

Lazy Saturday

Saturdays are better with StumbleUpon.

So here you go.  Happy Saturday!

It’s over there!

My post for today is right here.

*hangs head in shame*

Second, a real, super-awesome post later today.  Or at least moderately awesome.  I [...]

Faith in Humanity

Someone told me that America wasn’t ready for a black President.
Someone told me that our nation was too full of hate.
Someone told me that the South was still too full of bigotry.
Someone told me that there were more distrustful white folks than decent color-blind people in the US of A.
That someone was wrong.
Someone told me [...]

A description

The easiest thing to do right now would be to talk about the election.  I’ve thought through several election-related posts, but the thing is, you guys are probably all electioned-out right now.
So, instead, I’ve decided that I will describe someone.  Someone dear to me.
When you look at her, the first thing you see is strength.  [...]

Looking for Ideas

My chiropractor gave me an assignment today:
Come up with a regular exercise routine that I can do with (or despite) the girls.
I have a few magazine articles with some individual body-sculpting poses I want to do, but it’s not enough to put together a whole routine that would up my heart rate and leave me [...]
