When I woke yesterday morning, I headed to a local coffee shop for a cup of organic coffee and a plate of home fries. This is turning into my Saturday morning routine. I have not figured out how to get school stuff done in my house without being constantly interrupted – or how to avoid [...]

Can you guess the moral of this story?
When stepping out into the “real world,” that is, the world outside of my house, there are a lot of unwritten rules for different situations. For example, I can’t move quite as freely at a job because there are different expectations placed on me (eh, like professionalism) [...]

I don’t discriminate between modes of knowing. – Henry Fool
I had been having an internal battle regarding intellectual pursuits and personal growth. Being un[der]educated, heh, these two things seemed REALLY separate to me – even though I could fully recognize that they indeed affect one another.

Monday, was a tough day.
I am normally in the back yard with Max, but on Monday, I let him go it alone. Bella was on the porch (with door shut so she couldn’t wander outside) and I was walking between our downstairs area and the porch where Max could be monitored. Well, I [...]

Turns out, Max did have a post virus rash. WHEW! I’m happy to report that the pediatrician visit on Friday, was not stressful. Both the kids were well behaved and charmed the staff with their manners and antics. Taking them places is slowly but surely getting easier.

New Years Resolutions, 2009′…
Less computer time. Yeah, working on UN-plugging from my laptop and plugging back into my life and my children. I’ll post as much as I need, but it will get done first thing in the morning, then… time to turn off and put away the laptop. I have a journal and marker [...]

Ten Things I’m Grateful For…
The growing awareness and love for my body. It’s almost time for my red power to flow and I can see her like a tsunami coming straight at me. I’m riding the wave forward, moving with her so as to catch the ride before she totally controls my moves. So many [...]
