Diapers, Disasters and Delicious Goodies…
Traveling with a toddler is always a unique experience…. no two trips are the same but they are always a lesson in patience, endurance, and ingenuity. This trip was no different. J and I set out on Thursday night, driving up to just north of Atlanta to see my brother and cut the trip into [...]
Fence me In, Please.
Today, I am getting a fence around my back yard. I haven’t been this excited about something since law school graduation… y’all, tomorrow morning when my puppy yelps to go out? I JUST HAVE TO OPEN THE DOOR!! This is post-worthy on so many occasions, not the least of which is that every morning for [...]
Super Me
For whatever reason, lately J has been really into superheroes. We don’t watch Spiderman or Batman or anything like that, but he is constantly talking about them anyway. One of the things I did when I was desperate for time alone at work when he was out of daycare sick was download the entire first season [...]
Karma?
It occurred to me on Friday that I had not had any type of conversation with the Easter Bunny about what he would be bringing my child. Since I don’t have anyone in-house to keep J while I … ahem, meet, I hired a baby sitter to come on Saturday so I could have a [...]
Perfection
Today, J and I went to a park. When we arrived, we were the only ones there and the sun was high in the sky. Rather than sit out in the sweltering heat, we hiked off into the woods and down the trail labeled “Pond.” It was only about a half mile walk, but we [...]
Moving Forward
Last night, my ex-husband wanted to Skype with J. We called but J wasn’t really interested. Finally, ex told J he loved him and I told J to say the same. Instead, J said “No, you tell daddy you love him!” And in one quick moment… in one quick smile… I realized that I no [...]
When Being a Mom Totally Rocks
I am proud of my son every day. Every day he does something else that makes me wonder how I got so lucky as to have him; every day he reminds me that I am so far beyond blessed that there isn’t even a word for it. Don’t get me wrong, he can be rotten. [...]
Dating and the Single Mom
I’ve been struggling this week, looking for the right balance of who I’m supposed to be and who I really am. See, when you start dating again after you thought your dating life was over, there is this chasm between the person you are expected to be “on the dating scene” and the person you [...]
Happy
Oh where to begin. I have had the most epic awesomeness of a day in the history of epic awesome days. It started out slowly, just trying to get things in line for my mediations. Around 10:30, my boss summoned me to her office which made me … slightly nervous. But wait, what was this? [...]
Just one of those Days…
I have started and stopped no fewer than four blog posts today. Part of my problem is that I want to whine and complain yet I feel entirely too blessed to justify any of it. I want to stomp my feet and rail about how my day was long and my clients were unhappy. I [...]
