And it’s late in the evening, and I’m short on time. So, for this monumental event, I’ll share with you the oddest thing I saw all day.
I’m a Capricorn. And this is creepy.
Did you know there was a Minnesota Association of Rogue Taxidermists? Well, you do now.
Behold, my powers of parenting and artistry combined! Quake in fear!
(Also, check it! I didn’t realize it until later, but I used lots of consummate Vs! That’s how you can tell it’s a real dragon.)
should come up soon, right? Or else, this will just be free writing for about ten minutes, til I get sick of typing. This is the kind of junk I used to do back when I tried to do The Artist’s Way by Julia Cameron. She had a lot of good ideas in that book, […]
It starts tonight! If you can watch it, do so! We had been planning on driving up to the north a little bit, perhaps into the mountains, to see what we could see. I even marked my calendar for this event, too. Of course, there’s a gigantic cloud cover blanketing all of Alabama for all […]
Sometimes being a parent is gratifying.
Today, when the boys were getting a bit too rambunctious, I suggested the boys go play outside. Both of their faces immediately fell, and I knew something was up. They told me that they didn’t want to go outside, because the little girl who lived next door wasn’t their […]
Life goes on, right? My husband lost his job yesterday. There’s a lot of stuff that I need to rethink, since my classes at UAB are no longer going to be free. I was already struggling with prioritizing properly anyway, and everything got ever so much more complicated that it already was. I assume I’ll […]
Close to it, anyway.
For today’s post, I bring you pictures! These are the freckly arms of my family, all marked up for To Write Love On Her Arms Day!
At least 15 people I know participated, and a lot of them were doing simply to show me they cared. That helped me through a rocky […]
Tomorrow, probably a million people will be writing the word “LOVE” on their arms. To Write Love On Her Arms is a movement that started in 2006, in an effort to help a suicidal girl who had been turned out of a treatment center because she was too high […]
Recently I heard of a story of someone who was anti-war cutting a yellow ribbon off of a tree because the support of a war disgusted him. Setting aside the fact that anyone who is anti-war should want to bring troops home, that kind of sentiment is far too common. The military is perceived as […]
The idea of career and passion has been on my mind since I can remember thinking about what I wanted to be when I grew up. I was told at an early age that I could be anything I wanted, and to follow my dreams. As I got older, my dreams did not divert from the male-dominated […]
