Yesterday would’ve been a full bottle day if only I drank wine. The day started with one of my children losing their mind - to a degree I’ve not yet had the privilege to witness. So much so that the majority of my morning was spent trying to usher a return of sanity I know that … Continue reading May 6, 2016 Five for Friday

May 4 2016 – Coaching and pitches (not that kind)
Tonight I find myself writing about StrengthsFinder again - trying to get an introductory plug/offer put together. A friend told me that she had a lot of success getting coaching clients by posting a “5 free offer” on a Facebook group. (it’s called that cause you offer five free whatever’s. Also I made it up.) … Continue reading May 4 2016 – Coaching and pitches (not that kind)
May 3, 2016 – Skanky A’s
Removing the habit part of my writing habit is proving difficult. It was hard to wake up every morning at 5:00, but the words would usually come. Even when I couldn’t really share them. It’s nice to sleep another ninety minutes - actually, it’s more than nice. It makes the schedule doable. But it makes … Continue reading May 3, 2016 – Skanky A’s
May 2, 2016 – Exiting the game
I’ve always been a fan superhero stories. Not so much the traditional radioactive spider bites and secretly born on another planet ones, though. I’m more interested in the stories where people are typical, but they’re good at something. And they know it. They’re good at something and they work to develop it until they’re pretty … Continue reading May 2, 2016 – Exiting the game

Forgive me internets, I have sinned. I totally skipped yesterday. Ditched. There came a point where I decided I’d rather miss it, I’d rather feel sad I hadn’t done it, than do it. I was hooked on a TV show instead. Criminal Minds. I’ve never seen that one before, as often as I’ve tried to … Continue reading April 29, 2016 Five for Friday
April 27, 2016 Confessions
Tonight I’m writing from a coffee shop, trying to process my thoughts enough to come up with something coherent to say. I’m a little all over the map. Writing helps me sort it all out and get my head organized. I’ve got my laptop and cranberry-orange-ginger-lemongrass iced tea occupying the table I’m sharing with a … Continue reading April 27, 2016 Confessions
April 26, 2016 – stream of consciousness/curiosity
6:45am: Today is a cleaning day. It MUST be a cleaning day. Last Tuesday was supposed to be cleaning day and it turned out, it wasn’t. This weekend there were supposed to be several cleaning hours and as it turned out, there weren’t. Today must be a cleaning day. If I say this to myself … Continue reading April 26, 2016 – stream of consciousness/curiosity
April 25, 2016 Parenting is hard
You guys. Parenting is hard. I don’t have to tell you this. You already know this. You’ve got kids. You are a parent. Anyone who is a parent knows it’s hard. Nothing really goes the way you expect it will. You figure you’ll be crafty and fun and understanding and your kids will get it. … Continue reading April 25, 2016 Parenting is hard
April 22, 2016 – Five for Friday
It’s been gorgeously warm and sunny all week. This morning we opened the windows to crazy wind, tons of rain and dark, dark skies. Enough that I’ll actually drive the kids to school - which is a pretty rare occurrence. We live in Oregon after all, a little rain on our heads is to be … Continue reading April 22, 2016 – Five for Friday
April 21, 2016
I’ve got nothing today. It’s Thursday again and I’m tired again. Ready to spend the rest of the day on the couch under a blanket catching up on my shows/movies I’ve been meaning to watch. I’m showing up and writing filler. Words with no real meaning or interest, because I never committed to writing meaningful … Continue reading April 21, 2016
