2006 wrap-up…meme style.
Today is the last day of 2006. It has been an amazing year. Truly. The best part of the year? Has been realizing that I’m capable of a lot more than I give myself credit. I switched jobs and professions. I ran a half-marathon. I learned how to drink wine that does not come in a box. I bought boots with heels taller than half-an-inch. I fell more in love with my husband a 100 times over as I watch him grow as a father. I made a photo set of some of my favorite photos from... Read More
Merry Christmas!
For those of you who doubt how hard we try to make Christmas with LilZ seem “real” even though we can’t do it on the 25th, know that he was knocking on my door 15 minutes ago begging to open presents.

Just sitting there…almost dazed. There were also 5 babies to that one teacher in that room. Part of the reason we chose this daycare was that they did BETTER than what the state mandated (5 babies/teacher) and set the rule that their facility would only have... Read More
The internet is dead today.
Man. The internet is weird today – I can’t see my Google Reader to tell me if you’ve updated your site (Did you update today? Let me know so I can read your latest!), none of my TV News sites are posting during the holidays, and people just seem bored in cyberworld. There’s just not much going on. So – how about a meme? Of course Darren didn’t tag me to do this but I saw it on his site. I’m fairly certain I’ve done this before,... Read More
