I am surrounded by small stuff.
“Don’t sweat the small stuff.” Is something you have never had to tell me. Small stuff? What the fuck is small stuff? […]
The Vision Board… Less Stupid Than I Assumed.
So, I made a fucking vision board. It was like a craft project, which I've never really had the patience for. Ask that "scrapbook" over there. I had grand plans to do one for every kid and their first few years of life, but as of right now, it's just a bunch of poorly at-home [...]
Back to My Roots.
You know that scene in Forrest Gump where he’s been running and running, and he’s wearing that ridiculous trucker hat with a beard, looking like some dude I’d probably date if I wasn’t married or afraid of hair in my teeth? […]

I am one of those people who walks around this Earth completely terrified of my own body. […]

Reinventing the Slumber Party
When I say girls weekend, it’s easy to immediately think of wine tours or a wild Vegas getaway. Just a bunch of women needing to blow off steam and escape their partners or kids for a few days. Umbrella drinks for everyone! […]
I’m Tired But…
Most days I walk around my house pretending to be Oprah. You know, pre-weird about bread Oprah. I’m building an empire! Give me carbs and a house in Hawaii! […]
WANTED: A Village
I feel like I’ve been shouted at for months now. Every time I turn on the news or read articles online, ALL CAPS SHOUTING. It’s scary and we’re sitting here trying to pinpoint the exact reason we are where we are, and what the hell we can do to fix it. I have only a [...]
