Stream of Consciousness Sunday: The Internet is my constant

May 13, 2012

I waffled about writing a post for today. I just moved (yes, it FINALLY happened). I’m sick. And I have no internet. But I decided I wanted get out and see the community and see if there really was a Starbucks with internet close by. And I was in luck! Today’s Writing Prompt: How has [...]

Redefining “Together”

May 8, 2012

My family has been unintentionally fractured over the past year and it has caused us to redefine what “together” really means for us. It actually started about 18 months ago when my husband decided it was time to start looking for a new job. He was ready to step out of his leadership role at [...]

She’s Not So Scary After All

May 7, 2012

I really wonder if people in Jill Smokler’s inner circle call her Jill or if they call her Scary Mommy. It’s got to be the catchiest blog name ever that emerged at a time when “mommy blogs” {cringe} were all the rage. (Wait – are they still all the rage? Let me know because I [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: The Story of a Man

May 6, 2012

So many things on my mind tonight. When I sit down to write my post for next Sunday, I will officially be living in Maryland. I still don’t see how it’s all going to get done especially with me fielding some sort of upper respiratory ailment and lower back pain. But it will get done [...]

An iPhone Girl Reviews the Samsung Infuse 4G

May 4, 2012

What’s a nice iPhone girl like me doing reviewing an Android phone? I’m stretching myself. I thought it might be a good idea to branch out and test the waters with some other phones. If you’re an iPhone user, you know you still have those days where you want to throw that brick at a [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: Rearranging My Life

April 29, 2012

The house has officially sold. It’s a done deal. We closed on Friday and officially turned the deed over to someone else. But we haven’t moved yet. We’re renting our own house for the next 2 weeks. It feels a little weird because it doesn’t feel like someone else’s house. But at least the first [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: Stop the Merry Go Round!

April 22, 2012

I usually write my post on Saturday night – usually late at night – and publish it shortly before I nod off to sleep. These days, I schedule it to post at 12:01am eastern time. Technically, it’s still Saturday for my West Coast friends but it’s already halfway through Sunday for my South Pacific friends [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: Baking bread for The Hunger Games

April 15, 2012

Today is a weird topic for me. I mean, it’s not weird for ME but it might be for you. Again, it’s a good time to remind you that the writing prompts are OPTIONAL. I added them because some people wanted to participate but ended up spending 5 minutes writing about what they should be [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: Hello, Anxiety. I’ve been expecting you.

April 8, 2012

I started this meme as a way to get your writing juices flowing. I used to do this exercise in college and we would freewrite for 15 minutes. But back then, we did it with pen and paper and the amount we could write in 15 minutes is about the same as I can type [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: I don’t wanna…

April 1, 2012

Call it whining. Call it ranting. Call it first world problems. I have perspective but sometimes there are things you just don’t want to do. Maybe you’re tired or you need a break or you’d rather spend your hard-earned money elsewhere. But there’s got to be something you don’t want to do. I’m full of [...]
