Blogmas: The 10 Best Things I Read in 2012

January 7, 2013

The cool thing about hosting Blogmas (which is a wee bit overdue) is that I get to make all the decisions. Including how many awards to give out and to whom and when. But many of you know, I am NOT the queen of consistency. I’m late this year but it’s not for lack of [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: It’s my brain and I’ll do what I like

December 16, 2012

Poor Jana over at Jana’s Thinking Place is so sick that she could barely take time to write a prompt for today’s Stream of Consciousness Sunday. It’s okay, though, because I had my own thoughts brewing that I simply needed to get out. Here’s 5 minutes, unedited, from my brain this morning. *** I hate writing [...]

Blogmas 2012: Break Out Your Fancy Dresses

December 3, 2012

Last year, I had this brilliant idea. I had this idea to make my life and blogging so much easier of the holidays. I would create my very own blogging awards!!! It was brilliant because I would get peer nominations for some of the best posts from 2011 and I would post little excerpts and [...]

Life, the Universe and Everything

November 30, 2012

One of my very favorite things that I wrote was exactly two years ago today, on my birthday. It was a BIG birthday for me and yet I had no thoughts, feelings, emotions, anticipation, or anxiety about said birthday. I just let it come. And it came in such a delightful way. I spent the [...]

Paying It Forward Across the Country

October 1, 2012

I love how traveling always brings adventure. Even a trip to the grocery store can be an adventure. But bigger adventures usually come with bigger trips. Take last weekend, for example. I was headed out on a train from Baltimore to New York. I ran into so many friendly people. And these were just your [...]

The Highly Enlightened Taxi Driver

September 26, 2012

You never come back from New York City without stories. Am I right or am I right? I fully expected stories from the Social Good Summit to enlighten me, enrich my life, give me new perspective. But I didn’t expect those stories to start with my taxi ride from Penn Station to the hotel. I [...]

Happy Blogoversary to Me!

September 9, 2012

I never really pay much attention to dates but this year, I was thinking about when I started this blog. I knew the anniversary of the date I started was right around now, so on a whim last night, I checked the date of my very first post ever. September 9, 2009 Well, I couldn’t [...]

I Heart Faces Photo Challenge: Summer Fun

September 5, 2012

I’m not a photographer. I don’t even play one on TV. But I do like to take my iPhone with me everywhere I go. And every once in a while, I capture the moment. It can be a moment in nature, a moment of parenting, a moment of puppyhood, a moment of life. But I [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: I just keep missing the boat

August 19, 2012

In case you haven’t heard, Stream of Consciousness Sunday no longer belongs to me. I turned the reins over to my friend Jana at Jana’s Thinking Place. But I’m still happy to stop over when I can and participate in a much needed brain dump. Jana’s prompt this week? Dreams. — One think I’m really [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: Rowing out to meet the ship

July 29, 2012

Guess who’s back for 5 minutes on a Sunday? But I’m no longer the host. I’m just a happy participant with Jana from Jana’s Thinking Place. And today’s writing prompt? Anticipation.   A few weeks ago, someone on Facebook asked if there was a theme song for your life. Or it was something along those [...]
