I recently wrote an update to some friends, and I realized I hadn't written here in a while. Again. I'd like to say I'm surprised, but I'm really not. Life took it upon itself to really kick the crap out of me this year so far, and to say I'm doing well would be an… Continue reading Heartbreak

Liminal
I've been here a few times. I've started posts, and somehow abandoned them, overwhelmed or maybe even just uninterested. I admit, I didn't read any. I simply withdrew. Things got bad, but of course I cannot elaborate except to say if you are a parent, what is the worst thing you can imagine for your… Continue reading Liminal
House Crazy-Land

I'm going to post photos, but the truth is that you just cannot comprehend how poorly this kitchen was laid… Continue reading House Crazy-Land

Not all negative or anything, but… Continue reading Yep, Still Alive

I was even at my computer last night, messing around during some rare free-time, and… Continue reading Early Onset… something
Renovation Overwhelm
There is a lie that we often tell ourselves that if we had the means to buy this or that, things would be better. It's the same lie every single person tells themselves when they buy a lottery ticket. I'm not saying I have anything against buying a lottery ticket, mind you, because I love… Continue reading Renovation Overwhelm
Chocolate, Art and Life (Who Am I?)
Traditionally when you start up a blog, introductions are in order. Back in the day, I was a 20-something, then a 30-something blogger, and now I'm 44. I'm over the "something" part, I'm 44. I feel like "something" added some sort of hidden dread of getting older. As if that would somehow stave it all… Continue reading Chocolate, Art and Life (Who Am I?)
