Stream of Consciousness Sunday! {Missing}

My soon-to-be-ex-husband has been missing since Thursday. I don’t know how I should feel about it, but I know how I do feel about it: Angry. Annoyed. Worried. Frustrated. Scared. (but only for selfish reasons, and only a little bit) More than likely, he’s secluded himself from the world to explore a new high, to…

BIRTHDAY Wrap-Up {…and a Very Special Giveaway!}

When I decided to sit down and write out my 101 list, I knew that volunteering and/or helping others would somehow make it onto the list, because even when you have nothing, you still have something to give, which brings us to today’s giveaway. The idea comes from the wonderfully talented and generous, Shana, at…

It’s Finally BIRTHDAY!!!

There have been so many times in the past ten years that I sincerely thought I was being punished, just for the pure fact that I was in my twenties. Honestly, who loses their roommate, ends up with a $7,000 car repair problem, and then has an emergency appendectomy all in a month’s time? Well,…

Starting BIRTHDAY Week Right!

Good Monday Morning! I totally feel like THAT! ^ Now that BIRTHDAY week has officially arrived, let’s get the party started, shall we!? WE SHALL. I am so proud, elated, and excited to announce my very first sponsor, my friend, Shelli of Minnesota Meets California! Shelli and I have known each other for a few…

Stream of Consciousness Sunday! {BIRTHDAY!}

In case you’re new, or hide under large rocks, it’s BIRTHDAY month around these blog parts, and I am beside myself with excitement. I’ve wanted to be in my 30s for about two years now, and now that Wednesday (aka BIRTHDAY!!) is quickly approaching, my excitement level is rising. My 20s have been some pretty…

BIG news!

You know, going through a divorce is no pedicure, but as far as months go, this one is not sucking. I crossed off 90% of my list for February, and while my list for March hasn’t even been written down yet, by next week, a whole host of things will be done! (Ahem… that was…

Bloggers’ Biggest Loser!

Link up with the fabulous Vicki from My Vickilicious Life, and Amy from At The Pink of Perfection. Let’s talk about eating our feelings, because that’s what I did all week. Sure, I lost one whole pound of something or another, but none of my efforts are responsible for that loss. I didn’t eat crap all week,…

Bloggers’ Biggest Loser! {Plateaus!}

Link up with the fabulous Vicki from My Vickilicious Life, and Amy from At The Pink of Perfection. I went to visit my in-laws this weekend and when I sat down to write on Saturday, I got about halfway through my “Free Your Mind” post and the girls woke up from their naps. I went to finish…

Random Musings Friday!

Happy Friday!! I’m linking up again with Shana at Fumbling Towards Normalcy! It’s been a decent week! Probably the best I’ve had in a while. I met up with an old friend on Saturday, my mother in law hung out with us on Sunday, and the rest of the week has sort of flown by….

Going Back to Work! {The Bright Side}

I was playing with the girls this morning with my mom and it occurred to me (as Lily screamed over a stolen toy and Molly head butted the floor) that there are some obvious benefits to going back to work, even if it is three years before originally planned, and a few things I will…
