It’s nights like last night that can really lift a girl up! Here’s the back story… As most of you know, we’ve been in the midst of a move at home and I’m feeling like my life is in total chaos. What you might not know, is that I like order…like…a lot of order…and I…
I’ve been in a bit of a funk lately. I’m not sure if it’s the ungodly hot weather, my post-op support hose (they’re really sexy!), the post-op couch potato lifestyle…or…I could go on. I’m totally understanding why this time of year has been coined the dog days of summer. ‘Cause boy are my doggies tired…
This morning I had the “privilege” of upholding one of my civic duties as an American citizen: Jury Duty. Horrah! Can you sense the sarcasm?

If you’ve noticed during my last few posts that my photography seems a bit rudimentary, it’s because for the last several weeks I have been without my baby. My Nikon D3100 that is. Yup…there are models out there that far surpass the ability of my humble little DSLR. But I love her and I had…
And the hits just keep on comin’! It is the first day of March, and we are currently under assault. The snow and cold just won’t seem to stop this winter. We’ve already seen 2-3 inches of snow in the last 12 hours and by the end of tonight the forecasters are expecting an additional…
Well – here we are! My first blog post. I have never ever, ever written a blog…like, EVER. Pretty hard to believe coming from someone who used to be in public relations and marketing.
