We moved yesterday.  Again.  This time it was only a hundred yards or so, in order to gain another couple of hundred square feet.  And another bedroom.  And more space.  It was crazy, but definitely worth it.  And we did the majority of the move in a matter of 4-5 hours.  My children are truly [...]

Where have I been in the past almost-a-year? All over the place emotionally/mentally and around the world, physically. I just returned from a trip to the amazing country of China! I have around 6,000 photos to go through from the trip. School is going well, my new job as a photography editor is going well, [...]

Wow – I picked up my ID card today at the University. I should be so excited. A big part of me WANTS to be so excited. Why can’t I be excited? Meanwhile, the daily-multi-sobs have subsided, but it’s still pretty sad inside of here. I guess that’s to be expected?! There are no observed [...]

Isn’t that a simple enough thing? Well, I plan to make that my goal for the upcoming new year. I have so many things I want to do – NEED to do.  I have some goals and dreams. Things I want to teach my children, places I want to take my children, and experiences I [...]

I am a mess. I held it somewhat together through the holidays. But now I am falling apart. I feel so alone at a time when I should feel surrounded. I am so blessed and have so much to be thankful for – so I don’t mean to sound ungrateful, because I am not. It [...]

And I am ever so tired of all of the tears. I have so much to be thankful for, really I do. And here we are heading into a beautiful holiday – and I am so unprepared, so not even headed in the vague direction of being ready. I’m just so overwhelmed.
