Life is Messy

The other day I forgot my wordpress password and did the whole forgotten password dance we all do. Lets face it, I do that dance very single time I log in anywhere ever and the only reason I let any website stay open on my iPad or computer is so I won’t have to remember…

Someone needs to teach me how to after Christmas.  I get in a mood to take down my tree the day after. It takes me a couple hours of packing each ornament into a box labeled with each kids name. We have found this is the easiest way to do this and although it’s time…

Hope for Healing

Here is what’s important to know -my husband knows all that I’m about to say. He’s well aware and a ok with it. Now with that out of the way I’ll continue.  Love is strange. In my life I can say I’ve been in love twice and both items were very different. I’ve had lots…

Chaos in the bathtub.

Potty training trouble,
Bacteria everywhere, a mom losing her ever loving mind, must be throwback Thursday.

It’s my Act-Scent

  Once upon a time…. Once while on vacation on a southern barrier island we found ourselves in that comfortable lull of conversation with another vacationing family.
