Now THAT's a workout
Swaddled under two blankets, a duvet, sheets, sweatshirt, t-shirt, yoga pants, those thick, fluffy, winter socks, and a nice warm puppy on the bed, I am writing to you from the depths of the cold, which can now be described as our house. Maybe that's a slight exaggeration, but the heater in our house stopped working yesterday. I didn't really ( Read more... ) -

Catching up
Seems like all I'm ever doing on this blog is catching up with what's going on in my life because I don't ever blog anymore!
I've been in a funk.
Here's what I've been up to since I last blogged 2 months ago:- Attended Dallas Cowboys Open House for season ticket holders. That screen is ginormous and bee-yoo-tiful!

Getting to know my team
At work, my cube move took place two weeks ago at the start of my transition from the old team to the new one. These other 5 to 6 people on my new team have been working together since April, so I figured my joining the group would be interrupting whatever team dynamic that they had created. I didn't realize that from April to July, they've all ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
The wall I had around my heart came crumbling down Sunday night faster than I could build it back up. Two weeks after the second miscarriage I finally cried. It was such a raw display of emotion for me.... so unexpected... Ronnie just held me as I cried.
I had built up this wall with an automatic response of, "I'm fine." I didn't cry with the ( Read more... ) -
How old were you?
I'm in Alexandria, Virginia for two weeks for work. I have the pleasure of sharing the hotel with a charter bus load of what I am assuming are 8th graders enjoying their class trip to D.C. Standing in the lobby waiting for the second cycle of elevators, I overhear a conversation between two 8th grade boys.
One says to the other, "You actually ( Read more... ) -
It only took four years!
At the beginning of every marriage (or now-a-days cohabitation), every couple has to sit down and make some difficult decisions... in the form of chores. How do you divy up the housework and maintain order in something that's so new to both of you? Here's how our conversation went:
Me: I hate to empty the dishwasher. I don't want to do it.
Hubby: I ( Read more... ) -
What Dreams May Come
I have a friend that keeps checking in on me and wondering why I haven't blogged lately. I finally took on the challenge today to get over my blogging hump and finally put something down on "paper." You see, I blog all the time in my head. I think I've already told you that once before. I actually was blogging privately for a while until a ( Read more... ) -
Project 365
I've started another Project365. I did one for the summer and called it Project90. This time I'll be doing a picture-a-day for the entire year! Check it out here. You should be able to RSS to it. This time around, it'll be even funner with my new camera I received for graduation/Christmas. My sister is joining me (actually, she's on year 3 of ( Read more... ) -
