Middle Ages
An interesting day, Morning spent alone with my thoughts and writing for company Feeling as though I had all the time In the world Then realizing it was already noon The Starbucks barista Excited at my name- My grandma has the same one! Ummmm, what? Excuse me? The moment where, For the first time, I…

Rain dance
Halfway through another week, But my brain won’t stop racing. Full of my list and my have to’s While I dream of everything I’d rather be doing. They say life is what happens while you’re making other plans But I’ve been trying harder to live each day to the fullest To hold my children tight…

Thursday dreaming
Another episode of Thursday thoughts, on the heels of what may or may not be a cold. It’s one of those tickley bothers, the kind where you think any minute you’re about to get deathly ill with some virus, and may never recover, except it never really arrives- at least, not so far. I’m three…

Half day Monday
I love half day mondays! This summer I decided that instead of taking a bunch of time off I was going to try to shorten my work week, Weather and responsibilities permitting. This is the first week where I’ve felt what that means, And so far, I’m digging it. This week, I worked only Monday…

Frīġedæġ
Friday. I’ve started writing a story about a girl named Freyja, which feels perfectly appropriate for today. I love history. I love learning about other people’s history.

Thunderstorms
Friday rolled around again, raining down on the land with the fresh smell of dirt. I love the way A good thunderstorm rolls over all my senses Lightning so stark yet vibrant, Fire from the heavens Thunder as it rumbles, Playing drums in my heart The smell of life, Rich and peaty I can almost…

Late night with my thoughts
Night falls late in my home, My body droops and I sigh So much running through my head As another day goes by I wonder if I forgot To cross my i’s and dot my t’s And wonder if I remembered To give enough thanks and please Another month is ending, Another week almost through…

Aftermath
Another launch day almost gone and I’m still as pumped as the first one. It was a whirlwind day with kids, work, sick kid/husband and posting for a Facebook party but somehow, I skidded through it all with a great mood. I did my first ever Facebook live which was truly hilarious. I couldn’t believe…
