Here at work, flipping through the new IKEA catalog, and mentally squandering my next paycheck...that with the sunshine is making for a beautiful morning. On this Monday, I feel the need to simplify. Wanting to organize the organized life that I lead, and enjoy the simplicities that fill in the gaps between one crisis to the next.

This weekend was lovely. Well, as lovely as...

Last night was an "eye-opening" experience. One which would be lost in translation from emotion to terminology, but left last effects to which I'm still feeling today. A theory of ideas filtered into practical adaptations right into my life. A simple idea, with many complexities.

Be happy, friends...it's truly a state of mind. Life is far too short to live any other way. Trite, I...

Can I say, what a fuckin' great weekend! Yeah, I can... WHAT A FUCKIN' GREAT WEEKEND!

Happy Weekend!

Wow, my last journal entry left much to be desired...seems that even if things are bad, there's always a current of guilt that comes from spreading such sadness to others, especially you good people. So, in an effort to maintain positivity, I must say, I'm doing well, and let me tell you why.

1. Headed to Indy this weekend, for a date with...

I can once again feel myself being pulled too thin. You know, that feeling where everything in your life is pulling you in a different direction, emotionally and physically, to the point where everything in your life suffers. It's unacceptable to me to give less that 100 percent, it's part of who I am, so to see myself failing at achieving that level of accomplishment,...

What a GREAT weekend! I hope this finds you doing FABULOUS!! Or, FABULICIOUS even!

The weekend was extremely fulfilling on my part, and even at the height of emotional stress, underneath it all, lies happiness. It's amazing the perspective that family can bring to your life.

Saturday it was a whole lot of working. Mixed with a long over due chat with some...

Gram is coming to visit this weekend.
Can't wait to see her.
She's my strength and happiness.
She's what I aspire to be.
Meeting my Gram is like meeting me 40 years into the future.

I think I'm getting sick.

Everyday my heart explodes all over again.

I love my job, even when the weight of the world is heavy, my job is my sanctuary....

Ended up having a better weekend than I imagined possible giving all the current factors predominate in my life right now.

Some friends and I decided to become adults for an evening, or at least attempt to, and we got dressed up in high fashion to celebrate our general fabulousness. It was, in a word, lovely. Within the laughs and inside jokes of the evening,...

Sleep perchance to dream...

My dreams are quite clear. I want it all. The amazing husband who not only makes me laugh but wants to ravage me. The incredible kids who challenge my views and thoughts in turn for the secure unconditional loving environment that I will create for them. The innovative job that pushes me intellectually every day to think outside the box. The...

*giggle* Okay, kids, hate to ruin the illusion of yesterday's post, but I am much too shy to EVER post a picture like that of myself. It was just a photo that moved me and reminded me of a super-lovely memory. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

I have been quite bad about updated to you, but I promise, I'll get to you all soon soon soon...
