A couple of weeks ago, I had the rare opportunity for an unexpected and uninterrupted hour of alone time. Wow, I thought to myself. I can spend some time writing. Writing time on weeknights doesn’t usually happen for me. When I get home from work, it’s time to get my workout in, and then jumpContinue reading “{Writing Wednesday: From the Melancholy Place}”

{Writing Wednesday: Write Your Enneagram}
I recently started following author Ashley Abramson on Instagram, and she offers weekly writing prompts for her followers. In an effort to stretch myself with regard to my own writing, I’ve given a couple of them a try. Recently, she did a couple of prompts about writing your enneagram. If you don’t know what theContinue reading “{Writing Wednesday: Write Your Enneagram}”
{Now and Not Yet}
Hello again, friends! It’s been a little quiet around here lately, and I’m sorry for that. Life in the real world has gotten very busy lately! I wonder if you also notice the seasons and cycles of life being busy and then having seasons of rest. Our Spring has been filled with track meets andContinue reading “{Now and Not Yet}”
{The Sound of Sisterhood}
One evening, I was sitting on my couch doing what moms do at the end of a long day… relaxing (i.e. browsing Netflix). Suddenly laughter and silliness and Disney sing-a longs broke into my consciousness and took root in my heart. My two teenage girls just enjoying being together, being sisters, sharing the small momentsContinue reading “{The Sound of Sisterhood}”
{Bravery and beta readers}
Trying to get brave over here. Last summer I finished writing my first book, a cute little story about a boy named Hank and his summer adventures with his friend, Jake, all while visiting his Great-Aunt Leova and Great-Uncle Henry. Since finishing, I’ve let a couple of people read it, and have spent a goodContinue reading “{Bravery and beta readers}”

This post was originally published on October 30, 2016 on my family blog, as a follow up to this post. I wanted to share the follow up with you as well as the original. I notice that something still happens in my heart when I take chances on my dreams. That dream you have? TakeContinue reading “{When something happens…}”
{Around the Kitchen Table}
This post was originally published on my family blog on Monday, October 17, 2016. I loved it, though, and wanted to share it over here on this space, to share some of my writing, as well as a little part of me and things that are important to me. I hope you enjoy it!

41.
My birthday was earlier this month (January), which always makes me reflect on the year that has passed. Since it’s the last day of the month, I thought I’d share some of my reflections on 40. 40 was a great year! It taught me a lot about myself, some stuff that was hard, and aContinue reading “41.”
{Just Me}
Welcome! Hey there, friends. Welcome to this new space. I’m sitting at my kitchen table right now, drinking my coffee and looking out my french doors at the beautiful mixture of grey clouds, blue sky, and winter trees. Winter trees are not my favorite. They are bleak, empty, and in many ways, devoid of life. Continue reading “{Just Me}”
