I have a pretty bad habit of leaving doors open/unlocked and forgetting about them. I’m not really sure why, or if this is even a problem for anyone but me. It probably has a little to do with my parents always taking care of it when I was growing up and me never really having... Continue Reading →
As many of you have heard, I just bought a house (still strange to say). And as many of you know, buying a house means moving. And, if you’re moving out of an apartment, you have to end your current lease in order to quit paying rent at one place to start paying rent (or... Continue Reading →
Since I am now a crazy dog lady in addition to being a crazy cat lady, one of my concerns since moving into the house has been W’s ability (or lack thereof) to walk/run somewhat normally on the wood floors. The Scooby-Do thing was cute at first, but now I can't help but wonder how... Continue Reading →
The title says it all! (Yay!) My new house is a two bed/two and a half bath townhome on the Raintree golf course. The course is in my backyard, which sounds great in theory, but until I get real curtains hung up, all those golfers can see all up in my space.You may also remember... Continue Reading →
Much has happened since my last blog post and, even though I am still not quite ready to announce it to the world just yet, I thought I’d write an update anyway. Sorry to be one of those annoying people who post vague statuses but it is what it is at this point. Those closest... Continue Reading →
One of my friends once told me, randomly and in passing, that she saw me as a successful person. I think we were talking about how people on the outside may view our lives and the word "successful" was thrown my way. And, honestly, it genuinely took me by surprise. I had spent years too...

Wednesday, we slept in. And by slept in I mean we were awake by 7:30am. When we got ready, we headed to Rocky Mountain State Park. A solid TWO HOURS from our campground. But of course, the drive there was beautiful, so it didn’t seem that bad.We arrived at the park around 11, I think,... Continue Reading →
Monday's activities included the zoo and the Denver nature and science museum. The zoo was wonderful, as usual, although not quite as large or as nice as the St. Louis zoo. But still a zoo. And I love them, so it was equally fun and exhausting. After that, I made my parents eat somewhere because I... Continue Reading →
Today's blog is going to be written less like a story and more of a play-by-play. It may take less effort. May take more. We'll see how it goes and how long it lasts. I'm getting tired. Captain's Log. Day 3. Hour 3. The wind that felt so good earlier has now kept me up until at... Continue Reading →
Well, the sun comes up awful early over here in the central time zone, and with it, the birds. So, I was up at the ass-crack of dawn packing up. Which was fine because I wanted to get to the zoo early. It opened at 8am and I was paying for that $15 parking spot... Continue Reading →
