You may be wondering where I’ve been all week. Or if you’re like me, you’re completely unaware a whole week has passed. Tuesday, I drove to Columbia to give a talk to the Greater Columbia Area Mothers of Twins. The next thing I knew, it was Friday morning.
That’s when I remembered I was supposed to [...]

pardon me while I rearrange the furniture
I’m in heaven right now. I spent the weekend all by myself. Alone. Just me.
Did I mention I had the weekend to myself? I retreated to a hotel in my beautiful historic city and spent two glorious days locked inside my room. No TV. No noise. My husband gets credit for arranging this get-away. I [...]

superwoman has left the building
I became my own boss so I could be in charge of my work-life balance, and this week I realized it was time to brush up on my management skills.
Have you ever had those days when everything is clicking and moving and grooving—you’re on fire with productivity? I have those days, too. When I’m drunk [...]

four years ago today…
… I was lying in a hospital bed, playing cards with my best friend, taking bets on the size and weight of my baby boy. At 11:46 pm, Dillon arrived weighing in at 6 pounds, 10 ounces and 20 inches long. I can’t remember who won the bet.
I can remember how magical it felt to [...]

the generation of choice
I had a wonderful telephone conversation with my grandmother recently. The surface of small-talk was broken, and suddenly we were chatting candidly about how different it is today.

how do you define success?
At 35, I think I’ve finally earned the right to call myself a “grown-up.” At least it’s taken me this long to feel like one. And there are days I still have my doubts.
I spent my 20’s trying to figure out what success really meant to me… how it looked, how it felt, what I [...]

stuff
I’m writing this from the road. Four adults and three children stuffed into an Excursion– an over-sized vehicle that feels a bit too small for us. We are traveling to New York for Uncle Frank’s 70th birthday. It’s supposed to be a surprise, but I’m pretty sure Frank’s not reading my blog. My sister-in-law and [...]

ups & downs of twitterbooking
That’s what my husband calls it when I’m on the computer, chatting up my social network.
In my quest for balance, I’m seeking a happy medium in my love/hate relationship with the Internet. There are plenty of advantages, but it also has an addictive quality. I have wondered if they make a patch to help cure [...]

no regrets
People want to know if we’re done having kids. This week, I answer that question (indirectly) over at Hybrid Mom. I’ll let you in on something… the essay isn’t really about whether there’s a minivan in my future. It’s about having no regrets. It’s about having things in our lives that are “worth it” no [...]
