Self-Awareness
My life in process
March 7, 2010
You'll be starting to notice a few changes around here. Gone is the old FIMBY and in it's place is what you see. (Of course if you're stumbling upon this post sometime in the future, say spring 2011, you're probably looking at something altogether different yet again). This was not ...
the almost spring snow report
March 2, 2010
This has been "the winter that wasn't". Our heating bill has been down but in every other respect the lack of snow and cold has been a disappointment. We only had one real back country sledding adventure and as for local hills I only took the kids once. Pathetic. But ...
New Year Insecurities

preparing for a perfectly wonderful un-perfect Christmas
December 1, 2009

Season of Light
November 28, 2009
Today is blustery as all get out, no snow unfortunately. A good day though to cook and bake, which is exactly what I'm doing. Yesterday we spent the day creating, together as a family, gifts for grandparents, aunties and uncles. With Thanksgiving come and gone it seems Christmastime is truly ...
