I wonder what it’s like to think about nothing? I need to buy a portable building to turn into a photography studio. I need to clean out my garage, close it in, insulate, sheet rock, lay a floor, call an electrician, and turn my garage into a studio. I want to go to the Sea … Continue reading All the Gossip

A show of hands for all of you who enjoy circuses! Not the normal day-to-day circus of being a mom, or a student, or a wife juggling laundry and homework and life, but actual circuses.

Awhile back my three year old came into my bedroom bawling! Full blown devastation. Huge tears and agony! I finally got her calmed down enough to tell me what was causing this horrendous breakdown. Her response…”Sutton forgot to take her blankie!!!” (Insert more wailing). Her friend had spent the evening playing at our house. Apparently, … Continue reading Walk in the Light
Time and time again as a teenager, I put on an overly sexy pair of glasses (as shown in the picture below) and attempted to dribble a basketball down a court.
