Happy Five Months!

We’ve been together for five months today! [...]

tour de cure

On June 13th, my dad and I are doing the Cure de Tour- a 50 mile ride to raise money for the American Diabetes Association. Below is the text from my fundraising site. But instead of reading it here, you can just go to the site and help me reach my goal of raising $250 for diabetes [...]

in the month of may

I know this is not the Las Vegas post I promised awhile ago. But last night, I was lucky enough to catch The Writer’s Almanac segement on NPR. This poem by Robert Bly was read and I really liked it, so I wanted to post it here. You can actually hear the poem read by [...]

So I think we left off with visiting the parents in Chicago. We’ve been to Chicago twice since then!

1. I am dating the most amazing man ever. We are so right for each other that I can’t even believe it. We have [...]

the talented ms shelia

Shelia is the mother of one of my good friends from college, Lacey. We took several trips to Lacey’s home in VA while we were in college and I became fond of her wonderfully fun mother, Shelia. Shelia was a crafts major in college so it’s no wonder that she’s talented. But I was soo [...]

I do not shower every day. And I am not ashamed to tell you that. I have always said that showering every day is not healthy for most people’s skin and hair. I usually work out on Mon-Wed-Fri mornings and shower at the YMCA before I go to work. And I typically take a bonus shower [...]

Happy St Patrick’s Day! (and my weekend in Chicago)

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Last weekend while Johnny and I were in Chicago, we caught some of the St. Pat’s parade.
We spent the weekend in Chicago soaking in the city and some time with the fam. Last stop in the “Tour de Parents.” Johnny’s parents live in Olympia Fields (a south suburb).  PS- If you live [...]
