I dig the weekly photo or writing contests, but I really love this new Music in Photos contest since it incorporates music! Here’s my entry for Lenny Kravitz’s “Fly Away” I wish that I could fly Into the sky So very high Just like a dragonfly I’d fly above the trees Over the seas in…
Every few years, people inspired by fantastic feats of athleticism, underestimated underdogs, and sensational skill dream their own Olympic dream! These dreams send herds of people signing up for gymnastics and cannonballing into the pool! For me, I’m convinced that I’m Michael Phelps’ twin, Michelle, and had I not moved from Baltimore as a child,…
My reputation precedes me. Around these parts I’m known as the Most Caffeinated Gal in the West. Triple lattes in the morning then a Grande booster around 3pm would get me through the day. Although I’ve lowered my octane, settling for drip coffee, my simple goal remains… to stay awake longer than my kids! So…
In the morning, with the light streaming through the window, the walls disappear and the kitties joyfully sun themselves. (I know, I know, I’m a week late) #CatPhotoFriday
I’ve got two kids who are skilled communicators. One blows me away while regurgitating facts, details and dates, spitting them out in a way that captivates me like no professor could. The other one sharply launches zingers that envelop me in an explosion of laughter. If they worked together, embracing their differences, they could go…
I’ve wandered for 144 days now, and am still amused – regularly coming across refreshing new blogs. I wanted to share my observations as to everything that I’ve discovered blogging is to me.

I’m half-Korean. People don’t quite know where to place me. My skin is too dark to be white (You can’t spell Caucasian without Asian…), my green-ish eyes aren’t Asian, my Hungarian cooking scrambles their brains. Honestly, not being brought up Asian, and turned off by some stereotypes for Asian women, I identified with American Indians,…
[NOTE: To really understand this story, you have to start at the beginning…] When one fish dies, one can say many things… Paul was the smaller, naturally weaker fish – he didn’t have as much of a chance He’d been through a lot already in his short life surviving the fair and the floor At…
After returning to earth and disembarking Knott’s highest ride, the stink of fish permeated my thoughts. I was in over my head with 2 new goldfish. Ending this first day of Lauren’s 8th birthday celebration, my kids were exhausted! Usually I’d encourage sleeping on the way home. This time I kept conversation flowing, sang songs,…
People say this is how it happens, but I never thought it would happen to me. My life changed in the blink of an unblinking eye! I went from being a loving mom to a suspect in a crime. More special than other days, last Friday held big meaning as I’d be reuniting with my…
Knott’s Berry Farm, on my daughter’s birthday, presents a whole new magical experience at night! They project lights across the floor and the kids decided the goal was to make it through Camp Snoopy without stepping on any lights on the ground.
