sharing a little bit of sugar...

Despite stress and worries, the second half of today turned out splendidly. I have poured so much of my sadness/fear into my last few posts of this blogspot that I thought a happier, more grateful toned post, was in order... So, without further ado, here are a few of the highlights: - we had to... Sign in to see full entry.

a little sadness plus a cup full of inspiration...

tossing and turning led to a rough nights sleep and little to no clarity about what to do. You all left some really great advice in the comments and I am grateful! It's difficult to talk about a lot of this when we are here in the same hotel room as our daughter. I awoke to voice mails regarding our... Sign in to see full entry.

late night worries...

TAPS wrote such a great post tonight... I commented her about how I feel as though my fists are bloody from pounding on closed doors, and I am losing air trapped in this hallway... Our trip has been lovely. Well, as lovely as it can be considering the home situation. Considering my husbands insane... Sign in to see full entry.

In Leiu of Good Bye...

I drempt of you, last night. I saw you there, alone. You slept in peace, your skin felt warm and I realized I've missed you so much... My daughter played at the foot of your bed, and I stood beside, your sleeping fingers entwined in mine... The most consuming emotion I felt was this sense of relief... Sign in to see full entry.

Chicago state of mind...

I am logged on to the slowest high-speed internet imaginable, from an undisclosed hotel just outside of Chicago. Everything else about the hotel, (including it's next door mini-golf/lazer tag/go-cart wonderland) is absolutely amazing so I refuse to complain. In truth, what's really bothering me is...

I've fallen in love...

In this small midwestern town, just north-west of Chicago, I've found myself surprisingly at home. As I toured around with my eye held high behind my camera lens, I found myself falling in love with a building. An old theater with lovely, poetic lofts vacant above it. As my husband stood near by,... Sign in to see full entry.

hope with me...

we are headed to Chicago in the morning. I am hoping this trip brings up a miracle... (not that the miracle can come directly from Chicago, but I think you know what I mean!!!) Sign in to see full entry.

Epiphanies of road trips...

We drove down to Indiana for my nephew's third birthday party today. He is my nephew by heart association alone. His mommy's parents were my foster parents. We were very close, her father is the only father I've ever really had and her mother was very much the mother of my heart. She passed away... Sign in to see full entry.

my supersticious nature...

Is intimidating the me who wants to NOT buy into it... Happy Friday the 13th, ya'll. Over the course of the days I was writing my story for you, we had some crazy things happen around here. It's been our dream/goal/hope/plan for a long time, to move home. Home is NOT the midwest, but more on the... Sign in to see full entry.

My true soulmate is...

Sometimes the morning feels like a smooth jazz tune, striking me to move a little quicker- to add a little zest in my step. That was not this morning. I thought about yesterdays "lesson". The one I intended to write about, yet the comments from some of you made that lesson sink in a bit deeper. The... Sign in to see full entry.
