Coming home.

June 29, 2011

Montana, will you have me? And why is this state so sparsely populated when it is quite possibly one of the most beautiful places on Earth?

Big Sky

June 22, 2011

Benjamin and I are in Montana visiting my brother, Ezra, or, Uncle Ezzie. I wanted to write an awesome blog post and upload some of my pictures – but my blog won’t let me upload anything for some reason. Until then – and over the next few days – check out my Facebook page photo [...]

The end (again)

June 15, 2011

Trust must come before love and love can’t survive without trust. I felt absolutely certain I could love him again. I tried to forget. I felt that I could conquer the past. But I couldn’t. And something was missing. The trust? The original love we had? I wasn’t sure, but being so unsure, standing on [...]

Entries and Exits

June 2, 2011

The appointment was at 3:30 but she didn’t show up until 3:45. I had changed into sweat pants and flip flops, to make sure I was comfortable and prepared for whatever she was going to do to me. I expected her to be frumpy and tried to imagine what it would be like to travel [...]

May 19, 2011

Had a conversation with Benjamin today that had my head spinning about the birds and the bees and all of that jazz for hours. It went something like this. “Stacey was mad at me today.” “Why, Honey?” “Because I told her I wasn’t going to marry her anymore and that I was going to marry [...]

Happy Friday

May 6, 2011

The sun is out today. If you live in the Midwest, you know why this is so substantial. The sun has been hiding for weeks and in its place we have had and endless barrage of clouds and rain. Gloomy doesn’t even begin to describe it. And while yes, it could be much worse and [...]

Different Shoes

May 5, 2011

This morning I forced Benjamin to watch Mr. Rogers. He had a rough day at school yesterday and Mr. Rogers seems to help. Mind control, brain washing, whatever you call it – it works. Especially when there’s a need to counter a weekend filled with Transformers and Star Wars Clone Wars – guilty. (we slipped [...]

John Bear on Idol

April 17, 2011

I started watching American Idol again during our break. I know, I know. But I have to say, I love the judges. And clearly I need to kill my TV again. But in the meantime, John Bear is back and I can’t stop watching this season. After months of watching in solice, suddenly there was [...]

Silence is golden.

March 28, 2011

My absence in writing here has been somewhat intentional. I can’t say it is 100% intentional because I didn’t consciously say, “I’m not going to write for a while.” It just happened and then something started happening and I am now opting to keep a lid on it. Why? Because I have discovered that I [...]
