The Aurora List - Stuff To Buy

Categorized Under: Aurora, pregnancy 4 Commented

A list of stuff I need to buy within in the next 10 weeks. Or, maybe I should make that 6-8 weeks because DOOD. WHAT IF SHE’S EARLY?

Okay, so I did it.  I took the leap.  I’m going to blogHer.  It’s officially official.  See?

Now, who else is going? (I want to know!)

In other, but equally exciting news:
BABY, BACK OFF.  STOP HORSING AROUND, YOU HAVE TO WAIT AT LEAST 8 MORE WEEKS.  IT’S THE RULES.

I swear I’ll get back to posting on my own blog really soon.  I’m just waiting for a certain mysterious man to get home to take my picture because I’m feeling like my blog is lacking in the visual department.
For now, though…check out my latest writing, here.

Focusing On The Rainbows

Categorized Under: Me me me., The way I roll 2 Commented

The storms still brew around me, threatening to turn my life upside-down in one fell swoop - changing my life the way I know it.  I can see the clouds outside my window as they circle around, and yet I try to focus on the beauty still in my life - it matters not that [...]
