day after hump day nuggets: holiday

December 31, 2009
hump day nuggets: little bits of the season in photos and words about the last week We had an absolutely fabulous holiday. At the risk of sounding like a crazy, over-thinking mom, I have been on the fence about perpetuating the lie of santa. Not because I think it is silly or because I don’t like the mucking up of the christian day but because I was devastated when I learned the truth.

like riding a bike only jigglier

December 28, 2009
I ran on Saturday. The first time since March. And it felt fantastic. It’s weird how scary it is to do something you’ve never done before. Even when you know you can do it because others have done it and just deep down you know you can do it. Like childbirth.

here comes the sun

December 13, 2009
My mom always sings Here Comes the Sun when she has a good day skiing. It never gets old and is always the perfect harmony for her when great turns under a blue sky make her giddy. You know that giddiness that pumps adrenaline into every cell of your person making you feel light as air and aware of every beautiful thing in this world. I feel that right now. And you know, I know it could all change because, … Continue reading here comes the sun →
