A Tale of Two Sisters in Overalls, Part III
August 10, 2010"Continued from A Tale of Two Sisters in Overalls, Part II. . . I got a flat north of Nashville. So, when my tire blew out, and my sister was right in front of me, she didn’t happen to see me swerve across three lanes of traffic and into the emergency lane. She just looked [...]"
A Tale of Two Sisters in Overalls, Part II
August 09, 2010"Continued from A Tale of Two Sisters in Overalls, Part I . . . Have you ever been to East St. Louis? I hadn’t either. First of all, it’s not in St. Louis, which is in Missouri. (I smart.) It’s in Illinois. I am so serious. (You know you didn’t know that either.) Secondly, all you [...]"
A Tale of Two Sisters in Overalls
August 08, 2010"It was the summer of 1998. I can still remember it like it was yesterday, even though it was pre-Todd, pre-Rollie and Tiller, Pre-Quint and Simon, and Scully.

The Gulf
July 06, 2010"I watched my children play in the sand while a storm came in, never quite reached us, but left us a rainbow that spanned the trees and the beach and gulf, all the way to the horizon. I listened as my children discussed whether the pot of gold was in the forest or in the [...]"

Life Gets in the Way, But Let Me Fast Forward It For You
March 22, 2010"This has been my worst month of posting in years. Life has really gotten in the way. Many reasons come into play. Me training for another triathlon. Work.

Honey and the Busy Bee
March 11, 2010"My excitement holds no bounds today. My friend Honey, my college roommate, is coming in town and staying with me for four days. FOUR DAYS. Sure, there will be kids and husbands and dogs underfoot, but I am so excited to spend some quality time with one of my dearest friends. Ever have a person [...]"
Sometimes I Miss The Baby Days
February 02, 2010" No, I didn’t take this. It was probably my mom or dad. And no, it’s not me. It’s my sister, Lisa. Really reminds me a lot of my nephew Dash, though, so thought i would post it for her. Also, see that jacket? I am such a packrat that I kept it and Rollie and [...]"
My Favorite Girls
January 21, 2010"My daughter and my sister. Happened to snap shots of both of them recently that I really liked. Normally, i would include my Mom in this, but the only good photo I have taken of her lately had me, with all 40 of my chins, wrapped all around her. Tiller never smiles for the camera [...]"
