We don’t get much sun in Seattle and I think it only visited us for about a month or two this year so there wasn’t even much opportunity to soak it in. This is the time of year that I almost feel gross because I look like a ghost. I never spend much time in [...]

Recession bites.

I think I am pretty lucky compared to a lot of other people in this country. My house is valued higher than my loan (but I can’t sell it), we have health insurance (unfortunately expensive COBRA), my husband has a job (contract that can end at any moment), I have a healthy, beautiful baby boy [...]

I’m sitting here in the grocery store parking lot waiting for my husband to come out with grub for dinner. Every time I come here, there is a lady from Real Change magazine trying to sell newspaper for a $1 donation. My ignorant knowledge of this company is that it is a newspaper run by [...]

Since Jayden was about a year old, he started shoving every type of food in his mouth. Its great for us because there is more freedom with food unless, of course, it is a vegetable. He used to love them but suddenly there is a ban on healthy food since he knows there [...]
Blue Angels and babies don’t mix unless shaken well.

This past weekend was SeaFair in Seattle where we have hydroplane races and an air show. Technically, SeaFair lasts for about a month with a triathlon, marathon / run, parade, etc. For me, all that really matters is when the Blue Angels come to town. Yes, I may be even a little obsessed with them. [...]

I wasn’t sure if I was going to introduce my business on my blog because I don’t want it to seem like advertising or like I am trying to promote my business. My blog is my journal and an outlet for my feelings and experiences. In thinking of that, how can I not [...]

My wonderful husband went down to AT&T at Pacific Place in Seattle and the line was out the door, up the street and around the corner. Needless to say, he didn’t get the phone. Bummer. I guess they are getting more in tomorrow and will start the line at 6 am and [...]

We were in Chicago this past week visiting my dear friend Claudia that I met while studying abroad in Spain. She lives in the South Loop which is an up and coming area. There are tons of new condos being built and a lot of new restaurants and bars opening.
One night we went to Zapatista, [...]
