Hey, friends! It's been awhile since I've even thought about writing a blog post - any free time I've had in the past, oh, six months, has been quickly gobbled up by trying to really rest. It was only yesterday that for the first time in six months I've felt like I been able to … Continue reading coming up for air

what is it like to move to france?
I wrote a little bit about how I've been feeling about our move in my last post, but I thought I would share a little more about what it's been like for us to move to Paris. This might be interesting for people thinking about moving overseas, or just for those of you who are … Continue reading what is it like to move to france?
Questions: Musical Instruments
This is a series where I ask a question, and you (and I) have to answer it. Did you ever play a musical instrument? What was your experience with playing, if you did? I played the violin in orchestra class (we called it "Strings" as it was separate from the band that had brass, wind, … Continue reading Questions: Musical Instruments
Short Hair
After I got out of the shower after my hair cut (two months ago) and felt my once-long locks chopped and thin from the water, I felt like a cog. One of those cyborg half-human ladies from a dystopian sci-fi movie. Not that having short hair is bad, I just felt... bald. The last time … Continue reading Short Hair
When You Feel Like the Only One
Just things I was thinking about... Being 28, married for six years, and not yet in the stage of having kids is isolating. It's fantastic that my friends have or are having children. But since my husband and I aren't trying to be in that stage yet, I feel alone. I feel disconnected from my … Continue reading When You Feel Like the Only One

Checking In
Below follows my miscellaneous thoughts that have arisen from the past week... We are officially moved in in Colorado. The past week has been what people normally call "a blur." The blog scene has been one of the least of my priorities, falling below packing boxes, moving boxes, cleaning, scrounging up meals, shopping, finalizing tasks, … Continue reading Checking In
Travel
Wanderlust is what they call it; an insatiable desire to see, hear, smell, and taste more. More diversity, more picturesqueity, more depth, more generosity... More "culture." I could pick up and go at the drop of a hat. Or better yet, don a Panama hat. The getting there is as much the arrival as the … Continue reading Travel
In Response to All the Child-Having Articles
I'm at that stage in life where my friends are starting to have kids. Some of them are pregnant, some of them have babies, and some of them wish that they were having children. I'll just come right out and say it: I'm not there. Not "I'm not there" in the "I'm not there yet" … Continue reading In Response to All the Child-Having Articles
Perfectionist
Are you a perfectionist? I didn't fully realize how much of a perfectionist I am until this weekend. The temptation is for me to convince myself that I am not a perfectionist, because I know how imperfect I am. Well, isn't that exactly the type of thing a perfectionist would say? I hold myself to … Continue reading Perfectionist
