The Lost Sea Adventure

March 21, 2018.Reading time 4 minutes.

Adventures look a little different when you have an 8 month old versus when it’s just you and your husband against the world. There’s a sense of fear that lingers. Before, it didn’t matter if you got lost, ran out of gas, got stranded etc. Before, deterrents were fun. Now ? I feel like I […]

Complacently Content

August 6, 2017.Reading time 5 minutes.

Complacency: : an instance of usually unaware or uninformed self-satisfaction Contentment: : feeling or showing satisfaction with one's possessions, status, or situation.

July 12, 2016.Reading time less than 1 minute.

Drink overly sufficient amounts of coffee. Have plenty of music ready. Playlists, cds whatever. Have enough! or listen to the same 13 songs over and over…. Or even worse… listen to the radio. Ride in a vehicle that allows you to put your head in the drivers lap so you can fall asleep more comfortably. […]

Cummins Falls State Park

July 3, 2016.Reading time 4 minutes.

I love holding his hand. I love random day trips and entering the weekend plan-less. Actually I hate entering the weekend plan-less, but it leaves plenty of room for spontaneity. It’s supposed to rain for 2/3’s of our July 4th 3 day weekend, so we ruled out a camping trip, which left me scheming. Michael […]
