How was your week? Things were good here. Despite wishing I was at #BlogHer and trying to get caught up on blog comments, things were pretty low key around here. I started my C25K Program on Monday, started keeping track of calories again using My Fitness Pal, and I just feel better all the way […]

Growing up my mom was a stay-at-home parent. She did the school parties, the extracurricular activities, the housework, the laundry, the cooking…you know. Typical “mom” stuff. She rarely complained (though I chalk that up to the fact that when we got old enough, she made my sister and I start cleaning and doing laundry). I […]

Okay, well technically I am here as in around. Just not here here on this blog today. But I haven’t gone far. I’m visiting Kathryn over at Our Tiny Big Life for a little mommy talk. More or less, I’m discussing all of the ways I’m a total and complete #fail when it comes to […]

For those of us who are skipping out on #BlogHer this week, you absolutely have to check out the Summer Blog Social being hosted by Jessica @ 4 Plus an Angel and Liz @ A Belle, a bean & a Chicago Dog. They’ve written up some pretty great prompts to give us all a chance […]

It’s really hard for me to write this post. For me to open up, admit to my struggle and finally take the steps to do something about it. It’s been a long time coming, something that I’ve worked on occasionally, only in passing, and then given up and pretended that it didn’t bother me. I’ve […]

When it comes to blogging, I think I’ve gotten a pretty decent grasp on things. I interact on some of the most important social media platforms out there (Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Google Plus, Pinterest). I make sure my posts go up on these networks when they’re published and I’m make certain to expose my writing […]

How is your weekend going so far? I meant to get this posted earlier today (think, 7:00 am earlier) but the day has gotten away from me. The hubs had to work, the little man is sickly again, and it’s just been an emotional whirlwind around our house (more on that to come this week!). […]

So how was everyone’s week? Things were pretty good here at the “K” household. Lots of work for me, a few days of gorgeous sunshine (followed by some down days of RAIN) and a happy and somewhat healthier little boy. I know I’ve said it before, but I really love these posts…the ones where I […]

I always love running across new memes and blog hops that give me great ideas and inspiration for posts. Not that there is anything wrong with the fun quirky memes, or the Photography Challenges (which, by the way, did you notice that we just launched the debut of Still Life Standouts today?). You all know […]

Blue, blue, and more blue. No pink here, at least not yet (But that’s another story, for another day). When I saw that sonogram three years ago that showed me that I was going to be a boy mom, I had no idea what to do. I grew up with a sister, I had girl […]
