I read your blog, I really do, and I have all sorts of wonderful things to say about it.

unfortunately, blogger has not let me comment on someone else's blog for weeks, and I don't know why. Some setting got all screwed up, and I can never comment with my google profile. So, yes, that thing you posted about your kids? adorable. Your new house? Fabulous!  That video of the guy jumping out of the airplane? Wicked awesome. That Tiffany Lamp that you found at a thrift store for $3 that's worth more than my car?  I'm SO happy for you.  That loser finally left you and you're sad about it, wah wah but really we're all so glad that he's out of your life and now you can be the woman we always knew you could be? congratulations.  Your much too detailed commentary on your digestive system? um, actually, I probably wasn't going to comment on that.

But to the rest of you, I'm silently, creepily reading along.

It's been a wonderful fall. It seemed every tree has burst out in bright, hypnotizing gold this year, with hardly any red or orange, and I've been able to witness a lot of it. I'm immensely grateful to have the sort of work/life schedule where I can go out and enjoy the crisp air and changing colors and shocking beauty of fall. Unlike other years where I've had to tamp down my agony about the colder weather, for once, I was happy to put the summer behind me and walk into the future. In all honestly, this past spring and summer were maybe the most difficult I've traversed in my happy, comfortable first-world life. It's been a bit of a transition, leaving behind a good career and bustling office for a better career but lonelier landscape. Saying goodbye to my mare and finding her a better fit ultimately led to me taking a break from what has been an emotional, physical, social, therapeutic outlet and passion for me for many years, which in turn meant losing re...

A Balanced Life

Picking up the Copperpot on paint day at school (note the purple hair!) After coming back to work part time a month after I had the Copperpot, I was exhausted, shell shocked, and hyper aware of how tiny my baby still was. I couldn't fathom leaving her in anyone's arms but her grandmothers, and I was extremely lucky that those women took on that task so willingly in those early months to allow me to go back to work and try and figure things out.  When the maternity leave ran out and my baby was still tiny, despite the huge decision ahead of me, it wasn't even a decision. I couldn't send my newborn to a giant daycare. Or a babysitter. That's not to say that I think women who do are less good mothers - in fact, I think they're 100 times stronger and braver than I will ever be.  So I decided to quit my office job and pursue my side project of freelance writing as full time as time would allow while still being home with the critter. In just a few mont...
