I'm really proud of myself this week. When I decided to change the setting of The Descendants, I thought for sure that I would have to go back and rewrite the chapters I already had. Specifically anything regarding Herculaneum. And then I had an epiphany. It occurred to me that I could leave all the … Continue reading Herculaneu…where?

The Terrible Twos
The Boyo turned two this weekend. Two! It feels like just a few weeks ago he was this tiny baby. And now he's this little boy who likes dragging me around the house by my finger, shrieking at the top of his lungs, climbing on things, and giving me gray hairs. We celebrated his second … Continue reading The Terrible Twos
The Other Side…
I'm feeling a bit better this week. Things are still rough here and there, but Mom is home from the hospital, the family drama has calmed down for now, and I had a lot of fun doing an interview with my good friend Jewel E Leonard that she posted on Friday. I also celebrated … Continue reading The Other Side…
More Outlines…
It was another busy weekend at the Olson household. We got rid of the old hardware on the vanity, did some dry brushing to give it some texture (only to realize later that repainting it black would have looked amazing... so much so that I may do it in a couple of weeks), and put … Continue reading More Outlines…
Saved by the Outline…
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to write much this week, but it was still a productive week. Hubby and I tackled the side yard and back yard and turned it into a nice little play area for the Boyo. We chopped down some of the bushes, and leveled out the ground using mulch, dirt, and a … Continue reading Saved by the Outline…
One Less Thing…
I apologize for not commenting on anyone else's blogs. I swear I meant to. And then time flew by like it tends to do. Suddenly it was Friday, and then it was Sunday, and now here we are and it's Wednesday once again. I swear I'll do better this week. Remember how I said last week … Continue reading One Less Thing…
Ch-ch-changes…
It's been a couple of weeks since I last posted. I didn't mean to go so long between posts, I swear. It just kinda happened. So let me give you a quick update on what's been going on around here lately: I'm closing down my mommy blog. Unfortunately that means you'll probably see more parenting … Continue reading Ch-ch-changes…
Shortest WIPpet Ever…
Well, at least in the history of this blog. I'll just confess right now - I didn't get any writing this past week. I still haven't quite gotten the hang of the new therapy schedule for the Boyo, and the assorted Mother's Day activities that were going on were just crazy. I wasn't even sure I was going … Continue reading Shortest WIPpet Ever…
A Short Break…
I apologize for not posting for a couple of weeks. The regional center recently bumped up the Boyo's therapy from 4 hours a week to 6. Between that and the speech therapy he receives twice a week through our insurance, every single day has something going on. Free time is a distant memory. I did … Continue reading A Short Break…
Something a Little Different…
We survived Easter. Barely. The dinner itself was totally fine. It's just that touching up the cabinets and changing the hardware turned out to be a much bigger ordeal than either myself or my husband expected it to be. It took up most of the day before Easter, in fact we didn't finish until after the … Continue reading Something a Little Different…
