Blogger Without a Cause
If I Ran the World, The work week would be four days. People would be more efficient because they'd know they only have four days to get their work done, and they'd be grateful for the three-day weekends. Think about it. Grocery stores would be designed so you'd walk into the dry foods section, then... Continue Reading →
So many people say they want to write or create, but can't get started. Some start, but then can't finish. Recently, I had a conversation with an aspiring writer friend about her struggles to get started. I got the impression that she thought writing was easy for me or that I had some special powers....

Today I have excellent news to share! I'm going to be a published author! (Woot woot! *Happy dances* and simultaneously pops Tums). Limitless Publishing will be publishing my novel, The Love Square, hopefully this winter! I've already started edits and everyone there has been awesome dealing with me, the newbie author, who has no clue and eight... Continue Reading →
Today a couple of things happened that made me think I'm perhaps losing my mind. First, I left the van windows open all night (yes, the van The Rock tried to fit his extra long baguette into). Admittedly, it's not the first time that happened, but now JC can add "damp, mildewy, and dank" to... Continue Reading →
A long, shrill, continuous beep . . . a flatline . . . Get the cart! Plug in the paddles! Rubs paddles together and places them on WOAW's metaphorical chest . . . All clear! Jess yells, as she shocks her blog alive. A quick blip . . . then another . . . LIFE!... Continue Reading →

As you can imagine, the mile-long paved pathway around the lakes is a magnet for dog walkers, joggers, bikers, strollers. It's lovely to have the lakes in our neighborhood and to me, they are the shining point of our... Continue Reading →
When two friends separately mentioned to me a book they read about decluttering their lives starting with their sock drawers, I knew the Universe was trying to tell me something. My sock drawer is crammed so tightly that it refuses to close unless I jam it shut with my full body weight. It's a disaster. Oh... Continue Reading →
For those of you who don't know, I was recently "restructured" out of a job. Remember my lovely job in downtown Trenton? (I posted about Trenton here and here). Well, it is no more. On one hand, this is not terrible. I wasn't thrilled with the job anyway and financially and emotionally, it made sense... Continue Reading →
From the Daily Post's Daily Prompt: Your home is on fire. Grab five items (assume all people and animals are safe). What did you grab? My MacBook (wouldn't want it to melt with my masterpieces living inside). My cell phone (to call 911 and so kids can watch Netflix at shelter/hotel). Our coats (it's friggin... Continue Reading →
Time it takes to find appropriate clothing for two boys on blizzard days: 45 minutes. Amount of time spent putting said clothes on boys: 15 minutes. Size of snowsuit that you are cramming your nine-year-old into: 6/7. Time it takes for little one to decide he has to pee after said clothes are in place:... Continue Reading →
