My Baby Earned Her Taekwondo Black Belt
This day has been three years in the making. Both kids have been through hundreds of classes, practicing forms, punches, and kicks three to four times a week. For the past month, they have studied hard to make sure they knew the meanings of all the Taekwondo belt colors and the definitions of many core…
Read MoreReturn To The Tundra
I flew back to Minneapolis last Thursday to celebrate a good friend’s birthday. It seems to be a rare occasion as an adult to spend birthdays with my friends. They’re spread out from coast to coast and top to bottom of the country. But an invite was extended and it was hard to not think…
Read MoreSummer In February Until I Return To The Tundra
We have been having some absolutely fabulous weather in Atlanta. Also a bit crazy. The obligatory tornado watches come with the change from snowing one day and 70s in the next.

Up until this past week, I have been slammed with work. Since before Thanksgiving. I thought Christmas would bring a break, but it was just one day. And then I was back at it. More ten hour days than eights. A good solid two weeks of sixteen hour days. It’s all good. So much better…
