Airline Hell
Welcome. Come sit by the fire right here in airline hell with me and I'll share my tale. It's been told by many but to experience it firsthand is really something else. And by "something else" I mean it's like nothing else because the shit that airlines get away...
Here Goes Nothin’
I can't believe it's actually here. By the end of this week I will be competing in a national dutahlon across the country. When I qualified and signed-up six months ago, it seemed like I had so much time. What the hell happened? I'm having all the usual anxiety...
My Meltdown
Since we've been talking and sharing so much about the fabulous book Mother of All Meltdowns written by some amazing bloggy moms, I decided that I must share my own colossal meltdown because it was epic. The twins were 2 years-old and we were visiting my brother and...
It’s Good To Have Goals
Last week I set three goals for my much trained for half-marathon. Do you remember? Certainly you do! What? You mean you don't commit all of my goals to memory? You have other "important" things to think about you say? Ok well, here's a reminder: 1. Finish...

VITA Does Vegas
I realize how that sounds but it is a post about Vegas so I'm gonna let it ride! Oh I'm cracking myself up with this stuff. I think I'm still drunk from the weekend...and I'm not just talking about alcohol. I'm drunk on freedom from the word "mommy" and on sleeping...
Ask Away Friday!
Go ahead, ask me anything! Unfortunately, I'm only talking to Michelle from Dish of Daily Life. She asked me to be her partner for this Friday's #AskAwayFriday link up and I jumped at the chance. I believe the exact exchange was: Michelle: Do you want to partner...
My Fear? Flying!
I know it's completely irrational. I've heard a million times that I'm safer in a plane then in my car. I know all the statistics of air travel and even know a few pilots. I'm still afraid. That's why it's called an irrational fear. When I sit on a plane and...
