I have a secret and I have no idea why it's a secret. I am homeschooling Ella. I started over a week ago, and I haven't really told anyone outside of my circle (other than homeschool groups on Facebook, then breaking the news to my Instagram followers). No real reason other than I don't… Continue reading So I Guess I’m a “Homeschool Mom” Now
You really should. I've noticed that since getting a hamster, I have been less stressed out, and just kind of even. Even, man.

I… Continue reading These Will Be The Good Old Days

Why? Who knows. I know of people in my life who've mentioned interpreting dreams… Continue reading My Dreams Will Give You Nightmares
I mentioned in part one the traffic hell we experienced on the road to Destin. Just after the Alabama rooster incident, Ella got car sick and had "sick" all over her clothes. Thank God she had layers on (us Midwesterners, always ready), so we literally stripped her down in an abandoned parking lot, … Continue reading Smothered, Covered, Chopped-Florida Spring Break Part Two
