first swim of summer

June 30, 2013 by Nancy Leave a Comment

  If your summers have followed a familiar pattern, first swim,  in the lake you have known forever, will wash over you with all the memories of all the summers you can remember. You are the little girl who swam endlessly until skin shrivelled, the pregnant woman cooling off feeling at … [Read more...]

I cannot do it all.

June 30, 2013 by Emily 2 Comments

I finally admitted to myself yesterday that I could no longer manage my beloved community garden plot; it was a wonderful place to go ... when we lived on the west side and could walk to it. But we moved this past autumn, and going there had become a chore. I loved it, and it broke my heart to leave … [Read more...]

words for wednesday- leaning against the wrong wall

June 26, 2013 by Nancy 2 Comments

For all of us who may have pursued the wrong person,  the wrong career, the wrong promotion, the wrong lifestyle, the wrong degree, the wrong idea of happiness, the wrong marriage- this really spoke to me. "We get to the top of the ladder and realize it is leaning against the wrong wall" And … [Read more...]

one at a time parenting

June 24, 2013 by Nancy 1 Comment

I am like most moms- a juggler. It does not mean this is done well but all those balls are in the air at once. They fall, I drop them, some smash  and on some occasions it is all a beautifully choreographed circus act. Is it time to mention single parent status here to further a point?  Because … [Read more...]

tell your people how you feel about them NOW

June 7, 2013 by Nancy 2 Comments

  "having a chat with dad, fishing" art studio for children As many of you know, I turned 50 in January. To tell you that it is surreal is an understatement. To tell you that it sucks the big one is to surrender more power to it than I am willing to, and, really if I am honest- I feel … [Read more...]

let it be

May 24, 2013 by Nancy 2 Comments

On our way to Kingston yesterday, car full of tools, cleaning supplies and unassembled Ikea furniture, this was the car in front of us. I was taking my 18 year old to her new apartment that she will share for next year and if it goes well another three years with 4 others. I had not seen it … [Read more...]

Work. Life. Imbalance.

May 21, 2013 by Emily 9 Comments

Work. Bills. Groceries. Dinner. Bathtime. Staying up too late, and getting up too early, and meeting every end but never making any end meet. At work, the two projects I was hired to manage are winding down, and the late stages are where the execution takes place, and the demands of actually … [Read more...]

Day of the Momma

May 12, 2013 by Amanda Leave a Comment

Mother's Day: was mine perfect? No way. There were still bums to wipe, lunches to pack for the next day, temper tantrums to endure and sibling fights to break up. But there was also Eggs Benedict on a sunny patio. And homemade gifts. And a nap. And the three beautiful girls who have made me … [Read more...]
