A Real, Raw Look at Me

I've never been good at intros. It's hard for me to start anything. I get a fabulous idea, dwell on it endlessly while I'm supposed to be sleeping, draw up plans and blueprints, giggle about how exciting it's going to be. And then months go by, and the plans sit.

Grimy Bathtub to Sparkly Clean

As you may remember, I did not move to our duty station at the same time as my husband. I had to pop a baby out of my body first before I could go cross country. So I don’t know if I can blame him or if it was there previously, but when I got here I noticed our bathtub had heelprint smudges all over the bottom. Now I know we are on an army base and...
