These days I mostly try not to write. My life is so full of work and family and weeding. But every now and then, my brain starts to itch and the only way to scratch that itch is writing. This is where you will find my most recent scratchings.

Order From Chaos
Despite my absence here for the last month and a half, I have not been master goddess of my domestic realm. I am always surprised when I take a break from blogging, I mean you’d think that the extra 1-2 hours per day would get me something. And of course it does, it gets me a slower pace of life, a calm that I do appreciate when I can manage to acknowledge it. But it does not get me a cleaner house or happier children.

Renegade Sister
That last post was partially just to have written a post, so that I could share with you yet another link. This one is very exciting for me.

Studying for the Bar is like finals x 100. And occurred directly following finals. Oh yeah, except for the part where we moved our…

This one is called Love and Lunchboxes, by Mama Mogantosh– a fellow erratic blogger and probably my favorite writer on the polarities of motherhood. She can crack me up hard, but this post is bit soft and cuddly.

Nudists Unite
I am coming back to you. Someday soon. I feel the stir in my brain. The desire, nay need, for an outlet. In the meantime, Shannon Hayes latest hilarious and true post on motherhood Naked Rules. I hear you sister. My greatest daily angst is wrestling clothes, of any kind or shape, onto my two naked revellers so we can leave the house.
