Susan was a rocket scientist. I loved being able to say that I was friends with a rocket scientist (ok, technically an astrophysicist), as if some of her brilliance might rub off on me. Susan was a mother. A wife. A blogger. A friend. One year ago today, on February 6, 2012, those of us [...]
Before heading to Type-A Parent Conference last week, I was chatting with a few friends about updating their head shots while we were there. I figured I’d set aside a few hours to take as many head shots as I could. What I never expected was that I would look back on those two hours [...]
I’ve always been a cautious driver. I’ve never had a ticket, and have never been pulled over for speeding. So I guess it shouldn’t surprise anyone that I was not exactly a pro at the Malibu Grand Prix when I was out in San Jose with YesVideo last month. Honestly, I was excited to let [...]
I love food. Finding good food is often a huge part of my travel plans and the places we eat can certainly make or break a day’s on vacation. Although my day at Disney World without kids last month was wonderful on its own, the dinner I shared with Caryn from Rockin Mama, Liz from [...]
KitKat, my oldest, is in love with two very cute brothers….and yesterday, they added another little boy to their family. She couldn’t be more thrilled. This afternoon, we took a little trip to the hospital, just me, KitKat, and a camera. For more inspiring photos, check: High Impact Mom, The Bonafide Life, Shanamama, From Dates [...]
It seems like ages ago that I got back from my trip to San Jose to visit YesVideo’s headquarters, but it really wasn’t that long ago. “Real life” tends to envelop me and make those glorious days of travel seem to be more distant than they really are. I left my memory card with all [...]
I had intended to leave my camera home for my Saturday at Disney World, but my friend Carrie convinced me that I would appreciate having a camera with me at Epcot. So I begrudgingly packed my heavy camera bag for the day. I am SO glad I listened to Carrie. She knew what she was [...]
When I was a kid, I wanted to be an author. I wrote books constantly (even won some awards for a few of my elementary school novels). But, strangely, once I got to college, I didn’t pursue writing at all. I went in a different direction with no regrets. It’s funny to me that after [...]
I have been to several blogging conferences over the last few years, but there is only ONE conference that I make a point of attending each year: Why you should join me at Type-A Conference: First of all, you will get to hang out with me. If that doesn’t convince you, read on… [...]
I met Jill Smokler years ago, in the infancy days of our blogging journeys. We became friends before we realized that we were neighbors. Since our first meeting in 2009, we have come a long way….or I should say JILL has come a long way. Jill is one of my heros, and if being a [...]
