Much Ado About Nothing: October 2012
http://hayslin.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Much Ado About Nothing. Wednesday, October 10, 2012. This past weekend, my sweet husband and I made my yearly pilgrimage back to the Mothership. Auburn. Glorious Auburn. From the moment we drove into town, everything went wrong. But did I stay until the bitter end? Absolutely. I sang the fight song as the defeated players piled back into the locker room. And I was thrilled to go downtown afterward, even if it meant hanging out with a bunch of Arkansas Hogs. Links to this post. Sometimes it's more serious.

Much Ado About Nothing: Into the Woods, Part I
http://hayslin.blogspot.com/2013/02/into-woods-part-i.html
Much Ado About Nothing. Sunday, February 24, 2013. Into the Woods, Part I. A few weeks ago, Alex and I joined a new church- Grace Fellowship Presbyterian. Our parents joined us as the congregation welcomed us into their fold, and we have been really thrilled to be a part of this fantastic church community. 99% of the time, that is. See, my dear friend Clay, the youth minister at GFPC,. The cabins are heated, he said. We'll hardly be outside, he said. How naive I was. Of our heating situation. Note: outdo...

Much Ado About Nothing: May 2012
http://hayslin.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Much Ado About Nothing. Sunday, May 27, 2012. I held it together all week. Even with a debilitating bout with two kidney stones resulting in a huge delay in all the things that needed to be done. I held it together Friday night, when Lauren gave a speech that made the whole house misty-eyed. I thought at that moment that I wouldn’t make it through the weekend. I held it together as I listened to Dr. Thompson’s emotional charge to Alex and the congregation, as Dad and I stood in the vestibule wa...And eve...

Much Ado About Nothing: September 2012
http://hayslin.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Much Ado About Nothing. Friday, September 14, 2012. All through college, I longed for a set routine. Just as soon as I got used to one set of classes and alarm clocks, the semester changed and with it my schedule and routine. Grad school was the same, and internship almost killed me between internship, an after-school job, planning a wedding, and sharing joint custody of weekends with Alex, who was living in Birmingham at the time. Most of my days go like this. Alex has been playing basketball with a gro...

Much Ado About Nothing: August 2012
http://hayslin.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Much Ado About Nothing. Wednesday, August 22, 2012. Instead, I got "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.". Sure, the song is catchy. I sing along, and of course I support Taylor in all that she does. (although, admittedly, I'm a little concerned about her recent interest in a young Kennedy- Taylor, google "curse.") But this is the first time in my T-Swift fandom that I've not been able to relate. And frankly, it's not doing much for my quarter-life crisis. Have I outgrown Taylor Swift?

Much Ado About Nothing: Cat & Mouse
http://hayslin.blogspot.com/2013/04/cat-mouse.html
Much Ado About Nothing. Wednesday, April 17, 2013. I want to share a little story with you- a story that is not for the faint of heart. Last Thursday, I was getting ready for work- curling my hair and eye lashes, putting on blush and mascara- the usual, when I noticed that my cat, Macy, was acting a little bizarre. She was hyper-alert; her eyes were wild, and her gaze was darting around the room. I figured she must have spotted a fly or something. So I continued on with my usual routine. Oh no, the eyes ...

Much Ado About Nothing: Life Gets in the Way
http://hayslin.blogspot.com/2012/12/life-gets-in-way.html
Much Ado About Nothing. Monday, December 10, 2012. Life Gets in the Way. I think about blogging almost everyday. My kids at school do something almost every period that I think- I've got to write this down. Unfortunately, I get home in the afternoons with zero desire to look at a computer screen. And so, day after day, my stories and thoughts get put off until they don't feel relevant anymore. So, although anyone who read this blog often has surely given up on me by now, here I am. Back again. View my co...

Much Ado About Nothing: Into the Woods, Part II
http://hayslin.blogspot.com/2013/04/into-woods-part-ii.html
Much Ado About Nothing. Wednesday, April 17, 2013. Into the Woods, Part II. And back into the frozen abyss we go. Ah, yes. About 6 weeks ago. I had just barely survived a night in a cabin hovering right at freezing temperatures. When I sauntered back into the cabin after breakfast, too sleepy to even cry, there was a man in our cabin fixing the heater. My jubilation was what I imagine Mary felt when she found the angel in Jesus' empty tomb. So I maybe slipped up on the whole "Counselor Lindsey" attitude-...
