Tuesday, December 31, 2013. A Little Recap and an Update. Wow what a year its been! A good one at that!

Here are a couple of Christmas break pictures:. So many peop...

Nan Goes From Nam to Nash. Otherwise known as my journey from America to Africa and back again. Wednesday, June 6, 2012. A brief haiku ode to chapati, my one true African love:. Chapati, you thief. You've stolen my heart and soul. Yum, doughy goodness. Fresh off the hot coals. My tummy bulging with joy. Get in my belly. Back home we don't know. Cheap joys of daily fried dough. We should, don't you think? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" - Jonathan Safran Foer.

http://karenemcgee.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Nan Goes From Nam to Nash. Otherwise known as my journey from America to Africa and back again. Saturday, March 10, 2012. Darkness is a Harsh Term, Don't You Think? Roll away your stone, I'll roll away mine. Together we can see what we can find. Don't leave me alone at this time. For I'm afraid of what I will discover inside. Cause you told me that I would find a hole. Within the fragile substance of my soul. And I have filled this void with things unreal. And all the while, my character, it steals.

Nan Goes From Nam to Nash: Glenview in a Day
http://karenemcgee.blogspot.com/2012/06/glenview-in-day.html
Nan Goes From Nam to Nash. Otherwise known as my journey from America to Africa and back again. Monday, June 11, 2012. Glenview in a Day. A ten hour layover in Chicago afforded me the opportunity to spend a day in my hometown suburb of Glenview, IL. What does one do when one has to cram all the best things of this town into one day? 1 Have tea time with Nanny and talk about the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. 2 Entice your dogs with some tunes on the keys. 3 Eat a whole bowl of M&M's. 9 Lay on the sandy beach.

Miracles of Life: February 2014
http://littlebigmiracleoflife.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 26, 2014. The story of January 30, 2014. For those that are interested here comes the story of January 30, 2014! No nasty details, just the way it all went down! Please forgive typos, mostly one handed typing due to the child sleeping on my chest who will scream if I move. We got in the car and Austin asked, are you ready? I just started crying and said no! But again, blood thinner and clots aren't fun either. Onward! We waited a bit to get an L and D room and I got a mini ginger ale!

Sunday, November 3, 2013. A No Pressure Run. Friday I texted my husband, I needed a run, things were starting to feel better.

In 2013, I signed up again for this awesome race, but then I saw it, the Cradle to the Grave 30K. At the finish in 2010 with my Mom, Dad, son and one in the oven! The rac...

Nan Goes From Nam to Nash: Thriving
http://karenemcgee.blogspot.com/2012/06/thriving.html
Nan Goes From Nam to Nash. Otherwise known as my journey from America to Africa and back again. Sunday, June 10, 2012. I might even grow accustomed to the storm. Of car horns and vendors. Can there be anywhere else in the world that is such an assault on the senses. Those who know the country though just go about their business. But nothing can prepare the uninitiated for this riot. Of noise and color - the heat, the motion, the perpetual teeming crowds. Initially, you're overwhelmed. How Sweet It Is.
