lite bleu: April 2011
http://litebleu.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Random ramblings on life in technicolor. Tuesday, April 19, 2011. In search of patience. I read this blog post. Today by a self-proclaimed mommy blogger, who wrote about the fact that throughout history, it was men who told the story of women, and that somehow, "women's work" has always been that which should only be discussed privately. This post totally resonated with me. Perhaps it's because I had one of those days. He sleeps eventually, as I remind myself to breathe. Thursday, April 14, 2011. From th...

lite bleu: May 2011
http://litebleu.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Random ramblings on life in technicolor. Friday, May 20, 2011. Sometimes life just sends you a party. I love it when that happens. At the end of the day, all of those parties just add up to a pretty spectacular life, and I know I am blessed. I loved my party and it made me realize that no matter how long or how far, family is what really connects us all. Somehow, even when the invitation is late, they show up. How cool is that. Sunday, May 15, 2011. Tuesday, May 10, 2011. I fully expected results, but no...

lite bleu: March 2009
http://litebleu.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Random ramblings on life in technicolor. Monday, March 02, 2009. Getting back to business. How to make this happen eludes me just now. I have few contacts in this city I now call home. I realize that I am discerning when it comes to friends, but the fact that I've made so few seems a bit ridiculous. I've volunteered my services for a couple of non-profits, hoping it would bring in a little "for-profit" business - but that hasn't happened. What's a girl to do. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

lite bleu: mommy space
http://litebleu.blogspot.com/2011/07/mommy-space.html
Random ramblings on life in technicolor. Friday, July 22, 2011. A couple of months ago I decided that sharing the ride to work made perfect sense in my world. I could save money and have some company riding through the cornfields on my way to the office in Iowa. I talked to a colleague, who made the same daily trek from the city and we planned to begin the following week. What I didn't count on was the safe mommy space carpooling has created for two full time writers who also happen to be mothers of pres...

lite bleu: traveling south dakota
http://litebleu.blogspot.com/2011/07/traveling-south-dakota.html
Random ramblings on life in technicolor. Saturday, July 23, 2011. On our last road trip I took some notes, and this me, observing the South Dakota east of the Missouri River. Strange how a stand of old cottonwoods suddenly appear and the trees spread their leaves and branches right in in middle of a perfectly groomed cornfield. Who decided to let them stand, and why? The weather has not been kind today. Strong winds and rain twisted sturdy tree trunks leaving them bending and crippled. Sheets of ...We pa...

lite bleu: January 2010
http://litebleu.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Random ramblings on life in technicolor. Wednesday, January 20, 2010. So many of life's special moments are this way. When Scout takes my face in his hands and gently rubs my cheeks, or the way he "reads" his favorite books to me, getting some of the words mixed up, and looking to me for guidance. Will I forget the serious look he gets on his face when he's puzzled, or the joy I see when I surprise. Him at daycare and he rushes into my arms and says, "Mommy.". Saturday, January 09, 2010. I could write ab...

lite bleu: April 2009
http://litebleu.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Random ramblings on life in technicolor. Thursday, April 30, 2009. Scout just hanging out. Just wanted to share.he's so much fun! My whole life I have felt very comfortable that as long as it wasn't "brain surgery" there was nothing to fear, no challenge too fierce, and no road too rocky. And so I took risks and put myself out there on the line, virtually sure that as long as no one's life was in my hands I was good to go. Pretty simple rule to live by, and quite full of adventure. Do I have any options?

lite bleu: white - a poem
http://litebleu.blogspot.com/2011/07/white-poem.html
Random ramblings on life in technicolor. Friday, July 08, 2011. White - a poem. I was born white. The daughter of two middle class Americans. With the blood of Germany, Hungary, France, a Canadian tracker. And maybe a little slave girl and a Mexican farm worker tossed in for color. I chose this life. As you did yours. Long before the coupling which brought about my birth. Chose this life of privilege. Where there is no worry about getting killed on my street. With a lush lawn. And bind your wrists. You d...

lite bleu: October 2011
http://litebleu.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Random ramblings on life in technicolor. Friday, October 07, 2011. Liar, liar, pants on fire. So many things are happening and not happening that I'm a bit lost. If they're not big fat liars, than they must be superhuman. While most of them admit that it's difficult, they still maintain that it's doable. I just don't see it. The big decisions become:. Can I skip a bath tonight? Do I really want to watch Project Runway, or should I finish that book on time management? Should I check my twitter feed? Some ...
