I’ve considered purchasing a domain name and moving my site for quite a while now. It’s not as if I bring in a ton of traffic, but I like the idea of having my own space. Even as blogging seems to be on the decline, it is a part of me and I like the feeling of owning it. So here it is, along with all of my old posts and sans pseudonyms. Is anyone really typing all my kids names in to a search engine to find me anyway? Probably not. And if they are, so be it. I don’t have anythingmuch to hide.
Place missing segue here:
So my girls’ trip is this weekend, and of course I am most excited about spending time with Shelly, Becky and Kori, but second to that, I am excited about my 3 hours alone each way, in a clean rental car that is not full of crumbs and toys and games and screaming people. I am excited to listen to whatever I want or to even drive in silence. I am excited for air conditioning. I am excited for the longest trip I have ever taken on my own.
I’m the type of person who enjoys silence and being alone with my thoughts. With 3 kids around, I seldom get that opportunity. So yes, I’m looking forward to the drive, and to hopefully come back as a more relaxed mama.

Like the new space – so exciting!!
Cannot wait for this weekend. Could not be more perfect timing!!!
I am freakishly excited about this weekend.
I found you! Can you believe we’ve been friends since about 2000? Amazing. I hope you have a fabulous time, the best bit will be the time to yourself – I guarantee it (not to say that these wonderful women are not amazing, but when you never get that space to think, it is like a precious and rare gift). I will be thinking of you!
I hope you have a great time!
I can’t seem to make my blog look right, so I might be doing this soon too. Looks great!
You ladies have fun on your trip – what a fun group!
