Was my last blog post really January 20? Good grief. So goes my life the first three months of the year. I traveled to Atlanta, San Antonio, and Minneapolis for work and in between, I just tried to hang on for the ride – amidst a winter that showed its fangs this year. And there […] Read more…
You guys! I present to you the National Thanksgiving Turkey flock. It’s that time of year again … Thanksgiving. Turkey month.

You know, things like a full-time job and family activities and picking up special dog food at the vet’s […] Read more…
I apologize in advance that I’m not going to be able to write a completely coherent blog post about Thanksgiving week. I seriously am staring at my computer screen at a loss for the right words to describe my experiences last week in Washington DC. Thrilling. Hilarious. Exhausting. Surreal. Memories of a lifetime. How else can […] Read more…
