Holidays & Turkey Time

I like the holidays. I know some people LOVE the holidays but my son is not interested yet. We're going to see "Santa" tomorrow. (My oldest brother is dressing up for our community this year!)
I hope he doesn't freak but I'm sure he will. My son is two and his sister is 4 months and two weeks old and she has a wicked staph infection on her bum. Oh scratch that, she has MRSA and her bum which she developed from a staph infection we have been sharing but weren't in full acceptance of (on my part).
She's on antibiotics but it's a bummer. My son had horrific eczema. His skin literally melted off his face when he was her age and I couldn't heal him no matter how much breast milk I squirted on him! Funny coincidence-he was allergic to it all along...dumb mommy was poisoning her own baby.
So with my daughter's infected buns, I'm taking it one day at a time. I just read www.dooce.com and Armstrong totally summed it up for me. Granted, their dad comes from a family of 15 and he's the younger twin, we're still learning how to kick @ss and take names...MRSA better hope we don't get our ducks in a row anytime soon.

My 2020 Aspiration: Garth Brooks and Kelly Clarkson

One of the best days of my life in being able to support someone who has the capacity to help so many others. I had some amazing life lines I utilized and had the opportunity to support women showing up for other women in a way that we never have the time or opportunity to do as much as I would like to see...but for one day some beautiful and important relationships were made to help see someone through a transitional time in life that I still struggle with. I am so grateful for the ability to find support and direction in what it is that I'm doing and what it is that I can do better not only for myself but for my family.

Hierarchy of Needs

Here we go again, spring time is in the air and so is the excitement of trying to figure out how the summer will proceed. For the field of work that I now find myself it is a number of questions with the most pressing being: how to develop safe environments. There are so many factors but Maslow had some divine intervention to develop such a clear and concise theory. The coming week will be transforming and revealing for what we can accomplish or the coming quarter and year.

Fifteen Days to go-men's wear

For some reason I think Mountain Hardware jackets are sexy, if you are ever in a position to rock some mountain hardware for it's original purpose then you have to be rock solid and ready for whatever the elements bring your way. The Men's Nitrous is my favorite men's jacket, has been since it came out a few years back and when the price is right I think I'm going to snatch one up for some guy that deserves one, just cause it's an awesome outerware layer and looks good.
