Me,Me,Me!
I spent most of last week enclosed in misery. I tend to go wacky when I can’t get me time and being my stepson spent last week with me while I watched him as his summer break schedule is diffe...
Birthday Wish Contest Results (take 2)
Well, I spoke too soon it seems. Minutes to a couple of hours after posting a comment that nobody participated in the Birthday Wish: What I’m Grateful For Contest, I had a few entries. I hon...
Berlinski and I Falling to our Knees
Things are just crappy right now. After several years worth of falls my knee finally gave out. It locked up a few days ago which required an ER visit. Now I’m on crutches. Did you all know...
The Scarlet Letter: Reflections of an American’s Expat Life
I’ve spent the last six years on international grounds and I cannot express the happiness I feel that the Bush administration will finally get the boot. What’s interesting to me is that ...
A Natural Savior
When I walk in the woods, it is the only place I can exist fully free. There are no Others to watch, ridicule, judge, advise, hurt or care. I can explore and reside as a being-of-this-world; simply,...
The Army’s Fuck Fest Ethics
I won’t vent too much but I have to. When we think about office politics and ethics we need to look no further than America’s Capitol Hill and the White House. The suck my dick or get fu...
Eroticism at the Art Hotel
Welcome to the Art Hotel in Old Town Heidelberg. It is by far one of my favorite places that not only provokes the artistic side for my husband and me but also erotic moments. Since our wedding an...
Happy Love
Today is my wedding anniversary.  I’ve been trying to remember our wedding song for days and last night my dreams kept playing all these different melodies in my head that I woke up with a he...
Nature Virgin No More
For anyone truly interested, my last walk resulted in going all the way. Yep, I’m no longer a nature virgin. I’m not sure what got into me but somehow courage to walk down that scary, ...
Priceless Dreaming
It’s dream board time. Every year on the summer solstice, Jen and I rearrange our schedules for this event. She’s been doing it most of her life; I’ve been doing it since she int...
Back to Nature
On my Health & Peace dream board I have the words “mindful walk” to look at every morning when I make myself a nice rich steamy sugar filled caffeine health packed espresso. Mindful ...
The Limbo Life
I arrived in Germany in Nov. ‘02 and traveled back and forth every 3 months between here and Florida as I decided if I really loved my husband to be enough to commit. I sold my business, my ki...
The Price of Love
Today was my toddler’s first day at kindergarten alone (‘daycare’ in Germany). It’s needless to mention she went into hysterics the moment I began to walk away. Eight years ago...
The Body, Beautiful
I finally reached the weight I was willing to compromise with. Since September I lost 25 lbs. I desperately need new clothes and undergarments because they’re too big - that’s a thoug...
Ecstasy
Some of the visuals are beautiful, others stunning but it’s in the melody and the words, how they make me feel, that I find ecstasy:...
Love 101: Take a Seat
 Today I learned how much I love my husband, yet again in a newly enriched way. I learned that true Love is something the majority of the population doesn’t understand yet builds concepts a...
On Becoming Sexy
 ”Ok, I’m ready,” I said, nervous about modeling. “Good,” replied my husband. “Take off your shirt. Be sexy.” I froze. A few months ago I said I was ...
The Alps: Dandelions & Mountians
My mind raced last night in bed. Exhausted from our Alps trip I tried to shut my eyes intently but my brain was wide awake, full of inspiration. The trip itself wasn’t really all that good.Â...
The Peaceable Kingdom
I took a pleasant stroll with my toddler yesterday afternoon. The warm air is something I tend to forget the feel of after a long, dreary German winter. In Florida where the sun reigns 11 months ...
Motherhood Connections
Here’s a window to my world. The candles and houseplants have been replaced by a barn and rollercoaster pegs on the window sill. Standing on a chair is my two year old. My curtains used...
Bittersweet Wrappings
Well, I thought I’d just relay the fact that a change in perception worked. Darn positivity. My bad situation sparked a creative idea; the bad is beginning to look good.  I’ve figured out a w...
The Fence Occupation
I’ve written about 4 blogs in the past few days, all of which I chose to tuck into my personal diary rather than my public journal. My thoughts are so tightly wrapped that anything I unravel turns...
A Dash of Magic
Last Thursday my daughter had a dream where in the middle of the town’s spring fest there was a pile of snow by the steps next to the church and the path that leads to the school. Beside it was a ...
A Testament of Strength
Events in my life is getting down to the wire. I can’t say what those are but they will involve a huge life change. On one hand I’m ready, on the other I terribly fear it because it’s only t...
First Rain, Now Wind
I had another Tatiana and the Can She Survive Nature survival course.*Â I tell you, something out there is trying to get me to take notice or I have some serious bad luck when it comes to taking walk...
Just Wondering…
Every time I finish a project, I loose focus on the next one. Maybe I just need a little mental break but if I take it, I’ll think of a slew of personal stuff that’s just running like a hurrican...
