Hey guys, remember me? I’m the blogger who took a honkin’ break over the holidays…and let the re-entry period totally take over my will to blog/get dressed. Eight 14-hour drives in five months will do that to you. (I’ve heard.) So what’d we do? Enjoyed a not-so-restful but superbly family-filled Christmas on the East coast, rang in the New Year in our jammies (by 11pm), and…went to Las Vegas. (The latter of which is not a thing I do/have ever {Read More}
We’ll Take A Cup Of Kindness Yet.

Friends, here’s wishing you a wonderful Christmas, Hanukkah, and Kwanzaa- if you celebrate. If not, happy end of December. Either way, I wish you a joyful closing out of ’14 and ringing in of ’15. I’ll see you guys in mid-January, cool? And don’t miss me too much- I can be found on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and by clapping your hands real hard and believin’. Okay, maybe that last one is more “Tinkerbell” and less “Keely.” But you never know. {Read More}

Kinda like the Baby New Year (and her sister)…but noisier. Happy Day After New Year’s Day! Which isn’t a real thing, but I’m still in yelly, celebratory mode from this intense holiday season! So, I’ve gotta say, I enjoyed the heck out of my miniature blogcation- which is the last time I shall utter that word, I promise. (But I did.) It’s been a kinda crazed past few weeks, and it was nice
I Love Me A Good Even-Numbered Year.

The Baby New Year is a girl?! Happy New Year! Aaand, the posting of today’s blog is about three-ish hours late today. Nice start to 2012, yes? The delay was well worth it (at least for me), because our darling friend Natalie came over to smooch Zuzu and play magnetic dolls with Nora. (She also chatted with us, but I’m fairly certain we’re no longer the main draws.) So. Yes. A new year. 2011 was a pretty good time, overall. {Read More}
My house doesn’t even spin.

Let me be among the top five hundred to welcome you into 2011, three days in. I am deeply consumed with confusion over my absent flying car, meal tablet, robotic housekeeper…or any housekeeper at all, for that matter. (Do you hear that, P.J.? Do not feel limited by any type of maid. I would take Amelia Bedelia at this point.) Our New Year’s Eve was pretty normal and quiet, by rest home standards. The three of us stayed in our jammies- {Read More}

Sometimes things just don’t turn out at all how you expected. Example A: Instead of enjoying a cup of coffee whilst typing, the ottoman tray upon which my Mama Bear mug had previously rested decided to upend said coffee onto tray, couch, self- but most importantly, not computer. The empty mug is now being cradled by a vanilla powder-scented baby doll. This is a first. And sure, while annoying, it doesn’t really represent the bigger picture as well as- Example B: {Read More}
