The L Word

I know I disappeared from the face of the internet for a little. I was going through some personal struggles and couldn’t bring myself to write. As I read over my past blogs I see a hint of romanticism that makes me giggle. I am a romantic through and through. I… Read full post »

Adventures in polyamorous vacationing

So, we made it. We went on our first family vacation since entering the world of polyamory and no one gouged any eyes out or “accidentally” fell off a cliff. It was actually, despite a few odd awkward moments, quite a pleasant vacation.

Embracing my Inner Holly

Lately I have been obsessing over breakfast at Tiffany’s. It has always been one of my favorite films and I finally took the time to read the book. I think that I have always identified with Holly. She is a girl who is different, she struggles to fit into a world… Read full post »

The Little Things

My house is so quiet now; the kids are asleep. Edward is out with Jane.
