		<title>Mother&#8217;s Day Weekend was relaxing&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Dave travels a lot for work these days. I am home a lot with the kids by myself. So after a week of playing "single mom," Dave and I went to Red River Gorge sans kiddos with friends. We had a wonderful cabin with a nice fire pit area and hot tub. We hiked, rode [...]]]></description>

		<title>The mini is over</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last weekend, Dave and I both walked/ran the Derby Mini Marathon. I felt determined for many weeks, but the night before the race, I was terrified. Even though I had been training off and on for months, I wasn't sure if I could make it! But I did finish. It wasn't a great finishing time, [...]]]></description>

		<title>letting go</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For a long part of my life, I've held onto grudges and beliefs and things that though weren't good for me, helped to make me who I am today. But recently, I have felt the need to let go of those things. I'm feeling like I have found a whole new level to life. Perhaps [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sunshine</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This weekend has been amazing. My mood has been greatly uplifted. Sun, warm breeze, outdoors, family and amazing friends. That's what makes life grand. Spring has always had a way of making me feel more alive. This spring is especially awakening. Bring on the sunshine!]]></description>

		<title>RIP Lucille Epling&#8211;My Mamaw</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On Friday, while we were in Florida on spring break with the kids, my sister called. My mamaw died at 11:30 that morning. We drove home on Saturday morning and spent this evening (Sunday) at the visitation. I felt sad on the trip to the funeral home, but once there, family started sharing old stories [...]]]></description>

		<title>Going well&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Things have turned around in the past few months. I feel grateful and thankful for so many things in my life. Recently, though, my mamaw (mom's mom) was put into hospice and given only a few days to live. She's hung on for over a week now. It's so sad to see someone go in [...]]]></description>

		<title>RIP Princess Pebbles Mays</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On December 22, 2009, Princess Pebbles Mays turned 12 years old. That same day, she suffered some sort of stroke and couldn't walk. Such a sad, awful day. She was put to sleep on December 23. She was my baby from way back before we ever thought we would even have babies. I miss her [...]]]></description>

		<title>I&#8217;m back&#8230; with a list</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ok, I know it's been forever. Sorry. I was working two jobs from home, stressed, taking care of the kiddos, and preparing for the holidays. But I am back. I suppose most of the time I was working was when I was writing for other people, so that sort of burned me out on writing [...]]]></description>

		<title>Unbelievable</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Early this morning, Dave and I were awakened by our house shaking. We jumped up, thinking something had exploded or hit our house. We looked out the windows and all I could see (without my glasses on) were tree limbs in the road. I thought "could it be a bad storm?" But Dave barreled out [...]]]></description>

		<title>Yes, I speak mom</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Awhile back, I read another mom's blog about the crazy things she says each day. Here are a few lines of my own mom lingo from this week... * Lola, I can talk to Daddy if I want to. * We don't eat money. * Where does poop go? * Yes, Zack, if you tell [...]]]></description>
