Meet Amy

I have struggled with the answer when asked, "What do you do?" and it isn't work-related. Ultimately, we settled on that I find things and untangle things. But I also read (a lot), pretend to wake surf, and watch Hallmark films.

The Weekend Away
it was amazing
So so good! Orla and Kate are long-time best friends off on a girls' weekend away. Kate is a bit of a player who is trying to get back at her soon-to-be-ex, causing her to spend frivolously and do drugs and hook-ups. Orla is a new mom ex...

Maybe Next Time
really liked it

ProBlogger’s 31 days to Build a Better Blog Challenge – is underway

Pretty is as pretty does…

Raising two little girls presents some challenges. I think my girls are both beautiful, but there are times that they (okay, one of them) doesn’t think that she is. There are times when she’ll hang her head a cry because she doesn’t think she’s pretty because she doesn’t have brown […]
