Rhodes to Anywhere

SC had it’s time to vote today.  I was not going to vote.  It was 6:20 and the polls closed at 7:00. I was on the phone with Dave asking him if it was bad that I had no desire to go and cast a vote today.  I’m really not impressed with anyone on the…

Dave is back on the road this weekend.  He flew to Pensacola FL this morning. The house feels empty.  I mentioned to Emma last night that daddy was going to be gone the next few days.  She started crying.  It took me by surprise.  She then went on to say…. “It’s not fair.  I’ve only…

People in the South drive me crazy.  Yesterday I was heading home from work and stopped off at the grocery store.  Was out of milk and that is a bad thing when you have a 1 yr old.  I was surprised to see how busy it was at the store and then the milk was…

I said I was going to process stuff the next few days so here are my thoughts on last night…. Everyone has breakdown moments.  It’s a part of life and our journey.  It’s not an “if” these moments will happen it’s a “when”.  And based on where you are at in your journey you may…

Yesterday I celebrated my 32nd birthday.  It was a great day.  My husband planned a whole weekend of celebration with different pockets of people.  So it was a wonderful time.

My friend Jamie is heading to Haiti tomorrow to spend a week with their 2 children they are adopting.  I can’t tell you how excited I am for her and their family.  It’s to the point where internally it almost feels that I’m the one going to meet my kids.  Ok so that is a little…

“Never” things about Disney: 1. Never ever pay to go to Disney when it’s in season.  It will be the biggest waste of your money and time.  ((Disney was packed.  It took forever to get anywhere.  I could not believe all the people.  Don’t ever go over the Holidays.  So not worth it.)) 2. Never…

We made it to Florida today.  Our New Years experience in Daniel Island with our friends was connecting, peaceful, restful, extravagant …. those are just a few words that come to mind.  I am so thankful for our friends and Dave and I rang in the new year having one of our top 2 dining…

As I am heading into the new year..one thing I am not too worried about… my health.  Well at least for now.  I just got some really good news this past week and thought I would share. Back in September, Dave and I both went to our general Dr for a Physical.  Mainly we went…
