My name is Michelle, and I live in Reno.
This is what I saw on my way to class this morning. Well, it wasn’t technically a sunrise, but it sure did look pretty.
It definitely set the stage for what has already been a fantastic day.
I’ve been ridiculously addicted to Sundance Channel’s “Live From Abbey Road” since I discovered it a few months ago. The second season opened with Bryan Adams, Ben Harper, and Justin Currie. Harper (who is unfortunately not related to me) talks about his background in music and his love for writing. As a writer (and a […]
Why is it that I can’t seem to tell anyone “no”? No, I can’t edit your manuscript for free. No, I can’t go out with you tonight because I have things to do in the morning. No, I can’t write about diagnosing video cards because I don’t know anything about them.
While working at a large […]
When a down-and-out looking guy knocked on my door a couple weeks ago, saying he was short on money for diapers for his baby, my heart cried out to him. He said he would cut my lawn for whatever change I could give him. We asked if he could pull the weeds, and […]
Spring is my favorite time of year — when birds are making their nests, the daffodils are blooming, and I’m in full cleaning mode. It’s a time for rebirth for me: a time to clean up my house, my mind, my attitude.
A few weeks ago, my husband and I took the kids to Daffodil […]
I originally wanted to call this post, “Six Flights in Four Days: How I Traveled Across the Country with My 10-month-old Baby,” but I thought that might be a little long. But I want this to be a sort of “how-to” article for other parents flying for the first time with their child/ren. […]
I’m nearing that ever important milestone on turning 30 (just two and a half weeks from this post), and I have been reflecting on just what I’ve done with my life these last three decades. The first two were pretty uneventful, but this last one sure has been a fantastic roller coaster ride.
First, here […]
On April 7, 2008, I will turn 30 years old. Not young, but old. For some reason, I’m putting a lot of emphasis on this milestone. I know a lot of people do, and I’ve never understood why. But now that I’m here, facing my agedness, it’s hitting me.
I’m not young […]
So I started this website as a means to write about whatever I feel like, and since then, I’ve been blocked. I’ve never felt so much pressure to write before! I don’t know why my mind is making such a big deal out of this, but for some reason, it is.
I work as a copywriter […]
I plan on using this website to write about topics that are of interest to me - writing, parenting, social media, music, photography, education, movies, and whatever else I feel passionate about that day.
So stay tuned and get ready to be enlightened, amused, impressed, excited, bored, moved, etc.
This is a place for me to write about whatever I feel like, to post pictures of my kids and anything else I want, and to pretty much just have a place to share my thoughts. I will also update this for me English 098 students at TMCC. Please be sure to check back often for updated lectures and syllabus.
