Back From the Cyber-Limbo

Posted on 27 October, 2019 by dilovelyadmin

Hi, lovelies!!! I’m really excited to be writing this, even though it’s going to be a silly, tiny post. I just have to write something. If you’ve tried to visit my blog any time in the last few-to-several months, you know that it has been SUSPENDED. (And if you haven’t tried to visit my blog…

NINE YEARS of blogging. WHAT.

Posted on 4 November, 2018 by dilovelyadmin

Hey, Lovelies, It’s my blogiversary this weekend! Technically yesterday – November 3rd – it was nine whole years since my first blog post ever. About which I said nothing to anyone. I barely knew what a blog was, but I was inspired by my sister blogging about her experiences in Europe, and had also read…

Breaking the Ice with Words and Grief

Posted on 3 September, 20173 September, 2017 by dilovelyadmin

Dear Sebastian, Forgive me. I know you need some attention. You’ve been persistently reminding me for more than a year, but somehow I haven’t managed to sit down and contemplate you properly. Last summer, your days were rushed into the beginning of Family Camp. I thought of you all the time, but couldn’t grieve or…

5-Day Artist Challenge, Day 1: Writing

Posted on 29 August, 2016 by dilovelyadmin

Okay, 5-Day Artist Challenge, here we go! In true OELC iArts fashion, I shall dedicate each of the five days to a different strand of art, and I decree that writing shall be first. Because obviously. If art is bread for the soul, writing is… let’s say sourdough. You get a starter of an idea, you…

Possibly The Randomest Book You’ll Ever Read

Posted on 16 March, 2015 by dilovelyadmin

On one of E’s earlier works, Daddy helped him with a short author bio in which it was conveyed that E’s goal is to make 100 books. He is barrelling toward this goal, let me tell you. He’s kind of obsessed with my stapler. Here’s a creation from this past week. I love how he’s unencumbered by the fetters of…

In Search of the Wagon

Posted on 2 January, 2015 by dilovelyadmin

Hey, lovelies. Happy new year! It feels weird, but REALLY good, to be writing this, after falling off that wagon three weeks ago and then skulking around the wagon trail pretending I might get back on at any moment but knowing in my heart that I’d never make it up into the jockey box with…

NaBloPoMo Meets 100 Happy Days – Day 1

Posted on 1 November, 201416 December, 2014 by dilovelyadmin

{Hi everyone! This is yesterday’s post. It was honestly ready to go on the appropriate day, but I have been having major technical difficulties with my blog. So I’m going to sneakily attempt back-publishing it – here’s hoping this silly post will actually post. And there will be Halloween photos – but the technical difficulties extended…

Writer’s Flood Paralysis and the Blogging Shame Spiral (a.k.a. excuses)

Posted on 5 May, 2014 by dilovelyadmin

What the Sam Hill… I haven’t posted since April 22nd?? Lots of bloggers complain about writer’s block and lack of inspiration. (Fortunately, lots of other bloggers offer solutions for both.) I can imagine getting blocked, if you’re a niche blogger. Some days you just might not have that kicky recipe or new fitness tip or…

A Story About Today

Posted on 10 December, 2013 by dilovelyadmin

Okay. This story is not actually about today. Last Friday, my mother-in-law – one of the most generous people I know – came to babysit, and got more than she bargained for. She came on the arranged day, even though she knew that Baby AB had woken up with a stomach bug of some kind…
