  • DC in March DC in March

    I just got back from visiting Mike in DC this weekend.  The weather couldn't have been more spectacular.  We headed to DuPont Circle on Saturday and walked around the White House that night. Sunday was the perfect day to be outside so we made the most of it by heading over to the National M...

  • Happy 5th Anniversary (to me!) Happy 5th Anniversary (to me!)

    Five years ago I started this blog to share my stories and adventures of my life in Hong Kong.

  • (Post) Social Media Moms Weekend (Post) Social Media Moms Weekend

    It is the Sunday following the end of the first Disney Social Media Moms Celebration at Walt Disney World Resort.  Today I can finally think straight, sort of, and not see the world with blurry eyes and a foggy mind. We wrapped up a very fun yet busy 3-day social media conference for moms an...

  • Sunday, Icy Sunday Sunday, Icy Sunday

    Temperatures in the 20's this morning across Central Florida. This has been a cold weather record-breaking week in the Sunshine state. And in my life-long Florida resident memory, I don't recall as long a stretch of cold weather as we've had so far in 2010! Whodathunk I would actually need my near-f...
