Enjoy The Queue
This weekend my friend Rachel and I are in Chicago at FanExpo selling (or trying to sell) her books. The fun thing about this particular “company” of conventions is that if you are an “Exhibitor” you get a free pass to anywhere in the building, basically. Erica has taken full advantage of that feeling of…

“Look at the hose, Erica”
Today I woke up with a plan. And immediately that plan was changed. For me, that’s not a huge deal. My life isn’t thrown into a tailspin every time something changes. If it was, I wouldn’t be a house cleaner. Nothing stays the same for longer than 3 minutes. The original plan for today was…

The “Age Old” Question
A conversation I had with a friend earlier today prompted this blog, so we’ll see if I can remain on task. A lot of people in the Christian “world” struggle with what is acceptable to expose their children to and at what age would a thing be appropriate.

A Person Of Peace
Against most of my friends’ better judgment, I am back sitting for some people. To be fair, every person I’m sitting for falls under one of two categories:– people I chose not to tell because they hardly ever ask for help, or– people that are more friends than they ever were clients. This week, I’m…

The Art Of Slowing Down
I hope you all don’t mind that I’m not putting pictures in my blog posts lately. Most posts with pictures tend to get more eyeballs, but when I do a blog on my computer, I don’t have any pictures that I can upload quite so easily. So words will have to suffice. I thought for…
