Sleigh Ride, Flash Mob and a Victory Shot!

I have this list. A list of special events in my life that made me feel like the happiest gal in the world.  Currently, the list includes my college graduation, marriage to Dougie, birth of my children, and the day Oreo announced a new line of Double Stuff cookies. You know, the important things. Sunday, [...]

2nd Annual Pumpkin-Pummel

Last year, my little family discovered the sheer joy of post-Halloween pumpkin destruction. It’s exhilarating, it’s cathartic and when it’s 65 degrees like it was this afternoon, it’s some pretty sweet family fun. When Jack-o-lantern mouths begin to pucker and pumpkin skin starts to wrinkle, don’t just throw them away, grab a handful of tools and [...]

Sleigh Ride Anthology – “No Place Like Home”

 Do you hear that? The jingle-jangle of bells? The sound of horse hooves crunching through the snow? It’s coming! The sleigh ride is coming. On 11-11-11, the winter anthology, SLEIGH RIDE, will be released in e-book and limited print. The collection features four previously published authors and three newbies including ME!

VOGM Parents Alliance

 In 2005, my little family started a journey. It began when a pediatric neurologist gave us a devastating and confusing diagnosis, “your daughter has vein of Galen malformation.” For those of you who follow this kooky little blog, this is not news to you. I talk about it a lot. It consumed my life, my [...]

Sing it with me. . . POP goes the ster-num!

Tonight on the Twitter and the Facebook I posted this: danimichelle Dani Stone  Sternum caved in 2 days ago. It happens, don’t be alarmed. Popped back out when I reached for coffee on high shelf. PRAISE BE TO JAVA! At the time I was just posting the usual minutia of my life. . . like I do. . [...]

Love Drop Blogger Network – Paying It Forward

Love Drop. . . again you say? Yes, again. This time, though, we’re gonna pay it right-the-hell forward.   Last month I was so inspired by all the love shown to my sister, Lucy that I immediately signed up to become a member. In addition to contributing a certain dollar amount every month, I’m also [...]

Love Drop is the micro-giving site dedicated to helping one new family or person per month. Last month they [...]

Sleigh Ride Anthology – My First Published Story, Y’all

A few months ago I was approached by friend and author Malena Lott about possibly contributing a story to the first anthology offered up by her new press and promo service, Buzz Books USA. At the time I thanked her, then politely declined because I didn’t have a story in mind and with my hectic [...]
