Warning Lights

Posted on August 22, 2008 by Tentative Equinox North

As I unbuckled my youngest from his car seat, I took a look at the back seat of my car. Oh dear. Suddenly, an unwelcome epiphany crystallized into a dark forbidding mass that could no longer be ignored. This was my epiphany: … Continue reading →

Diagnosed vs Undiagnosed

Posted on June 19, 2008 by Tentative Equinox North

I chanced upon an old friend a couple of weeks ago. I mean we know each other from a ways back, not that either he (or I) are old. He, (too bad for him come to think about it), asked how my … Continue reading →

Be My Own Stage Manager

Posted on June 16, 2008 by Tentative Equinox North

Writing the post “Overheard in My Brain,” while also being great fun to write, gave me an epiphany: I need to be my own stage manager. The stage manager has a cue-book, with the script, the blocking and all the … Continue reading →

True Confessions

Posted on June 2, 2008 by Tentative Equinox North

Private Guilt vs. Public Judgment

Posted on May 27, 2008 by Tentative Equinox North

Since this post, I’ve been really trying to sever my links between food and guilt. I’ve been listening to what my body wants to eat and giving it that no matter how much my nutrition indoctrination screams otherwise. And that’s interesting, because … Continue reading →

All by myself

Posted on March 26, 2008 by Tentative Equinox North

I got stuck getting into my sports bra yesterday. There I was stranded, half way in, half way out, arms flailing uselessly like some as-yet-undiscovered anemone. And of course, it is at this inopportune moment when in walks the 3-year-old. He pauses … Continue reading →

Happy New Year!

Posted on March 14, 2008 by Tentative Equinox North

Tomorrow is my birthday! I love my birthday. I’m not so sure about the numbers that seem to be escalating alarmingly, but I just avert my eyes from that and be happy because it’s MY DAY! MINE! And, I think … Continue reading →

Job Descriptions? We don’t need no stinkin’ job descriptions!

Posted on March 4, 2008 by Tentative Equinox North
