After a lot of thought and deliberation, I am changing the name of the blog.
It's taken longer than I thought to actually find something fitting. I felt like I had Hermione Grainger, Dorothy, Alice and Peter Pan all in my head at one time.
I'm not sure why most of them are British, but I knew that one of them would show me something bloody brilliant to represent what I'm trying to write about here.
I wanted a literary reference to magic that could link to both children and adults . I was right. But it was Bert from Mary Poppins that I was missing.
"Winds in the east, mist coming in. / Like somethin' is brewin' and bout to begin. / Can't put me finger on what lies in store, / But I feel what's to happen all happened before."

I feel like this has all be
brewin' for a while. Time to stop giving in to the industries that make
it hard to stay home with a sick child or to even take a week's
vacation. I want to fall into magic craziness like Alice, or wield a
wand and defend house elves like Hermione. I want to be the Pan like Peter. But I'm not those
people. I'm not Mary Poppins either, but I so totally identify with
her. Surly at times. Kind and understanding, most always. Providing
magic at as often as possible. I almost think I could fit a floorlamp in my
pocketbook.
Winds in the east are very rare here, just like the
chance to reinvent day to day life. I have to be very careful as I choose
my next step, but at the same time I choose to be as confident and
surefooted as Mary when she dove into the life of the Banks family.
This is my family, and this is our life. We want a certain "muchness" out of it, and this is my time to ready myself for a career that allows me to give my magic and muchness to my family.

So I am Winds in the East. Right now, it's misty. But something is
absolutely brewing and about to begin. I can't put my finger on what is
in store. But I'm loving that no matter what, it'll be different than
before.
Now I need to go watch Mary Poppins. Chim Chiroo!!
