Last night after I was done slamming Mike's head into my big ol headboard I rolled over and went to sleep. I needed my rest so I could head out into the wild for some camping. In October. When it's cold. I'm manly like that. When I get back I'll probably drink a 6-pack and … Continue reading because I wear the pants in this family…

digging the hole…
I'm up to my neck here people. To. My. Neck. I'm getting all this stuff done that needs to get done plus reading books and staying relatively sane but I had this nagging feeling that I was forgetting something. Something little. Something big. I don't know something. It may be that I've been so caught … Continue reading digging the hole…
nothing from me…
I've got nothing to talk about right now that won't bore me to death or make me sound like a complete neurotic... which I guess would be fair. So instead I'm going to try a little bit of subterfuge and say "Hey look over there..." You like music don't you? Go check out the Duo … Continue reading nothing from me…
talents…
We all have our own special talents. Everyone is unique in some way and even though some of us may seem plain and ordinary and that special skill is hard to put your finger on, it's there. Sometimes though you would rather forget about it. As I'm sure my mom, dad, brother and cousins could … Continue reading talents…
expanding on a tweet
Life always has that when it rains it pours crap happening and when I see it in my life it seems there's always a balance of good and bad rain. Like at the same time. Always. And I can live with that. You take the good with the bad and all that and you just … Continue reading expanding on a tweet
persona non grata
My kitties are now persona non grata. Seriously. Officially. The tests results are in and Mike is allergic to them. So I had Mike's doctor draw up all the documents to declare them unwelcome. Doctors can do that right? I mean really, if a ship's captain can marry people I don't see why a doctor … Continue reading persona non grata
two aprons and a garden gnome…
It's funny what your life boils down to. A few weeks ago Mike's grandmother died. It seems cold to put it so matter of factly. To state in a 7 word sentence the passing of such an amazing woman, but as my darling husband has pointed out on many an occasion, I'm cold to keep … Continue reading two aprons and a garden gnome…
because I’m a 14 year old girl
It's suddenly become very clear to me that I am not actually a 32 year old woman. All the signs pointed to it but I just didn't pick up on them until this very morning when I woke up late in a deep haze and stared through the back of my fingernails trying to figure … Continue reading because I’m a 14 year old girl
ducks in a row
Some of my earliest memories are of laying on my bedroom floor or flung across my gingham bedspread weeping uncontrollably because I did not want to clean my room. It was messy. My housekeeping skills haven't improved greatly since those moments of childhood frustration and irritation. I manage to deal fairly well with the common … Continue reading ducks in a row
slice of lives…
Every once in a while I find myself getting all overly thoughtful. Philosophical. Deep (in my own bullshit). Existential if you will. This is one of those moments. One of those times that I sit back and look at something and can't help but think and wonder. Can't stop marveling about the human condition and … Continue reading slice of lives…
