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…
I am a child of two worlds…
For example? Yesterday when we left for the coast I left my laptop at home. I'm on vacation you see and want to be free of the restraints of my laptop so I can go to bed early and sleep in late and enjoy my day to the fullest. Having my laptop here? So would … Continue reading I am a child of two worlds…
because that? was the dumbest post ever…
I was writing this post up about how I wasn't lying at the end of the last post. That we really are going on vacation. I was telling you that it wasn't a big fancy extravagant vacation. Not a long vacation. Just a simple short little get away to get our heads out of the … Continue reading because that? was the dumbest post ever…
because I’m the very picture of grace…
I'm what some might consider accident prone. I manage to hurt myself in the most ridiculously mundane situations. Like a week or two ago when I was walking down the street in sensible shoes on my way to get K from music camp and I slipped on maybe nothing, maybe a patch of leaves, maybe … Continue reading because I’m the very picture of grace…
laundry, you dirty devil, we meet again…
I hate doing the laundry. If there was one task I would hire someone to come into my home to do it would be the laundry. They'd find the perfect place for my hamper, pick the towels up off the floor and out of the tub, pick the clothing I drop on the floor next … Continue reading laundry, you dirty devil, we meet again…
truly disturbing news flash…
Summer vacation is almost over. Almost over. I'm not sure what to do with that information. I've just adjusted to the ebb and flow of summer vacation days. We're just getting around to a little mini trip. I don't want my summer vacation to be over... but all signs point to the impeding annihilation of … Continue reading truly disturbing news flash…
