My Life Right Now
Totally Lost In Translation
The family was playing Pictionary before dinner last night. TO decided to choose the Super Hard mode for generating the challenges. I mention this beforehand so there will be moderately less judging about why I gave the answer I did. TO was furiously drawing scenes of battle etc on the board and I in my... Continue Reading →
Parenting Dichotomies
Someone once told me that there's often sarcasm in my blog posts. It's disguised as tongue-in-cheek humor directed at my child. And my response to that is a resounding," You bet!". Parenting is hard enough. Blowing off steam in healthy ways makes blogging fairly benign in the scope of things. Apparently wishing to dump your... Continue Reading →
Diary Of A Teenager’s Mother
My kid's teenage years are kicking my heiney!* I was smarter as a teen than I am as a middle-aged mother of one. Primarily because I kept the eye rolling to a minimum and the simian grunts to a fairly non-existent level. I had to since my mother was handy with her spatulas and my... Continue Reading →

My niece is spending a few hours with me and after Hangmaning, drawing and doing all the things... Continue Reading →
Movie Review: Aquaman 2- The Lost Kingdom
If I was being pithy, I'd say that the Lost Kingdom should've stayed lost! Jason Momoa becomes terribly typecast with his tattoos, wild hair and overall untamed look but there's a shift from the Arthur Curry he played in the first standalone Aquaman movie to this one. He's indolent, his acting is subpar and he's just... Continue Reading →
Kids Say#1
I was looking at a picture of a tardigrade because ever since the Octonauts educated TO about them, he returned the favor by educating me and I have never got over how tiny and cute the "water bears" are. TO is still very light on his feet and can creep up almost noiselessly (unless he's... Continue Reading →
