A Tangled Yarn of Thoughts Being Unravelled…
I was and am stuck for a title for this post. That hardly ever happens. And when it does happen in other aspects of my life, it usually pertains to Red. He of the stoic countenance and endless source of hidden snark; delivered with such a matter-of-fact tone that one will rarely doubt the veracity... Continue Reading →
I didn't know how much power words have over us. How they can define us and our lives at various stages. As an expectant mother and a new one my world was mainly ruled by these words: 'heartburn', 'Braxton Hicks', insomnia', 'burps', 'poops', 'nasal aspirators', 'diaper genie', 'Feberizing', 'self-soothing', 'toilet training', 'weaning' and the legion...

But... Continue Reading →

My child is neurodivergent. But that's not all that he's about. He's an eye-rolling, shaggy-haired teen. He was the most beeyootiful baby in the whole... Continue Reading →
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 →
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 home aka the place where t.v remotes go to die. They seem to plummet from a high place with unfailing regularity and sadly there's no safety net in sight...sigh. Is there also a subsription model for buying t.v remotes? I guess am averaging a few one every quarter!
