The Dafuq Bloglet

Last night I'd asked TO to do one of his usual chores and he did; while holding firmly onto the tv remote. And I, being a person to *never* let a snarky quip pass me by, told him that once he grew up and if he had kids, would have to eventually put the remote... Continue Reading →

It’s a universal truth

the moment an adult goes to the loo, a child will need them for something. That something will be critical to the child for sure but not register at all on the adult scale for important things. My niece is spending a few hours with me and after Hangmaning, drawing and doing all the things... Continue Reading →

Owning Your Solitude

The word solitude often conjures up images and notions of being lonely and morose but that's far from the truth. The word is derived from the Latin word 'solus' meaning alone but as many of us have discovered, alone does not necessarily equal being lonely. Our lives, even the ones orchestrated and managed by us,... 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 →

TO is still very light on his feet and can creep up almost noiselessly (unless he's... Continue Reading →

Hug It Out

Am not the nicest mother- it has to be said. More like the willling bad-cop who thinks that telling it like it is never hurt anyone. I wonder where I get it from (looks askance at my parents' room) but it is what is is. My parents continue to be the extremely loving and demonstrative... Continue Reading →

Dafuq Bloglet#3

Red took us all out to play pickleball last evening and as always kept coaxing me to play something rather than have my nose buried in a book or my Kindle. And I, as always, was lethal on the court. Mercilessly swinging the racket like it was a sword and the ball like an enemy... Continue Reading →

Movie Review: Meg 2- The Trench

I kept thinking of scathing ways to start off this review when all that comes to mind is, "Don't watch it". This movie was made for reasons only to known to the producer; actually scratch that, the previous one made money at the box office ergo a sequel had to be made. I love creature...
