I descend into wishful thinking and into the world of fantasy in order to get a handle on being a parent.

The Shackles of Empowerment
After publishing my post last evening, I was thinking about how things are in the world around me these days and I can't help but think of women and how some lives are changing every day and others might be stuck in a different era for all the changes they have been exposed to.

A Few Words From A SAHM
I am a SAHM. I like writing the abbreviation rather than typing out the whole shebang viz Stay At Home Mom. And I think quite a bit of time and effort is being spent on Mira Rajput and her choice of words regarding her own daughter. I suppose if I wanted to, I could extrapolate, that... Continue Reading →

Most of it was bulgy or chunky in places it shouldn't have been but I did not become acquainted with my scapula, soleus, trapezius as much as I thought I would have earlier. They were names in an anatomy book but barring... Continue Reading →
Many kids sleep clutching a teddy bear, plush toys and even a blankie. Mine sleeps with dinosaur figurines under his pillow and a wooden alligator/croc in his arms. God I love that kid when he's sleeping! That's how we roll!
