Getting to and into bed turns into an obstacle course full of adventure in the dark! So what else is new?
Oh The Bleeding Hearts…
Various dictionaries define the term "bleeding hearts" in almost the same terms but I like the Merriam Websters version the best viz: a person who shows extravagant sympathy especially for an object of alleged persecution. I have NO clue how Sea World functions. I'm not meant to. I'm meant to go there, buy overpriced tickets, even... Continue Reading →
The Laundry Bugbear
I can totally understand why certain people cross over to the dark side and embrace OCD. Well, given that we're talking of OCD am guessing the embracing is a compelling act, 'cuse the pun, por favor. So laundry...yeah. It's a necessary evil if you want to wear clean clothes and in case you don't have... Continue Reading →

Then comes the incessant babbling about going to the airport through... Continue Reading →
Bloglet: Repartee
I am currently in what I imagine is a near-Cinderella stage. Drippy nose, swollen face and mopping up the red blood (poster color) that MLM generously painted on his T-Rex's teeth and pretty much all over on an off-white tiled floor. I fall back on the worst threat in my arsenal aka am going away... Continue Reading →
A Bloglet on Introspection

Cough. Sniffle. Sneeze.
A kid gets a cold and a mother's world spins out of whack!
