Dear Miley, Avril, Abercrombie and/or Fitch, and the late Mr. Levi Strauss,
I call on you people because you are who dresses the Generation known as Y. I have a question for you and other clothes makers of today: Why do you make your clothes so our children’s/… Read full post »
I’m not a pretty cook so this will have no pictures. Get over it. My kitchen isn’t pretty either and neither are my plates so you’ll just have to use your imagination. Can you handle it? I think you can.
I’d like to give you my husband’s se… Read full post »
My life as a sitcom
I watched entirely too much TV as a kid. I sat in front of that big glowing box for hours on end just to escape the reality of life that was going on around me in my family. By watching TV I was ensuring that I wasn’t going to fight with… Read full post »
The Debate Between Life and Death
My husband’s 92-year-old grandmother had a stroke last night and now there’s a debate amongst the family on whether or not to keep her alive. Ida, the grandmother, is paralyzed completely on her left side and has lost her ability to swallow. She has also failed to regain consc… Read full post »
The Stupid Things We Do
I’m guilty of having brain farts all the time. If I can’t remember a word or a title to a book I’ll run through the alphabet until one of the letters jogs my memory into realizing whatever I’m trying to think of starts with the letter Q, or something. There was… Read full post »
Beezid: the claw machine of the Internet
In years gone by, my husband has been the biggest football fan. It didn’t matter what team was playing, if there was a game on he was going to watch it. He doesn’t support one team in particular, just football in general. He would try to get me to bet little… Read full post »
That’s it, I’ve had it with you. You won’t be part of this family for the rest of the night.” That’s what my husband said last night. You’re wondering how he could be so cruel, so against all of the proper parenting books, right? How could h… Read full post »
Help! My daughter is turning into a baby Sean Hannity!
There are few things in this world that I don’t force on my children. I don’t make them eat cooked cabbage and I don’t force my political views on them. I want them to form their own opinions of what they think is right or wrong. My daughter, however, seems to… Read full post »
My husband I think must have a lot of free time on his hands at work these days. I’m all for free time at work. I think that should be scheduled into everyone’s days because free time is what helps make the world go a little bit faster when you’re someplace… Read full post »
There have been very few times in my life where I feel like I’ve made an actual connection with people, or have wanted to for that matter. There has never been a time when I wanted to do something so badly for someone else. This past weekend we had a sleepover… Read full post »
For the love of a brother
For almost three years of my life I was the baby of the family. I was my dad’s football watching buddy and he called me his Ivory Girl. I thought I was his favorite. Shortly before my third birthday I noticed that my mom’s lap was getting smaller and smal/

How to get a pussy to really want you
I once had a sweet little cat named Lucy. When I say "cat" I really mean cat. Lucy was black and rescued from a shelter. For the first few days she hid under my daughter’s dresser not wanting to come out. Actually, I didn’t know where she went but figured sinc… Read full post »
I’ve taken to wearing two watches lately. It’s not that I’m tracking the time on the East Coast while I’m stuck here in the Central Time Zone of the Deep South. I found the watch that my husband gave me for our first anniversary. I found it in some boxes that… Read full post »
My stepdaughter is learning how to type. I’m so proud. She’s growing up into a fine young woman and typing, in my opinion, is one of the more important skills to be learned, especially in this day and age. When she came home the other day and said she had typing… Read full post »
For the past several months I’ve been researching cell phones. You see I’ve got an upgrade burning a hole in my pocket. I don’t know why I obsess over things like this but right now I feel like a big kid waiting for Christmas morning. You could ask me anything abou… Read full post »
Certain smells bring me back to places in my childhood that I love to think about. The scent of Scotch tape brings me back to every birthday I ever had growing up. Since my birthday is in the spring it’s like all smells were dormant in the winter and started to… Read full post »
Liar Liar Pants on Fire
I just read my stepson’s science fair report. He’s been talking about this report for weeks and all of the research that he (read: his mom) has done. His topic is about the effect lying has on the human body. I’m sure that he didn’t pick this topic himself si… Read full post »
Going to my grandmother’s house when I was a child was always such a special treat. We lived two hours away from most of our relatives which meant that we only got to see our favorite cousins two or three times a year. Usually we paired off with the cousin that… Read full post »
Faking my own Fall
I just turned down the air conditioning to frigid and lit a mulled cider candle. I had to. I’m missing fall so badly that I could just burst. It’s been in the high eighties down here for the past several weeks, which is a relief from the mid-nineties that we were… Read full post »
Note to self: Stop your bellyaching
It’s time for me to grow up and take charge of my life. I’m done crying each day before I have to go to work because I hate it so much. That’s not fair to my family to have to witness such a basket case so often. It’s not fair to… Read full post »
Isn’t the earth called Mother Earth for a reason? She’s supposed to provide for us like mothers do. Yeah, I know she’s given us invaluable resources like oil and apples, but when I really need her it seems like she turns her back on me. Where is this Mother Earth w… Read full post »
I know this guy who I’ll just call Joe. Joe is a caring, intelligent and thoughtful person. He would give you the shirt off his back. I’ve seen him do that. Joe is a lover of people, which is something that isn’t often found these days. He seems to be o… Read full post »
I think just about everyone out there has some sort of haunted experience that they like to believe is true. Like, when I was about eight years old and was spending the night at our summer cottage, for some reason I had to, just had to peek out the window in… Read full post »
Do you want to hear a really great pick up line? “So, are your nipples the same color as your lips?” That would be really great if it were between two people who were both mutually into each other and have been dating and are looking to go a bit further… Read full post »
