There’s another person taking over my body these days. And his name is Dad. Today was pretty nice, so George was outside playing with the 3-year-old twins from next door, Cira and Christian. Cira and Christian are, for lack of a better way of saying it, monsters. Now, I don’t know if they are just [...]

Today, I’m just not right
I’m off today. Not off like, not working. Off like, I’m just not right. I did my usual morning hub bub. I straightened up, made breakfast, put some clothes on myself and the boys, got Hank off to school. I went upstairs and made the beds. I drank my two cups and coffee and decided [...]

There it goes…
A brutal truth slapped me in the face this morning when I stepped outside to check the weather: It’s just not summer anymore. I know very few people who view the brutal, sweltering heat of summer the way I do — I LOVE it. Love it love it love it love it love it. Nothing [...]

Open question to men
Seriously… why do you love your junk so much? George is 3 years and 5 months old. At this age, Hank was fully potty trained, always in underpants, MAYBE he’d wear a pull up at night, but it would be dry in the morning. Hell, we got married two days after Hank’s 3rd birthday, and [...]

Music review I am in no way qualified to make – Lady Gaga
I have a new obsession. And her name is Lady Gaga. Well hello there miss. Nice to see you and you fun wig and your wild and crazy face painting thingy. Honestly, I had no idea who this woman was or what she did, other than she was some sort of “entertainer” who is often [...]

Watch your mouth
You would think I would learn that there is such a thing as inappropriate language around children. I mean, I have two kids. And they are boys. If anyone is going to pick up a bad habit, it is the male of the species (and you know I am right). It’s not as if my [...]

The wall art
Remember a few days ago, when I put up pictures of George decorating my walls with his nicely sharpened pencil? Remember, how it was so sweet and enduring. That I was holding on to it as tightly as possible, because my baby won’t be a baby for long, and it’s these little moments that make [...]

Fun for all ages
I’ve been feeling my age lately. Which is not to say that I feel old. But aside from the arthritis and the grey hair and the need for anti-wrinkle night cream, I still feel fairly young. Probably because I am. Yet still, I feel myself getting older. I have reached a point where I can [...]

Seriously, GleN Beck? Really?
I hate to beat a dead horse, but GleN Beck continues to fall slowly and surely into a downward spiral of irresponsible journalism and out-and-out ass wild crazy. This man is an embarrassment to my profession. GleN said today, Sept. 18, that his go-to fact checker is… Google. In addition to saying he checks his [...]

GleN Beck has lost his diddy mind
I’d like to start by saying that I don’t like the way Glenn Beck spells his name. I realize he did not choose the name. But for reasons I cannot fully understand myself, I am opposed to the second, unnecessary consonant. It’s probably only because I don’t like him, and not an actual aversion to the [...]
