One squirt

Quick trip to the mall and stopped at the Dairy Queen to treat my son. Decided to get a hot fudge sundae. Just a small sundae, a little treat for my sore throat.
“Could you go heavy on the fudge please?” I innocently ask.
“Sorry, I can only give you one squirt unless I charge you more.”
This […]

Connect the dots

I could not sleep. I know that is not a good enough excuse, but at least is helps explain. I rolled over and the only thing visible in my nearly blind world is my husbands back. So, I do what I am sure may other woman would have done. I grabbed a pen and began […]

Mother’s Day

Becoming a Mom, the smartest thing I ever did. The most amazing thing I ever felt. A miracle from God, through me into this world. I do not know why God would choose to bless me, trust me with three of the most amazing, imaginitive, supportive, happy children, but he did. I will be forever […]

Fewer words

Many believe that fewer words indicate wisdom. It has been said that we use too many words and not enough wisdom. I struggle with the idea that words or number of words are in some way associated with wisdom. Books are knowledge, knowledge is power, I would hope that those with power are wise.
If a […]

Gift of justification

Gift of justification
Have you ever known somebody that, regardless of what they do, is able to justify their behavior? The choice they make may be wrong, they know it is wrong and still they are able to make up an excuse that explains and excuses the choice. Now do not get me wrong here, I […]

Eyebrows

Why?
Why is it that women are allowed to completely shave off their eyebrows and then draw them back on with a pencil, yet men that do the same with their chest and ass hair are considered freaks?
Ladies, puck and shape as much as you like, use an eyebrow pencil to fill in, but understand, eyebrows […]

Our Expectations

We must realize that others exist for us,
Primarily in our own minds and
What they are is
What we interpret them to be.
And in many cases,
The qualities they possess are
The qualities we give to them.
So when someone does not live up to
What we expect them to be,
We should not only question them
But also
Our Expectations.

Peanut butter

No matter how bad your day, there is nothing like being the first to open a brand new jar of peanut butter. Aaahh. Contentment

Cat owners

Planting annual flowers indoors is a task best left to individuals that are not cat owners.

Neutrogena

Did you know that Neutrogena lotion on newly cut skin burns?
Well, now you do.

Lift the lid

Always lift the lid to the toilet for vomiting sleepwalking family members. Do you seriously want a longer explanation?
I did not think so

Jiggle the handle

That is it, short and sweet, secret to a long happy life. “Try jiggling the handle”

To be 6 again……..

My youngest got a really bad haircut about 6 weeks ago. Kind of a bowl, skater type cut. Except the hairdresser thought that uneven crooked bowl was the way to go. Now, the little guy hates getting his hair cut. He wants to grow it out and give it to bald people. Sweet kid huh? […]

Happy V-day all!!

Asking for help on a forum is not as straight forward as one might expect. Beware users!! When asking for help you may be considered spam and deleted. So today I learned that I am Spam.
Larger lesson - when asking for help on most site forums, it is better to be an established member.

I do not believe that it is ever ok to make fun of other people. It is mean, makes others feel bad, and sends a huge message about your own personal integrity. It is however incredibly funny and a very large part of who I am. It is also a critical element within my marriage. […]

Do you have the time to hear my whine?

“Do you have the time to hear my whine?” Aahh yes, this is a quote from a song my eldest son heard on the radio. Is it accurate? I have no idea. Do I like it? Oohh but yes!! I wish I could give credit to the writer, but I have no idea if those […]
