Inexplicable how one minute they are tiny infants and the next they are reading and writing. And have two wiggly loose teeth. I’m not sure why the teeth have me all weepy, but they do. Such is parenthood, I guess. Always bittersweet.

Truth.

If it is sharp, I will cut myself. The other night I used the food processor and was washing it. “That blade on the disc is sharp,” I tell myself, “and I must be careful not to touch it!” And then as if my hand has a mind of its own my finger goes over [...]

(Sorry, couldn’t help myself) It is! LOOK! Either way, HE LIKES IT, and he’s not ashamed! Buster is FUN! He can be a pill, like the other morning when a huge wind came through in the night, knocked the wheelbarrow over which broke the fence, resulting in a two slat opening, JUST wide enough for [...]
Christmas Eve

Buster is staying. My sister and I talked and she loves the hell out of this dog. She loved him enough to admit: She can’t keep him safe from my sisters very aggressive and big dogs, She doesn’t have a job (not from lack of looking) so how can she pay for food and vet [...]
Counting my blessings

Brian and I are snuggling and chatting about $$ which is tight right now. It might have been stressful but then he said “It’s not bad being poor when I have you!” Which is how I feel too. Last year I got a diamond ring for Christmas. This year we are not exchanging presents, but [...]
S.O.S or Save our Sanity

We have pulled Emma out of daycare for a few weeks to save some money. It’s tight right now. Really tight. I love her, I love having her near me, but it’s tough having her at work with me. She wants to play with me and sit on my lap and I have to work, [...]
In which we pat ourselves on the back for having a great child.

Emma is brilliant. No, that’s not just me being a proud mama, she is truly brilliant. Her kindergarten teacher told me so! They’ve changed grading systems this year and while she can’t test for advanced placement in kindergarten she says Emma is more than advanced. She seemed surprised that I didn’t know. I’ve always known [...]
OMG Lindsey Lohan

I just realized that Lindsey Lohan and I are like soul sisters because we both have bat-shit crazy fathers! Of course, that’s where the resemblance ends because I’ve never done drugs or gotten a DUI etc… But dude Lindsey. I feel your pain.

The foreclosed meth house that the police officers told me had to be torn down (because of the meth lab underneath the house) now has squatters! OH! The JOY! What kind of idiots want to live in a house like that and what can we do about it? The bank so far is not doing [...]
