Miss SugarCookie

Hey there!

This stream of consciousness is intended to be an unfiltered account of my journey to fight my way to a healthier, happier life. One day at a time, one step at a time, one organically-grown-emotionally-raw blog post at a time…

  • 2018-12-04 The Terrible Twos Days

    It’s been a really long tine since I’m had a child that was two and suffered from terrible twos tantrums. For one thing, I sort of recall that three years old was worse and for another thing, my darling daughter is 16 and still suffers from emotional outbursts. Now, however, they are hormonally driven and…

  • 2018-12-03 History – Helpful or Useless.. You Decide

    Monday fun fact.. My daughter does not know who George W is besides “that guy who was a president once”, but she’s confident that he’s not as significant a man as Stan Lee who “United the Universe through comics”. Ha! 😂 Me – “The whole universe? Isn’t that probably overstating things a bit?” Her –…

  • 2018-12-02 Super Snowy Sunday Status

    We woke up (in our new house) to a serious winter wonderland outside. The trees and bushes were all covered in snow and it was a great morning to take things nice and slow – including getting out of bed. I let the kids sleep in too, in their new rooms. Last time we all…

  • 2018-12-01 Well Hello There

    Hi December, my name is Miss. SugarCookie and you may not know it yet but we were totally meant for each other. I mean, one could guess since you seem to be all about gingerbread men and ginger snaps and gingerbread houses! Why not pair up with a ginger SugarCookie? Today I crossed all the…

  • 2018-11-29 Aaaaand That’s a Wrap…

    Last night I finished polishing all the documents required for my MFA final that is due this week. I haven’t yet got feedback from my mentor on my 4th packet, but that’s not really a requirement. That’s one more thing checked off my list for November and I feel great about it. ✅😊❤️ I’m a…

  • 2018-11-28 These Are Strange Times

    Here I sit in a random dentist office in the middle of the Universe. It might not be accurate to say Earth is in the middle of the Universe, but I suppose any planet that is not at the edge of the Universe is technically in the middle. Maybe not the center, but who knows,…

  • 2018-11-26 A Day for Daydreams

    I’ve been on the elliptical machine for 48 minutes now just thinking. I’m trying to come up with something to write about, but I got nothin’. Nothing solid anyway. Most of it is wandering thoughts about decorating and packing and work and moving and school. Lots of daydreams and nothing very specific worth writing about.…

  • 2018-11-25 Spin that Sunday Status DJ

    It’s been such a strange long holiday weekend that today hardly feels like a Sunday. Alas it is yet, it will continue to not feel like Sunday since I have to work on multiple projects including preparing for another release of software tomorrow. I also have the house decorating party with the kids today and…

  • 2018-11-24 Twenty Minutes to Midnight

    I can’t believe I used to only write in the evenings. I can’t believe that I used to sit in my bed and write on my laptop. Nowadays, it is second nature for me to wake up and hit the gym and start thinking and writing right away. In fact, I started/wrote over half of…

    2018-11-23 Nobody Puts Baby in a Corner

    Last night I had some time to work on my next essay for school and my topic was “Thinking Like an Artist”. Hmmmm 🤔.. that sounds familiar. 😉 I basically expanded on my last post which was all about how our brains are trained to think a certain way as we go through school and…

  • 2018-11-21 The Art of Thinking Differently

    In residency last sumner for my MFA program I attended a lecture where the faculty talked about being an artist and experiencing the world differently. I think she alluded to “seeing”, but I think it applies to all the senses. If you can see the world differently, then you can most certainly hear the world…

  • 2018-11-17 Hey Mr. DJ – What’s Up?

    This morning I woke up around 6 and that would normally be fine, but I didn’t go to bed until close to midnight. That equates to less than 6 hours of good sleep. I was doing great for the week and then, WHAM, it all went down the drain because of one night. In any…
