2020-05-22 How does one protect those they love from a broken heart?…
On this day 27 years ago, I got married. That lasted 17 years. And in case your curious, nobody gives out prizes for that. I didn’t get a gold star when I was married 10 years and yeah, the marriage was a big party after which there were a few pats on the back, hugs…

2020-05-21 Mother / Daughter Stuff
I’ve got some venting to do but I can predict the future so I’m not going there today. If you live long enough, you too will be able to predict the future. The disclaimer on that is that it all comes from experience. Ride that record right round enough times and there’s no question what…

2020-05-19 Today Miss SugarCookie asks, “What does the Universe Want?” 🤔
Last week was ballz-out crazy and I have high hopes that this week is going to slow down. Is it too high or wishful to believe that it can actually slow down sometime? What I need, is like a week without obligations or responsibilities. What’s that called again? Oh yeah, a vacation. I’m missing my…

2020-05-14 Revealing My Drinking Age
Yesterday was the first day in a while I felt like I had a handle on life. Round 2 cutting my daughters hair went well (first try the prior day ended porky). Five of my son’s missing geometry assignments have now now been verified as complete and we’re on track for catching up this week.…

2020-05-13 No Rest For the Wicked Part 336
Why 336? Because it feels like It might just go on and on and on and one can’t escape being wicked if it’s a part of their nature. Riddle me this? Why do I have to spend 40 grand on a masters in fine arts which includes thousands (not exaggerating) of dollars for fees for…

2020-05-12 No Rest for the Wicked Part 2
Yesterday came and went and it was a freaking blur. The deadline at work was met and the team pulled it off. Alpha version 0.0.1 was demonstrated and released to the customer. If that name doesn’t scream “early, early release” then I don’t know what does. In the end, I was left to sweep up…

2020-05-07 Cheers to 16 Years!… 💚💙💚
Today I slept through Jim’s alarm and didn’t wake up till 7:15 and was groggy. Strange to wake up alone and miss making breakfast and seeing him off to work. Strange to wake up alone In the house as no kids are here either. Strange to shuffle around In silence, asking Alexa the news while…

2020-05-01 This Day Calls for Big Hugs
Today is the last day of High School for my darling pudding pie. It’s easy to be in denial when nothing is happening as planned. We haven’t even sent out graduation announcements yet. The box was shoved up onto the top shelf in a cupboard in the kitchen and we basically forgot about it. Oops.…
