2021-05-07 On This Day in History… 🤱
Seventeen years ago, at this very moment, I was gettin busy pushing a baby out my vagina. That’s pretty freaking amazing right? That I can grow a human being inside my body and then birth it into the world in a matter of hours. More amazing than that is the mystical act of parenting. That…

2021-03-26 The light at the end of the tunnel…
My mom is being discharged from the hospital today. Who gets to deal with getting her home, grocery shopping, fetching a walker, and staying with her at her home to make sure she’s ok and not at risk for falling down or ripping her stitches, ostomy, or drain tubes? That would be yours truly. She’s…

2021-03-14 Designated Daughter
The saying “Hurry up and wait” is often attributed to the military but I think is also quite appropriate for the hospitals and medical care.

2021-02-20 Why I’m Doubling Down Today
Yesterday, just as I was developing the inspiration to write about all the sexcapaids I’ve had in my life, life interjected and shut that down. Here’s how the conversation went (paraphrasing of course)… Life: “Here.. read this and get angry” (hands me an email). Me: 😬😬😬 (deep breath). “No! Not today life. I’m not letting…

2021-02-19 The One that Wanted to be About Sex but Couldn’t Make it Past First Base…
I looked into the salty air thinking about my irritation over an email I just read and said to myself “it’s time to get serious.” Then I looked at myself in the mirror from the treadmill and said “NO!” I actually pointed at myself as I said, “NO! NOT THIS TIME.” I’m not going to…

2021-02-10 The Mirror I’m Looking at is Also a Revolving Door
I suppose I’ve been past due for another “In the Mirror” moment. By now, with the reliable repeat, I guess it’s always just a matter of time until it happens again. I’m talking about the moment I step on my treadmill and look at myself in the mirror (figuratively and literally as the treadmill faces…
