Life, Laughter, Love...and Shiny Objects
You guys. When you write and publish stories every day on your blog for thirty straight days for NaBloPoMo (National Blog Posting Month), you’re going to have some days where you post non-sensical, shallow, silly stuff. Stuff that is really quite…well…boring and uninteresting. You know – for your own sanity. I just can’t dig deep […]
Sooooooo…it’s a good thing I’m seeing my therapist later today because Oh Em Geeeeee. I just picked up my son from school for a doctor appointment and had to go find him in the lunch room. A middle school lunch room. And just like that, I stood there in the entrance of the lunch room, […]
It was just another regular Saturday around here…or not. Because when was the last time YOUR mom challenged you to an arm wrestling match? No? Not recently? Just me, then? Yes. It’s true. Today, I arm wrestled my mother. We were out at a family breakfast at one of our favorite places and she challenged […]
Here we go…day 28 of National Blog Post Month (NaBloPoMo). Are we there yet? It’s kind of what it feels like. Writing is hard work. Period. But writing publish worthy work EVERY DAY, even harder.

You guys. This gym I go to, it’s SERIOUS BUSINESS. I mean…it is HARD CORE. Planks and push ups, wall sits and box jumps. TRX bands and battle ropes. Mountain Climbers and Burpees. Jumping jacks and boxing. There is absolutely NO SCREWING AROUND. Well. That’s mostly true. Most of the time. Here’s the thing, we […]
Have you heard that phrase before? “No is a complete sentence.” Holy crap. This is revolutionary. Seriously. Try it. No. See? One word. One complete sentence. No. No. No. No. And it works? Yes, it works. Here’s the thing, as I get older, it becomes more clear to me, I need to live my life […]
You GUYSSSSSS! Tonight is the Garth Brooks concert! I’ve never seen him perform live and have wanted to since college. I’m so excited! Except for this. The concert is at 10:30pm. Yes. 10:30PM (yawn). I’m old, how will I ever stay awake for the start of this (rest assured once he’s on stage, I won’t […]
You guys. This is really getting ridiculous. The viscousness must stop. We need to seriously rethink this holiday and what we do to the selfless, innocent victims. The pumpkins. The poor pumpkins. We separate them from their families, name them Jack, carve them, mercilessly scoop out their guts and cook them…and then…WE LIGHT THEIR INSIDES ON […]
