Say It Enough, You'll Start to Believe It

I’ve told you before…I’m a cryer. Crier? Yes…I think it’s crier. I cry a lot. I cry easily, I cry loudly, I cry ugly. And if I try not to cry, I eventually burst like a dam spilling my ugly all over whoever is closest to me. Sometimes I laugh to cover the cry, which […]

It’s high time I recorded another installment of Kids Say the Darndest Things because my kids have ripped out some doozies lately. Parenting is seriously entertaining…you know, when it’s not stressful. Me: “Hey Sloan, can I throw away this ribbon?” I hold up his Dare to Stay Off Drugs ribbon from the D.A.R.E. program at […]

First of all, I am very pleased with the way that elections turned out last night. There were a couple of issues that disappointed me and the fact that Harry Reid is still in office annoys me to no end, but more than anything I’m glad that there is a better balance of power in […]

There were six ribbons. Each was a different length, a different size and all were quite unique. The Ribbon Maker looked at His ribbons and decided that they would be better if woven together so He carefully and skillfully began braiding them. One over another with careful precision He wound the ribbons until they were […]
[Continue reading...]I’m carrying a little extra baggage today. It has settled in a most unattractive place. It’s not flattering. I don’t like it. It’s under my eyes. I haven’t been sleeping well lately. It is likely due to the fact that I have so much going on it is hard for my brain to unwind and […]
[Continue reading...]Saturday night found Lee and I in the minivan, kids in tow, heading out to the mattress store to purchase two new mattresses. Never mind that the kids desperately needed them. Never mind that Tia’s mattress was so cheap that is was literally falling apart and becoming a potential hazard. Never mind that both mattresses had […]
