Things are really wonky in some areas of my life right now and today I am every inch a sad-a-saurus. When some­one either know­ingly, or sub­con­sciously, sets some­thing up to fail, it usu­ally does. I don’t think he knows that.
Mostly I am sad that $90 a month, to see if there is help to be had, […]

Christ­mas is 4 months from today. Holy am I behind on my shop­ping!!
Did look at Christ­mas orna­ments today. Does that count?
Okay, thought not.  First year I really have no clue what to get any­one. This could be a prob­lem. Think­ing I’ll just set it aside though and enjoy the 75 degree temps we’ve been enjoy­ing.
Four months. […]

Dang it.  Another year of my kids going to the lake cabin and I can­not go.
Pretty drive. Watch for tower to know you are near. First glimpse of town. Stop to get first gro­ceries. Wind­ing around the curve and see­ing cab­ins. Check­ing in. Voices of ghosts past in each cabin. Mov­ing stuff in. Unpack­ing. Walk down […]

Need­ing a box last week to haul stuff to the cites, I quickly dumped the “hal­loween” box and headed off.  I really need to pick up the rub­ber spi­der and rat that went fly­ing off in dif­fer­ent direc­tions so I don’t pee my pants every time I turn on the light in the old base­ment.
Who […]

If any­thing will mess up a rela­tion­ship fast it is lies.  I hate being lied to. I hate lying liars. I hate that once some­one has lied to me, I find it incred­i­bly hard to believe any­thing they tell me after that.
There is a step in one of the 12 step pro­gram that goes some­thing like […]

Was walk­ing thru the house today and the cur­tain was open by the patio doors. I could clearly see dozens of  lit­tle hand prints on the glass about a one year old tod­dler level. Then I turned around and noticed in the light tiny hand prints on the TV screen and the glass on the […]

Some­things afoot, about what I can­not say…
Some­one wasn’t work­ing, on a working day.…

Well the lit­tle munchkin is back home again and we all breathed a sigh of relief that it went so well.  The only thing I was wor­ried about was the drive to there and back…not me…the other stu­pid dri­vers on the road! Why is it that there are more crazy dri­vers on the road when […]

Have the grand baby here for a few days so will be off the grid although know­ing his techno-geek par­ents and his uncanny mechan­i­cal abil­ity at age 1, he could prob­a­bly show me a thing or two here!! Nev­er­the­less, intend to devote full and mean­ing­ful grandma time to him as he is feel­ing a bit […]

I won­der why I had the priv­i­lege this week­end to be on the receiv­ing end of a vis­it­ing “elderly” wom­ans deci­sion to share with me, some­one who is not a rel­a­tive, her “prob­lem.”  I am assum­ing it is 1) because I was here 2) I am a woman, and 3) I am a nurse. At […]
