I know, Mother's Day isn't for another month but I have an urge to post about this now so...deal with it. =P There are a few Mothers in my sphere of influence (friends and such) who have stepped up to the plate of Motherhood extraordinaire. A FORMER STEPMOTHER who fights for the rights of a … Continue reading Mother Appreciation Day

Whatever I feel the need to get off my chest.
I Delete You!
So, I had a thought the other day. Yes I know, buckle up. I am rather new to blogging and I follow a few people but tend to be rather picky on who I click "Follow" on. One of the things I noticed on the control panel is that I can't find anywhere that lists … Continue reading I Delete You!
Directness to a Fault
I can't think of a time in my life where I wasn't as direct as possible in communicating. Often, there is praise for it and people seem to appreciate it even though sometimes it's dripping with sarcasm =P it just sneaks out. Sometimes, I'll fully admit, my ability to communicate my thoughts hits a wall … Continue reading Directness to a Fault
Us…Together…Happy
Why do I sometimes feel the need to dwell on things in the past? To continue to learn from them perhaps? To appreciate where it has brought me? Tonight I am back in 2011 before marriage and when my husband (then boyfriend) and I decided to separate. For some reason I'm dwelling there, on the … Continue reading Us…Together…Happy

Then looked at … Continue reading Thank You Officer, Yes I’ll Slow Down

The Guilt Trip Lunch
A follow up to The Guilt Trip Fail. So, lunch with "Aunt Pat" went better then I feared it might. She didn't lay the guilt on about me not contacting her more. I was a little irritated about a few things - she didn't like my hair and said so, was surprised when I walked … Continue reading The Guilt Trip Lunch
The Guilt Trip Fail
Growing up I knew I had Godparents only because once a year I was told to sign a card my Mother put in front of me wishing them a Merry Christmas. Otherwise, I knew no contact by them until a very surprising gift showed up for me on my graduation from High School, a set … Continue reading The Guilt Trip Fail
Jesus on Facebook
I totally get wanting to praise Jesus as a Christian's faith says to and all of that but recently it seems like a lot of the Jesus meme's on Facebook read like a whine to me. Is it the voice I use in my head when I read this or is it really put together … Continue reading Jesus on Facebook
A first..
Today I will bake a lasagna for a Navy family who recently lost their mother/wife. She just stopped, no illness or pre-existing issue known, just stopped. My husband's squadron has kindly scheduled someone to provide a meal for them through this weekend and we offered to do it for Sunday night dinner. I feel just … Continue reading A first..
