I kind of wonder if I hit the wrong tone with last night’s post. Yes, it drives me crazy to be treated like I’m an imbecile when it comes to social interaction (and despite a degree in psychology, the only thing I can figure is that I’m still considered the ‘baby’ even though I’ve been … [Read more…]
After visiting with family a few times recently, I’ve come to discover something. Somehow it’s new every year, but… I’m just NOT like the rest of my family… or my husband’s. Just not. While tackling the mountain of dirty dishes that has accumulated over the last couple of days of good home cooking (and family … [Read more…]
I hear that a lot. Mean mommy. I insist she at least eats one cooked carrot with her dinner. Mean mommy. I insist she eats her dinner before getting anything else. Mean.

I was chatting with a blog friend on facebook today and it brought to mind an interview I did with a person named Sam. Sam wore a baggy tshirt and jeans (and was a student so was forgiven for this). Sam had a short spiky styled haircut. No obvious chest. and was thin as a … Accutane prices
Have you ever had one of those dreams, where you just think, what.the.hell? Yeah, me too. I even share some common ‘dream themes’ with a friend of mine. Crazy how much our brains are alike, when we’re asleep. Some dreams are worse than others, but they are nearly always in color. Once I dreamed about … [Read more…]
