Sometimes, I just want to hide. There are days when I just want to run away and hide some place where no one knows me, no one is demanding anything of me, no one is there to take advantage of me, no one is there to hurt me. I am so tired of being pulled […]
Holy Shiznit, Batman! That was all I had last evening when Ty threw the temper fit to end all temper fits. He may pop some attitude now and then, but temper fits aren’t usually his style. He apparently made an exception and, had I not been so thoroughly embarrassed and ticked off, I would have […]
What the HELL?! It is a damn good thing that I am somewhat level-headed. Not only is it good for a group of junior high boys, but it is good for me, too. Why? Because orange prison jumpsuits look AWFUL on me! Oh, you mean, why is it good for them? Because they could have […]
I anti-♥ thieves! Nothing pisses me off more than someone with no integrity or honor. Donovan and I both play World of Warcraft, and he recently started a guild. He funded it and set it all up and had a great set of people to start with,… for the most part. When he set it up, […]
Sleep, blissful sleep! The kids had a four-day weekend, thanks to an unused snow day on Friday and Memorial Day yesterday, which translates to the Domestic Goddess NOT having to get up at the butt crack of dawn for two extra days! I actually slept in past 0800 and got more than 3 or 4 […]
I know that everyone always says “Happy Memorial Day” today, but it always seems kind of wrong to use happy in a day honoring those who fell for our freedom. Yes, they died in honor and we all should be proud and happy for their service, but “happy” just doesn’t seem like the right word […]
If there was ever a need for coffee,… It would be this morning! My friend and neighbor Crystal got a new job and is going to be working night shifts so they have her beginning training at the god-awful hour of 0500. Normally her husband doesn’t leave for post until about 0545 but this morning […]
Sometimes I just don’t get the things people bitch about. This morning was a perfect example of it. My next door neighbor has a new job and she had to be at work at the butt crack of dawn for training. So she asked me if I could watch her youngest from the time her […]
There are days,… When I just wonder if I am going to make it through Donovan’s teen years, much less those of the three still to hit them. There are times when I am so frustrated that I just want to scream, lose my mind, and bang my head against a wall,… not necessarily in […]
Congrats to Donovan! We got some fabulous news in the mail Friday night! Donovan got into The Clarkson School! Yipee! So we all immediately got in the car and headed to Potsdam for a celebration dinner at Cactus Grill with my dad, stepmom, and stepsister Kristin! Out of the number of people who apply, only a […]
