I have been doing a lot of thinking lately about life and relationships, all kinds of relationships… family and friends. The last several years have had their ups and downs, often more downs than ups. I watched The Perks of Being a Wallflower recently and a quote from that really struck me. “We accept the love we think […]
This is what I do during the REALLY long studying sessions I have every day. I crudy. The rest of the time I cread and cratch (prounounced "crotch"!). I am the Multifaceted Mama, and a multitasking one, too!! My husband, however, refers to my hobby as "crotcheting" (promounced "crochet-et-ing"). He's hilarious. I have gotten really good […]

I hopped on to Facebook this morning, hoping for a little stress-free playing around, only to be greeted with a message from an immature idiot who apparently needs to get a life. This idiot, despite their own issues that have landed them in all kinds of legal trouble already, whether directly or indirectly involved with the […]
Wedded Bliss Selina’s wedding to her Marine, Brian, was Saturday and it was beautiful. The morning was a complete downpour, but it stopped long enough to allow them to say their vows and by the end of the reception, the sun was shining! There were a lot of old friends there so it was not […]
A whole lotta not much going on,… The downside of summer vacation is that a whole lot less is going on, which equates to me having a whole lot less to blog about! Not that the life of a Domestic Goddess is ever all that exciting, but you get the idea! The upside is that […]
