*Trigger Warning: This post does present some thoughts that may be triggering for some. I can't say for sure how someone might be triggered by this blog but I suspect it would bring out defensive instincts in those who have been led to believe that they are either with us or against us and there…

Irony is a *itch
This week’s re-run marks when I began testing the waters of being myself online and on this blog. I was curious how it would be received and if I'd lose readers. But ultimately I have decided that I am sarcastic, at times inappropriate, and enjoy profanity. Why not curate a space where we can all…
Once Upon a Time
Dearest children of the 21st century, The story I am about to tell you is truly earth shattering. Have a seat. Once upon a time…there was a world. A world I like to call B.F. And in this Before Facebook world, believe it or not, we took pictures…on a camera…with a roll of film…that we couldn’t see.…
Mental Health Mondays
You know how sometimes things run their course? Like you’ve taken them as far as they can go and continuing the charade would just be redundant and oh I don’t know, embarrassing and annoying to everyone involved? Like hearing about it for the zillionth time would prompt the following Simon Cowell reaction? Well that’s how…
Untold Stories: Kids Edition
I don't talk about my kids a lot anymore. I used to when their problems were small and the solutions were simple. When the biggest struggle I had was finding the balance between their need for snuggle time and my need for down time or how to juggle their nap time with my needing to…
Pick Up Where You Throw Down

Numbers and Nomenclatures
I had a thought. In fact I have several of them and it's Thursday so let's discuss. I have actually been thinking about this for awhile. Like ever since I decided that writing was my ticket to joy. It's been an interesting ride because I haven't had much success in the way that we typically…
Write Way to Think
Y'all. I had an epiphany. There is power in writing it down. Now you may be thinking that's not an epiphany, you literally just talked about that like three posts ago. But the amazing thing about concepts and the brain is that it's always making new connections to what we already know. I guess that…
Milo Monday: Thirst Trap
Ok the jig is up. These Milo Monday posts are essentially just for me because I like googling "Jack Pearson". But also I suppose I could take this opportunity to share a smidgen of what is on my mind so okay, let's do that. This Monday is hitting different because it's the Monday of a…
