It’s amaz­ing what a few extra min­utes, taken for your­self will do for your mood.  Granted, this morn­ing I took those min­utes to wash my face and brush my teeth with a kiddo attatched to my leg.  My few min­utes to pick out a nicer shirt and be cat hair free was met with whines […]

Today, a year after I had the kiddo I look about like what I did when I left the hos­pi­tal.  This is damn near a daily source of drama for me.  Today, a year after the kiddo, I also came to a con­clu­sion.

Many women I know have said they’d rather […]

Today came with a rush of hor­mones.  Before I know it I’m back in the car, on the way home, balling my eyes out.   Sher­man was home when I got back…some hard­core tears and a nap later and I’m feel­ing better…for now.
I decided I should try to get out of the house for a bit.  […]
