• The man who helped kill Steve – Returns.

  February 17, 2021

  My youngest is officially 17. How insane is that. The time has went way too fast. If I read back to 2004 when I started this I was so tired, struggling to badly and older kids seemed a million years away. Yet, here we are - Less than a year and he’ll be 18. I’ll…

• Cleaning & Valentines Day

  February 13, 2021

  Cleaning. Cleaning helps my anxiety and helps me feel like I’m regaining some form of control in this world. Thus, I cleaned like an insane person for a good chunk of the day. Just the downstairs room my daughter has been staying in. Taking out my grandsons things to wash so he can use them.…

• Ready for this to end….

  February 11, 2021

  The same complaint as every other day. This adult child makes me insane. Absolutely, positively insane. Like REALLY insane. How can one person be so lazy? Tonight in nicely tell her if she isn’t getting any hours she needs to find a second job. That’s all there is to it. No. No. No. She isn’t&hel...

• It’s the Arctic Outside

  February 8, 2021

  It’s freezing out. Seriously. Freezing. At 10 p.m. it has already dropped to -18F. It’s easy to stay home when the air hurts my face to even take out the garbage. I think I’ll just enjoy this requirement of working remotely and not leave indefinitely. Tuesday night is a choir concert my kid just ...

• Dark stretch of road

  February 6, 2021

  I overthink. A lot. Endless hours with myself and my mind. I can’t say it’s a good place to be. Honestly, it’s often a sad, depressing area. Judging, questioning myself. I question myself enough I sure don’t need anyone else’s input into it. There’s a simple stretch of interstate that runs throug...

• Staying Busy

  January 30, 2021

  Work has been insane lately. My client list is soaring. In a county I normally have few clients I have 9 new ones all at once. 9 doesn’t sound like much. Yet, it’s huge when it’s out of the norm. Why? Why are there SO many there suddenly? I’ve been asking at enrollment - Why?…

• Self Care & Endless Hot Water

  January 24, 2021

  I have time tonight. So where to begin? My husband had the brilliant idea to get an endless hot water heater or hot water on demand. Whatever you call it. I was less than impressed at the moment as you could limp ours along awhile longer AND I’m cheap. However, now the idea is brilliant…

• Another Day

  January 11, 2021

  The world hasn’t ended yet. My husband is living in this world of conspiracy theories. He’s failed to notice the media’s goal is scare us. Both sides are officially insane. That’s about all I have to say. The radicals in each end suck. The nation sucks. Everyone sucks. (I sound really intellectua...

• New Year, Same Life

  January 1, 2021

  It’s a new year and guess what - Just as I expected it’s all the same as last year. Imagine that. I’m really struggling to understand why people are so excited to bring in the New Year just because it’s literally another day. The world doesn’t change because the date changed. Nobody sticks to the...
