I’m going to say it, and I wonder who will hate me for it and then not finish reading this. ALL LIVES MATTER! I say it, but I don’t mean in it as part of any political movement. I mean it as a statement of fact. All lives matter. BLM is a good cause but, […]

A Shiny New Day
Well, it seems to me multiple changes are coming my way. My 1st grader is starting school via remote learning (on purpose this time), we will be getting a new puppy (details to be released as I get them), the seasons are shifting, and the holidays are coming (plus four birthdays). I’m going to be […]

I May Drown…
You know what? I was going to write this long blog about the safety of reopening schools and how I plan to structure and deal with my 1st grader with behavior issues. I have been working on that post since about 7 AM. Screw it. Instead, its not even 10:30 AM, I’ve made breakfast, drank […]

A Mom’s Day Off
I was able to experience a rare thing today. I enjoyed a day off from “work.” If you have read my previous posts you would know I am currently a stay-at-home mom. A day off for me is any day where I get to spend several consecutive hours at a place where no one calls […]
