I keep getting locked out of my blog! I have no idea how, and it took me two weeks this time to get back in. But I finally (obviously) did. It is the beginning of June. Already. Where did the rest of the year go? To fast. I feel like I am not getting anything…

So, it is after midnight here, which means I am officially 60 years old. I don’t feel like I am 60, mostly. My brain is pretty sure I am 30, but my body feels significantly older. But right now, I am thinking about my mom. It has been happening a lot lately. After my first…

It is almost the end of October already. I can’t say that I will be sorry to leave this year behind us soon, but I can’t say that just changing the year on the calendar will make a difference. What a year it has been! Cancer diagnosis. Cruise! Cancer surgery. Car accident. Daughter and co.…

So, Friday the 16th of May, I had finally found the sideboard/buffet I wanted to replace the island in my kitchen that I frankly HATE. I had found one at our local Restore store. My elder son and I had found it a few days before, did the measuring thing, and then I had to…

So, my doctor told me that the test came back ‘good’. What does that mean exactly? Well, despite the fact that I had 38% of my uterus showing signs of cancer (which I am told is better than 50%, which is where I roll my eyes and think really?) there was no sign that it…

Just a couple of secrets I have held on to for a long time and how I feel about them, I guess. When I was pregnant with my eldest, the daughter, she was way late. I mean three weeks late. I know that my math is correct on that, mainly because I thought she was…

Realized that I had not written in a while. I have been taking a computer break since I ended my last class. Basically, through a serious of ridiculous events, I had two days to write my final a week before it was technically due. Thank goddess I managed it! I decided to take a breather,…

Well, not actually a return to me- us. He was required to live in the county he was convicted in. Not the county he had been incarcerated in, which I thought was kind of weird, but then again he had spent years in three different prisons in the state. Either way, he was 300 miles…

So nothing much going on. Sarcasm: my family’s first and preferred language. Managed to finish the semester with straight A’s. What can I say? School has always been easy for me. Moved back in with my parents. Like I had a choice and to be honest, with two special needs kids and a baby due,…
Shhh.... I have a secret
