11.7.13 Today…it hurts.

I will never be able to argue that this is my favorite time of the year.  With Christmas…always comes hope…excitement…joy. And as much as I want to feel those things… this year is very different. This year… as Christmas rapidly approaches… so does what would have been our baby’s birth. I think I always thought…even […]

11.4.13 Bella’s Lullaby

Okay.  So…it’s possible that I may need an attitude adjustment. I just got mad at a guy for not being nice to me after I told him that he must have the wrong number. There was no…”Oh!  I’m sorry…or…okay, thanks…or…my bad.” Just…click. What is the world coming to if after an “I’m so sorry…you must […]

10.15.13 stacking bricks

This October 15th date is throwing me for a major loop.  I don’t quite understand time.  The way it can creep and fly…without warning. This weekend was filled with simple joys…rain boots and umbrellas, puddle jumping, slumper parties, and basketball. I haven’t been exactly myself lately.  I can’t put my finger on it…a bit more […]

10.10.13 3rd and 5th chronicled

I’ve tried to type a blog post for several days now.  Each time I would try to get to the admin page where the magic is made…it would say that it timed out and that it was unavailable.  It said to check the proxy.  What the hell fire is a proxy?  I tried to fix […]

10.1.13 Eleven years of Chase

There are times when I get a glimpse of God.  Moments…where I think I can understand his heart.  Times…when I catch a miracle, as if it were a butterfly landing for a fleeting second on my shoulder. And if truth be told…many of these moments are when I’m around at Chase. He’s special.  He’s different.  […]

9.20.13 Picture Day

Today was picture day for Colt.  Can you even imagine the OCD control freakazoid I become on picture day?  I mean… A.)  I’m not with them at school to straighten clothes, lick down hair, or wipe the last of their Capri Sun off of their mouths. B.)  I’m not taking the picture. and C.)  Well…the […]

9.18.13 Colds, Pizza and Happiness

I spent all yesterday in the lazy boy.  Chad shared his cold with me.  I’d rather him be stingy.  And now…I find myself counting down the minutes.  Waiting for the hit.  Craving it.  Needing it.  Wanting it. Damn Afrin. I have found myself addicted to Afrin on more than one occasion.  Apparently my body addicts […]

9.12.13 Catching Waves

It’s come to my attention that it takes about 2 1/2 weeks for me to transition.  This is good information to know.  I wish I had figured it out sooner. We are 2 1/2 weeks into the new school year and I have finally caught my wave.  I struggled to paddle, took in some water, […]

9.5.13 Inspiration and mosquito spray

One thing I know for sure is that life…for whatever reason…is full of curve balls. The minute you think you have a handle on it… WHAM-O. Annnnnnd… no. Like…it just can’t stand it if you think…for one second…that you’ve got your sh*# together.  The second the ole’ “WOW!  Things are going so well!” thought enters […]
