The Hanging On Mom Experience

My mind is constantly trying to work out the algorithm; When will the babies be old enough to do that? How old will I be? How old will everyone else be then? Will we have the time and ability to do the things we want? I don’t know, but today was beautiful so I will…

In life I am constantly looking for balance. I am always redirecting towards the middle path because I am always finding myself pulled to the extremes. I can be an extremely passionate or stubborn person depending who is doing the framing. I find little pleasure in the meh of life. That doesn’t mean I don’t…

My obsession with Kesha has been long lasting. She has numerous songs about allowing people to say whatever they are going to. She really invented the ‘Let Them’ theory in action. People who don’t know you can’t judge your character. People who don’t hold your morals and values; are not appropriate sources to judge. I…

We lost my dog Rupert Sunday morning. He was the youngest of my trio. Ellie was MY first dog. We had had a family dog before named Honey, but there is something about being responsible for providing that changes things. Ellie passed in 2023 and honestly I think a piece of me died with her.…

This morning I was able to spend the day on a limo bus with a variety of women who are all in different phases of life. It was such a beautiful experience to sing to music from two decades ago: dance under glowing lights: and sip some alcohol. Today was in celebration of a friend…

Oh yeah! Let’s talk about it. Pixies are so small they can only feel one emotion at a time and what a curse and blessing that much be! Think of how complicated it is to have conflicting emotions and how easy it would be to feel just one thing and be able to focus on…

Trying means making small changes. It doesn’t mean being perfect. Instead of a potato we have carrots and cukes. A little canned corn (dropped and dented it after shopping so had to use it) and a breaded pork chop. This dinner costs less than $5 per plate. Effort makes a difference. You won’t have instant…

I’m using a ghost Minnie Mouse Wallet: my table is covered with a pumpkin table cover. Somehow while taking down Christmas I overlooked my fall and Halloween that never got put away. Life is like this sometimes. We don’t need to be trendy or on point all the time. My house is clean but messy:…
