Ever heard a song that fits so well at a certain point or moment in your life that you are quite certain it was written about you and your “moments” or is it just me?
For example, the first time I had ever heard Kenny chesney was purely an accident.
How does one who admittedly doesn’t fit the mold, or even try to, have a happily ever after?
They know that since they don’t fit the mold, they don’t fit the typical moldy happily ever after…and they never settle.
I don’t even like the sound of “settle down”.
I certainly don’t like the sound [...]
Today at school the PIT’s class started working on their Father’s Day gifts.
(See why kids shouldn’t be in school past May 31st?!)
Father’s Day, as with anything involving the word “father” makes my stomach turn and is a touchy subject with the PIT
I braced myself for her tears as she brought up [...]
It’s been quite some time since I’ve actually blogged any new thoughts or words…for that I apologize.
(Sort of)
I guess I needed a mini hiatus.
My blog, my rules…this is why y’all love me, remember?
I’ll make it up to you with a PIT progress report.
She is well into [...]
There are endless challenges in the adventures of parenting for all of us. Single parenting a rambunctious and inquisitive little girl is a challenge I take on and quite enjoy daily.
She’s a fascinating little person and she’s absolutely gorgeous. Long dark hair, big brown eyes, the longest lashes I’ve ever seen [...]
It was a glorious fall morning in Minnesota. The bluest most untouched sky…sun shining bright…leaves starting to change that wicked red and orange of autumn.
I remember getting into my car that morning and thinking “it’s to fuckin early for this. Damnit that sun is bright! I feel [...]
I generally keep quiet when it comes to talking about relationships let’s face it…I don’t know shit about relationships
Or do I?
Depends how ya look at it I guess.
When I rip on my girlfriends (I’m always the bad friend reminding your girlfriends that they deserve [...]
My people are battered and bruised.
My people are hippies, recovering addicts, single parents, happily married, miserably married, ex cons and gang bangers.
My people are loving fathers and fierce mothers.
My people say “fuck” more than often and usually do so with a smile.
My people speak their minds, no holds barred.
I’ve mentioned my mother here before…..I’m going to do it again. (Brace yourself mom)
My parents divorced when I was 12, but long before that, my mother was raising my brother and I on her own. She was the primary care giver, punisher, yeller of “STOP FIGHTING YOU TWO!” and when my parents split…my mother [...]
Remember when she used to ask me things like “Why do I look like I should speak Spanish?” and “Wanna go for a walk mama?” ……when did we go from those questions to “How did Squash die?” and “When am I gonna grow boobs?!”
When did she grow up so much? And [...]
This may sound familiar, I said this last year too…..and then I got pissed, threw something and got over it so now it’s time to try again.
“In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life. It goes on.”

I decided [...]
I’ve been taking on a more positive approach to everything I do.
It has been a challenge for me-I’m way better at being the pissy bitter one, that seems to come more naturally-yet, if the law of attraction is in fact correct….well then no wonder my life feels like an [...]
The land between….what is it, where is it, have I been there, have you?
Well….my dear friend, Morgan, once wrote:
An experience we call “for now” in public, but a “for now” that, in private, in our heart of hearts, we fear will never change. ”
Jeff Manion calls the land between [...]
*The start of a daydream*
I can hear her singing to her stuffed animals in her room. The PIT is seriously always singing….even in my daydreams! I’m in the sitting in the sitting room (clever hey) of our spacious, yet cozy loft in a bustling city with a kick [...]
For me, the best part about blogging has been the people I’ve met along the way. There are some amazing stories out there…these are a few of my favorite addictions….

It was once said that I was lucky that I hadn’t been burnt so bad by love that Id completely given up.
Clearly a memo was missed.
I happen to think that having your “husband” cheat on you with not one but two crackwhores, in your own home, while you’re giving [...]
Earth Day is an annual tradition at our house.
The PIT INSISTS that we do our part to help clean up the planet.
She’s probably right.
Plus-I cannot resist those [...]
Alright so here’s the dilly yo.
I’ve been trippin lately….over my own self contempt.
Why? Because I can.
And because I let myself forget that just because I can, doesn’t mean that I have to.
I mean seriously, [...]
