Clarity. A full on Smack-You-In-The-Face-Wake-Up-And-End-The-Madness moment of clarity. There is so much more to life than wasting time on being disappointed and upset with your fellow humanoids. Getting angry and being disappointed in people on such a grand scale has no place in our lives. It’s taken up enough wasted...
On the morning of September 11th 2001, I was running late to work so I didn’t even bother turning on my car radio…I was just focused on getting from point A to B. When I got to work that morning, I was met with the kind of eerie silence that...
Seems like it all kinda happened at once today. There’s something about having two sets of uniforms and two sets of school supply lists in front of you that makes you think “holy crap, the madness of a serious education has begun. Dramarama Josh will be in 1st grade and...
Sometimes I think I wasn’t cut out to be someone’s spouse. Sometimes I think I wasn’t meant to be a mom. Most of the time I feel like I’m not living up to my full potential. Sometimes I think if Rose had scooted over just a little bit, Jack could’ve...

Yesterday was a tough day. Emotionally and mentally I was in a bad way. I got some bad news a few days ago affecting someone I love and it’s been a suckfest of drama for me in my overthinking head. I didn’t want to get out of bed and the...
I’m still flabbergasted at this whole war between SAHM vs. Working mom that’s still raging on. Apparently there’s an article going around about some research that says working moms raise more successful daughters and more caring sons… REALLY HARVARD? SERIOUSLY, DUDES? What do you hope to gain from this? More...
So this totally heartbreaking, cue the saddest music in the whole freaking world moment happened last night at bedtime: The boys and I were laying in bed looking at pictures of my parents on my ipad: Josh: They were little like us too and then they were your age and...
