I don’t mean to alarm you but the school year is all but over. There is only one more full week for my kids. I am super excited and super freaked out. My three days a week of sanity-saving alone time is coming to an end. This is my last chance to savor the all […]
Growing Up In The Awesome 80s
As I watched my children play with their tablets I started thinking back to my childhood. I had a great childhood. What an awesome time to grow up. I was inspired to compile a list of the things that I loved as a child. Just to show my kids how cool it really was. 1. […]
My Life Without A Biological Father
I do not know my biological father. I have never met him. There used to be a stigma attached to that. I have never been one to offer up that information. Maybe I was protecting my mother. Maybe I was protecting myself. We didn’t want to be judged. Or pitied. It was no one’s business. […]
I’m On My Journey And I’m A Long Way From Done.
Last year I wrote a blog post about the Power Of Turning Forty. Forty was a big deal. You will never get me to say the words “middle-aged” though. Type them sure. But never say them. My lips are sealed. The number 4-0 made me feel like I was entering a whole new era. The […]

It Is Almost My Birthday. Still Looking For The Perfect Gift?
I love December. There are so many good things about the last month of the year. The least of which is NOT my birthday. I love my birthday. That is right. Later this week I will turn the big……41. Which is possibly worse than 40 because now when someone asks my age, instead of a […]

Perfectionist: 1. a person who adheres to or believes in perfectionism. a person who demands perfection of himself, herself, or others. 2. I KNEW I was in the dictionary under perfectionist.

I Am In The Freaking Holiday Spirit. Come Join Me.
I cannot believe that I am about to confess this. But here goes….. I am already in the holiday spirit and I am ready for Christmas. It is a little embarrassing because I am usually the cool one. I am not one of those Christmas nerds. I am always calm, cool and collected. I merely […]
