Today’s one of those days when to be honest I need to be honest, I am not looking for tips, suggestions or any of that because I can assure you I already know. I just need to give voice to the shit that keeps me up at night. I love my kids, I would die for them, and my son …
It’s Monday, my brain is fried but I was a photo snapping fool this weekend. So rather than post nothing let me share a few moments from my weekend. PS: The Spring help a sista raise some cash to spruce this joint up campaign is winding down, please consider giving. Due to some things I am working on, I have …
Today is Mother’s Day, a day we celebrate and honor the women who in the ideal world not only brought us into the world but also raised us, nurtured us, sustained us and just loved us. It’s a day where the good feelings seem to flow like cocaine at a 1980’s rock party! Yet for some women Mother’s Day is …
I originally wrote this post in 2011 back when I had all of 17 readers and most of the them family members. However this post remains one of my most read with requests asking for updated information and in light of a recent comment that was left, I decided to revisit this post. Lately I have gotten a few inquiries about …
This is one of those weeks where I am living life at about 90 miles per hour but in many ways, its all good. In my mind I want to sit down and write a meaningful post but the truth is I just don’t have the energy, in light of the death of public enemy #1 there is so much …
This is mature subject matter, its highly advised if you are related to me that you skip reading today’s post since you really don’t need to know everything about your mother, sister, etc…for everyone else, read away! I almost hesitate to write this post but I can’t help thinking I can’t be the only one in this boat and as …
I went out and played in the dirt on my property and look what I found! Smells great, I have no idea what these flowers are but the girl child wanted to bring some in…nature’s air freshener. More dirt play this weekend as we spend time reveling in nature’s gifts. You May Also Like: No related posts.
As the mother of an almost six year old girl who went through a real hot and heavy phase with all things pink and princess, I must admit I have come to loathe the princess shtick. Not because I am an evil curmudgeon but frankly because the princess play of today is very different than when I was a wee …
I am not trying to start a Mommy War here, let me say right now. If we are women responsible for the care of others, chances are good that we are master ball jugglers. That said I am a woman, a mother and I work for money outside of the home, at times those competing roles threaten to drown me …
