A while back I wrote about my marriage and how I wasn’t feeling as connected to the Spousal Unit as I would like…sorry I am too tired to link to that post. Anyway since the time I wrote that post, things have gotten a tad better. No, the Spousal Unit did not suddenly grow a luxurious head of hair, his beard …
So last night was a gorgeous night, the weather was lovely so I had the windows up in my bedroom. The girl child decided she wanted to watch a flick with Papa and let me have my time to chill alone in my room. If you are a parent, you can appreciate having time at night to lay in bed …
Its been a crazy week so while I wanted to write this post a few days ago, I only just found the time to actually sit down and do it. If you are a regular reader to my blog, you know that I regularly write about my financial woes. I know there are some who may wonder why I choose …

I write a lot about my family of choice, meaning the Spousal Unit and the kiddos. I have written about my beloved mother who passed away 5 years ago but I don’t write much about any other family. Real life friends especially newer friends have also noted that I rarely talk about my family. No, its not because I am …
I swear I won’t have too many more posts about my hair…drum-roll please…. I cut it off last night! Yep, I had planned to wait until I got paid and had some extra cash so I could go to get it colored right away but last night I just couldn’t take it anymore. So I said screw it, got the …
