Covid Pandemic – Working Mom – Caregiver Wife


I’d love to write a more eloquent post that starts with how I’m feeling, the different reasons why, and then conclude with some profound insight.

Irresponsible dog owners and their Nasty Nuggets


I see some dude with his kid walking their dog and I wonder what type of parenting he’s practicing.   Their dog poops on somebody’s lawn and they keep walking without picking it up.  GRRR!!  If you can’t take care of your pet’s crap, then don’t own one.  Now, you are teaching your kid that it’s … Continue reading
