Help? Why Bother Sometimes?
The old adage goes “You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t force him to drink.” Well, I’ve been frustrated my horse won’t drink. Can’t I just put my hand on it’s neck and force it’s head into the water?! I try and try. I enlist other people to help me get this … Continue reading
Golfing…..Again
It’s a double edged sword. Being ok with his golfing 5 days a week. I want him to go out. He’s happier. He’s healthier. And with that comes better quality time. We talk. We laugh. We take the kids out. What more could I ask for? Well, I’m a greedy b!tch. How about a morning … Continue reading

You are an acquaintance who’s trying to leap … Continue reading
Fill it up!
My goodness! Prices for gas is just utterly ridiculous. It’s bad enough that a vacation where I get on a plane is probably not going to happen this year, but even just driving is so expensive. $75 to fill up my tank on my family mobile. And that was at $1.34/L. I feel for those … Continue reading

As we eat our fried egg sandwiches with cheese, Marcus wants to have a bite of mine. Sure. Have a bite of mine. Eat yours. Just eat up buddy. Yours is so good mommy. It’s the same thing son. Can I have yours mommy? It’s the same thing son. Can we trade then mommy. It’s … Continue reading
