Having an urge to pee is a new sensation after years of End Stage Renal Failure. It wasn’t pee that came out. It was blood. Lots of it. The toilet bowl turned red. My heart turned black. What is happening? Of course Franklin’s defense mechanism went up and downplayed the seriousness. It was Friday night. Over … Continue reading

Chapter 2 – Page 4
All I can think is how much I hate my husband right now. He’s at the golf course near home so he should be able to take care of our son. Now, I have to bail out of this meeting, take a cab for an hour that will cost me $100 and my poor son … Continue reading
Chapter 2 – Page 2
As I approach the bathroom I hear some ladies talking in loud hushed tones. People are so disillusioned. Once they are out of sight they think they have instant privacy to air their latest bullshit. Be it in a bathroom stall while on their cell phone, huddled in their cubicle, or in a car, I … Continue reading

Re-Structured, Re-Organization, Downsizing, all boils down to being now unemployed
There was a special team meeting. I thought they were finally awarding me the big Principles in Practice award I had been nominated for a couple of months earlier. It had to be reviewed and approved before winning. Nomination was not enough. I had won other Act for Impact awards and received their prizes already, … Continue reading
Trying to do Dialysis During the Remnants of Hurricane Sandy
As Hurricane Sandy was barreling it’s way to our neck of the continent it was foreshadowed with pains in the hubby’s stomach the day before it was to hit. Ugh…this is not good. He didn’t do dialysis the night before as it was his scheduled day off. His stomach has had twinges so he’s slept … Continue reading
Melt Down. Road Rash. Parental Guilt. Oh My!
With one passing comment from my lovely niece about missing knowing what’s going on in my life, it was enough to motivate me to write this post. I get to see my loves every week, but it’s not the same. They’re both in post-secondary education and add a boyfriend to boot, well, I’m just thankful … Continue reading
Speed Dating
I’m lucky to have found Franklin 20-years ago. We broke up a couple of times and I dated a few blokes. Almost all had sex on the brain. Some more shady than the next. Dude, if I’ve just puked, I DO NOT want to still make out. *shudder* And no, shoving cans of pop in … Continue reading
Late Night Feedings – Feed’em or Make’em Starve?
The kid’s are still suffering jet-lag. Or at least that’s the line I’m categorizing it. They’ve started to sleep till 5AM, but wake up starving. I’ve tried the old “if you don’t eat now, you’ll be hungry later”. Well, they are not hungry then. They are hungry later. They go to bed without dinner. But, … Continue reading
