Damn Fibromyalgia.
Have I mentioned how much I despise this nemesis of mine?
Oh, YES internets, it IS a nemesis of gargantuan proportion. I am the super hero, it is my kryptonite. I am the flame, it is the water that douses my fire. I am the ant, it is the jumper cable attached to [...]
A little tidbit for your holiday:
Ways in which my son felt effective in dealing with the ants on our driveway:
1. Douse them with gasoline and light them on fire2. Squash their heads off and watch them run around until they die3. Take my lighter and burn them one at a time4. Spit on them until [...]
Anyone who reads blogs knows how it goes. We start with one blog. They link to twelve more jeweled bits of journaling. We add them to our blogroll, and each blog we add has links to at least fifty wonderfully entertaining entries. We start sending links to our friends about granola , lube [...]
A man's role in life (at least, historically speaking) is to provide for his family. He trots off to work, deals with all the stresses and demands, then returns home with money in hand to purchase life's necessities.
Simplistic. Idealistic.
Sadly, our society's contorted view has changed the roles of our men (and women) as [...]
Dear KFC-I'm confused.For as long as I can remember, KFC stood for KENTUCKY fried chicken. So what brilliant ad-person came up with “Sweet Home ALABAMA” as your signature song? Whoever they are, give them a raise. And a map of the US.
Dear Chearleading mom:Please invest in a new bra. Your girls are headed south. [...]
I don't know what to say. Which is rare for me.
I've been spending all my time split between trying to recover from the infamous yard sale and my work-from-home endeavor, leaving little time for anything, including housework or my own mental health. Which are unrelated, as far as I can tell.
I'm in desperate [...]
I'll give you a moment to get over being upset with me for disappearing for a few days. Yeah, it wasn't very nice. Yes, I'm fine. I can sum it up in two words: YARD SALE. Yes, I'm still up to my eyeballs in other people's cast-offs, trying to squeeze pennies out of unsuspecting consumers [...]
The Mr. has been sporting the same sad rags passing for work clothes for far too long. The combination of his inability to avoid hard labor whilst wearing them and my poor laundering skills has left his wardrobe a bit lacking of the classy outfits his position requires. So off to the store I went!
I [...]
Envy. It's an ugly, UGLY emotion.
Aside from watching Victoria's Secret commercials (and trying to avert my eyes, but but being helpless to do so), nothing can make me feel more inadequate than walking into the home of one of my children's friends.
One might surmise by my previous tag line, “Terrifically, Superiorily Mediocre” that I [...]
Can you guess which one is me NOW?
Yeah…I'm pretty disgusted too.
I had fully intended this post to be another “honest” post of what I really look like and how completely unashamed I am. Surprisingly, I looked at a comparison of these two shots, all that optimism went straight out [...]
