Shame.

A letter to my Senators and Representatives: I hope you will all write one of your own. Don’t know how? Try here: Representatives Senators Can’t find the words? Use mine. To Whom It May Concern; Today, I am embarrassed to be an American. Our powers that be are finding their agendas and their own wallets…

For my daughters

Hello my little darlings! My sweet little lamb and my active little monkey, today’s post is all about you. My hope is that one day, when you are able to read and can comprehend the advice I’m going to give you, we’ll read this together. First, I want you to know that even though you…

A little check up for my 200th Post!

Welcome to my 200th post! *Hooray!* I can’t believe it took me this long to accomplish this, but procrastination seems to be my word of the… life. My original plan was to do a giveaway and then, when I couldn’t make up my mind, I decided that after too many weeks of not blogging (again)…

100 Girls in 100 Days Project: FAIL

I’m feeling a long post coming on. You’ve been warned. Or congratulated. Whichever you prefer, really. The blog I am about to dismantle and over analyze I came across on another blog that I read called Hooking Up Smart. Susan has some fantastic advice and is usually spot on when it comes to dating. She…

An Award: Most Useful Bridesmaid

It was Wednesday. The sun was shining. The wind was cold. I was mostly alone in the house. And I woke up just in time to rouse the chickens. This is the craptastic thing about flying west when you live east. Technically you gain three hours. But technically you’re also going to bed at 3…

Day Two of the Wedding Hullabaloo

I arrived in sunny (cold) Medford, Oregon to Missy and her hubby Ryan, which was a surprise! I thought her parents were picking me up at the airport.  I was sleepy looking and bloated from riding on airplanes without water (which lasted ALL WEEK… thanks United/Delta!), I was miserable and looked it.  I couldn’t even…

They Found True Love

Okay, okay!!! I’m back! I finally have enough brain cells built back up after 30 hours (or was it the whole week?) of being awake to recount the fabulous, albeit sleepless, week in Oregon. As I sit here with my sleepy old man I shall recount part one of my wedding/traveling experience. (Who, by the…

Layovers Blow

So, I’m back….sort of. I’m sitting in the Vegas airport. Laid over. Hung over. Just… over. For thirteen God-forsaken, freak-filled, Starbucks coffee overloaded fucking hours. It’s been a long exhausting really fantastic week. I can’t wait to tell you all about it. Things like Mayan Calendar readings. Bachelorette party what the fucks. And why I’m…

What a tease…

This is some blog love! I’m probably getting ready to leave for the airport about now and wringing my sweaty hands and hoping I didn’t forget to pack anything. Tomorrow at this time I’ll probably still be sleeping after flying all day today. I checked for free WiFi in the airports and of course mine…

A Little French Toast Between Friends

We’re snowed in again, or I should say, some more.  Old Man Winter has staked his claim on Southwest Michigan and seems to be staying for the duration.  3 days and 18 inches of fluffy white stuff scattered about; we have ourselves quite the Winter Wonderland. Good thing I finally found some boots, although… I…
