A Big Weekend

Yay!  I’m finally caught up!  I wrote this yesterday.  Woohoo! What did I do for the last month?  NaNo.  I wrote another book in November.  I finished it the morning of the 22nd (boy was I thankful I was done with it!) What do you do after you’ve finished writing a book?  Fill every single …

The Worst Way

Why is it that we are so fascinated by the macabre?  There is an accident on the freeway, and traffic is made even worse by people rubber necking.  Why do we want to see it? I am incredibly sensitive to visual stimuli.  Once I see something, it’s very hard (if not impossible) for me to …

Might He Have It?

Last night, Mr. C came over to my house and helped me clean out my garage.  My mother was also present.  About half way through, when he wasn’t in earshot, she made an exasperated face and said, “He’s driving me nuts!” I quickly responded that it is his ADHD kicking in.  While I used to …

Tear Gas

Alright – you ready?  I’m going to give you my opinion on the the situation at the border, and I’m guessing that it’s going to surprise you. I support the use of tear gas at the border. That’s right – I said it.  You heard me correctly.  I think that was a fair and just …

Involuntary

I read an article today which gave me pause.  It’s the story of a little boy who died due to a bad choice his mother made.  She wasn’t trying to harm anyone, but the decision she made cost her son his life.  She is being charged with involuntary manslaughter. My first thought was – it’s …

I’ve watched this little guy twice, now, and I think he’s just too cute. However, watching him makes me really sad. I have so many regrets when it comes to how I raised my children.  Yes, I taught them to cook, but I never gave them the free range to just be kids.  As I …

CPAP Details

Have you ever wondered what is like to have a CPAP?  I’m gonna give you details, from a newbie. We’ll start off with the set up I have: The thing under his nose is called a “pillow.”  I tried on a couple different ones, but this one seemed the least offensive. (Side note – I …

Sensitive

When I was married, my husband used to claim that I was “hyper super sensitive.”  It hurt my feelings more than I can tell you.  I’ve expressed this to Mr. C, yet he still claims that I’m “super sensitive.” Yah.  Because that’s so much better. I saw this article today and I wanted to cry.  …

CPAP Update

Okay.  I’ve had my machine for about a month, now, and I wanted to give you an update. Holy crap I hate this thing! I looked back at the blog I wrote when I first got it, and it sounded like I did okay.  For the past week or so, I’ve been struggling with it. …

Seeing the Fat

When Mr. C and I started on this journey this time around, he told me that he would need my help.  He would need me to help him figure it out.  He would need me to point out when and how he was messing up. Yah, it sounded good on paper. The problem is – …
