Trying

I saw this yesterday, and it resonated with me: To me, this is what life is all about. To me, this is what success is all about. Trying. And supporting each other through our varied efforts. Does that mean that you succeed at every time? Absolutely not! It means that you just keep getting back …

Saying, Not Meaning

**Those of you who know me well know that I try to be as positive as I can as much of the time as I can. Dealing with F, writing negative posts about F – it’s all been really hard on me. I’ve hated every moment of it. As such, I’ve made some adjustments and …

Not For HER

I still very clearly remember waking one November morning, wishing that I’d had a nightmare the night before. Or hoping that I had escaped a parallel universe into the right one – the one where logic and kindness governed. Unfortunately, I woke up in the era of Trump. I knew it would be bad, but …

Squirrel

A friend posted this on Facebook a couple of days ago, and it’s had me thinking: Honestly, it’s made me glad that I’ve decided to have FWB instead of seeking love. Friends with benefits take up so much less time! My writing has taken a back seat for a year now. I keep saying that …

Small Kindnesses

** For those of you who are wondering, I haven’t seen any sign of F in a few days. Yay! Also, I have re-opened my dating profile, searching for FWBs. Surprise surprise, I’m offering free sex and I already have a Meet and Greet scheduled for this weekend. Yay! ** A friend posted the following …

Just Love

I saw this on Facebook the other day, and I wanted to share it with you. As I was driving to work this morning, I was faced with some serious selfishness. This couple was either completely oblivious to the fact that they were potentially making a whole bunch of people late to work or they …

Snapchat

To those of you who received yesterday’s late email, I sincerely apologize. That was posted accidentally, and should not have been. Have I mentioned that some days I feel really old? My children ensure that I am put in my place as often as they can. My daughter keeps trying to get me to get …

Zucchini Season

I think I might have bitten off more than I can chew. Literally. I planted four zucchini plants. Some people thought I was nuts for making such a move, but my zucchini in the past hasn’t done very well. Last week, I made deep fried zucchini. I made it one night and ate it for …

Mixed Signals

So, I’m a bum. I didn’t have a blog to post today. So, I dug up an old one that I never got around to posting (I usually don’t post the negative ones I write.) Since F is still lurking on my blog (yesterday was particularly bad) I have no objections to posting this one …

Before #MeToo

I read this article the other day, and it sickened me. For now, let’s leave The Cheeto out of it. Let’s just look at it from the #MeToo side. (Please feel free to use the video/link to discuss The Cheeto at will, because there is a lot of material there for fodder!) If you didn’t …
