Sometimes you're in the middle of folding laundry and are watching Abstract: The Art of Design on Netflix at the same time and thinking about how you've been in this really weird frustrating place for the past several days. It's a place you find yourself over and over again, probably once every couple of months... Continue Reading →
morning ride and the state of my brain
I thought since last night's walk was so pain free and relatively easy that this morning's bike ride would be the same. Um, no. Apparently my legs are still in rebellion mode because those 6 miles were more than a bit lackluster. There is one TINY hill on this route and I was struggling to... Continue Reading →
this is why i’m in therapy folks
Texts this morning from yet another friend who is struggling for different reasons. Sometimes people are incredibly mean, closed minded, and heartless in their well-meaning-ness, if that makes any sense. I know life is difficult and there are struggles to be had. Its not all peachy keen, hunky dory, sunshine, rainbows, and unicorns, but I... Continue Reading →
Valentine’s Day. Quit yer whining.
Today kiddo and I made Valentines and then I attempted to get her to nap. No dice. So we went to the grocery store instead and got Super Bowl food (just an excuse to buy junk) and stuff to make Valentine cupcakes tomorrow. Should be fun. And messy. And yummy. I'm not a Valentine's Day... Continue Reading →
Testy

I know that I am kiddo's whole world at this stage in her life so I try to keep perspective and channel... Continue Reading →

You see, I no longer have a routine, unless you count lots of sleeping, cupcakes, and mentally tripping the senders of these relentless running emails as they walk down stairs. So by all means,...

grumpy mcgrumperson
I am not a fan of small talk nor am I very good at it. Post holiday small talk tops the list of all categories of dreaded chitty-chatty-for-no-reason banter. Hello person with me in the elevator who I don't know but who I think works in accounting..."how was your Christmas" they ask me...I say "it... Continue Reading →
shutting down
Today has been, oh, what's the word I'm looking for? Oh yeah, SHITTY. That's it. And I just deleted the long post explaining why. So I will do what I usually do. Announce that I'm in a pissy mood and then shut down, crawl in my hole until my psyche cycles out of it, and then... Continue Reading →
aaaaaand here we are
Hi. I'm in one of those "I feel like talking/typing but I have nothing of value to say but am going to post anyway" kind of moods. Which usually ends up to be long rambling paragraphs about baby poop or the dream I had last night. But you don't mind or else you wouldn't be... Continue Reading →
