The Complicated Process of Writing and Living
My first reaction to Mama Kat’s writing prompts this week was, “Oh, I definitely have to do the one about what complicates my life because that’s easy.” Fab Hub raised his eyebrows and looked at me over the top of his glasses like He does. This look usually means one of two things: He is…

Kidzilla Speaks – A Quickie from the Kitchen
Everybody knows that kids say the darndest things. There was a TV show about it, right? Bill Cosby was the host and it was based on material from an old Art Linkletter show. You can YouTube that and get some good laughs. Our Kidzilla, of course, comes out with a few winners every now and…

Are Super Heroes Real?
Forgive me for jumping on the super hero bandwagon, but when I find myself inspired by circumstances around me, well, I follow that inspiration. As anyone who has been to a summer blockbuster knows, when the lights come up and the credits roll to the sound of the soaring, blood-pumping soundtrack , it is incredibly…

Scattered Thoughts for a Lazy Friday
I meant to have a post ready for today…honest. And then, as I often say, life got in the way. This is not a bad thing. In fact, it’s very good. It’s been a busy week. Allow me to share some updates, observations and discoveries…

Thoughts on Dreams
I admit it: I am one of those English majors who will “think for food,” as the joke goes. I will read and think about pretty much anything you throw at me. If there is food involved in the process, more the better. When I think about life, my thoughts nearly always turn to words for…

Things I Never Thought I Would Do
Once upon a time, I was completely non-girly. Femininity is one thing, but girly-ness is a whole other state of being. I did not cry at sappy love stories. Anything sparkly, ruffle-laden, or pink would cause me to roll my eyes and make retching sounds. Princess movies did not make me swoon and the sight…

Did You Really Say What I Think You Said?
Sometimes life is absurd. Over the several years, Fab Husband and I have found ourselves saying things out loud that are seemingly absurd. Generally, it is something one of us overhears when the other is in the next room. By themselves, these things are truly absurd. However, when placed within the context of raising a…

A Random Thought in a Busy Day
Today’s random thought is brought to you by Fab Husband. Some things just make you scratch your head…and wonder. Fab Husband took this photo and said I should put it on my blog:

Thoughts on Patience
Tonight, I was halfheartedly poking around looking at quotes and short pieces on patience – because I’m not feeling very patient right now. Not with anything. Not with the pizza guy or the Rotten Cats or the weather. Not with myself or the people around me, not with the circumstances in life that we’ve been…

My Bad Day Monday
Monday was kind of a bad day. Although after sitting here for a while with a cup of hot homemade soup, poking around the headlines and getting a few reminders that there are far worse things in other people’s lives than I had to deal with. Everything in perspective. Forgive me for sounding like the proverbial…
