There are a lot of crazy myths out there. There are a couple categories that I see over and over again that really bug me. And they finally bugged me enough that I have to say something before I lose it. #1 NO ONE is putting Nair in shampoo bottles and making their roommates/ former lovers/ stepsisters/ etc. go… Read more »
In recent weeks I’ve gotten both my flu and COVID shots for the year. My husband mentioned this in passing and someone made the comment that I was “living in fear”. Ummmmm no. I’m vaccinated against all kinds of diseases including measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis B, shingles, tetanus, influenza and yes, COVID. Once I hit 60 I’m going to get… Read more »
Anyone who knows me even a little knows that my niece and nephew are my heart. I love them almost as much as I would if I’d actually given birth to them. Luke is 21 and that is really hard for me to comprehend. I feel like it was just a couple years ago I held him at his baptism… Read more »
If you’ve been around here any length of time you know that I am not a fan of an over the top wedding. My advice to anyone who is planning a wedding is to not. Just elope and use that money for something useful. Buy a house. Pay down debt. Get a better vehicle. Your grandmother and that one aunt… Read more »
September is Suicide Prevention month. The month is almost over, but suicide prevention- and metal health awareness in general- are things I care deeply about. I’ve been very open about my mental health struggles for the most part. I’ve talked about my teenaged suicide attempts. I’ve talked about supporting friends and family members with metal health conditions. I’ve talked about… Read more »
It’s been a hot minute since I’ve done one of these so let’s get right to it! #1 I am allergic to cats. I take Allegra every day year round and I am used to my own cats. But other cats make me sneeze and make my eyes itch like crazy. But I want to meet them all anyway! #2… Read more »
Four years ago in mid-August we were right in the middle of the saga of Black Kitty, Gray, Kitty, and Striped Kitty aka Lilly’s spawn. We raised / fostered them until they were about 8 weeks ago and then they all went to their hand-selected forever homes. And I was not emotionally prepared for any of it. If you weren’t… Read more »
I’m having a blob weekend. My brain is in autopilot and my body is operating at a level I would call “just about a coma”. Hope you have a great week and I’ll be back next week with more of the random musings you’ve come to expect from me 🙂
About 6 months ago I wrote that I had found a great YouTube Channel- Yoga with Adriene. I also admitted that I have tried many times in the past to get into yoga but I got frustrated and gave up. I’m happy to report that I haven’t given up yet even though progress has been slow. I’m still terrible at… Read more »
Energy drinks aren’t anything new- they have been around for decades. And I’ve always been of the opinion that they taste like crap- at least the sugar free ones. Years ago I had a sugar free Monster in a white can (don’t ask me what flavor it was) and it tasted like sucking on pennies. I’ve had sugar free Red… Read more »
