I didn’t have a good weekend. It rained all day Saturday and we were running around all day Sunday because it was Mother’s Day. Of course the daughter decided that Sunday would be a day she would grind against the grain of everyone else and, as much as I love her, single-handedly ruined an otherwise… Read More Family ties to technology
The last few months I’ve become painfully aware of one truth that I had, for years, denied myself from believing. It’s the truth that unless something drastically changes in the lives of my family, we’re going to forever be owing money to other people. Mortgage loan servicers, credit card companies, auto financiers, utility companies, insurance… Read More I’m ready for a vacation
Dacia of Britestfyrefly nominated me for the Mystery Blogger’s Award, and I thank her for doing so as I was in a rut as to what my topic today should be. Here is her Mystery Blogger’s Award post if you’re interested in seeing her questions and answers. I’ve been following her for a while now… Read More Mystery Blogger Award
I’ve soooooooo been off my game lately. Not that I’m complaining per say, but it’s starting to get a little ridiculous at this point. For the last several weeks I’ve consistently been thinking about technology and how it’s literally invaded the lives of everyone around me.

I had the last four days off and had hoped that Monday and Tuesday I would primarily be by myself. That didn’t happen and I’ve been on a consistent angry simmer for the last 48+ hours. Nothing I’ve done, or attempted to do, has gone according to any semblance of a plan I had ridiculously… Read More On a slow anger simmer
I need some downtime. For the last few weeks, I’ve had something to do pretty much every day from the time I’ve woken up to the time I’ve gone to sleep. It seems like months, but in reality it’s only been maybe three weeks. The stress of going from one thing to the next has… Read More This is your brain on stress
This is an opinion piece based on the article below. How bad does the world have to get before we start to realize that it’s not all clean tap water, endless food buffets and golden toilets that whisk our poop away? Real people, children, are suffering an agonizing slow death because of a comparatively smaller… Read More Humans don’t need to suffer like this
It has been quite an interesting week or so, lots of things going on that will have an impact on my life over the next few weeks to few months. First thing’s first though, my “cave” is now complete because I have now mounted that television that’s been sitting on the floor for weeks. Here… Read More Monday randomness
It was an interesting weekend that capped off with something really awesome…..I was picked up as a contributor to EatPrayVote. I’ll soon be removing all anonymity from this blog, but won’t be advertising my full name in too many places. It’s related to the fact that I wanted to contribute under my real name rather… Read More Missed my Monday post (updated)
