laughing and crying through reality
So, I was reminded the other day that it has been a while since my last post. Sorry to leave you all hanging and waiting on the next sarcasm filled entry about my crazy life:) It just so happens that my children never cease to disappoint and have left me with a story to share […]
Last week I had yet another appointment in Rochester. It was a rainy, gloomy drive up and it was still cold and damp when I returned to my car following the appointment. My mood didn’t lighten the atmosphere, but instead weighted the cloud that seemed to be looming over my head. I was moping and […]
If you don’t speak fluent teenage boy or are sensitive to certain content then here is your warning to tune out of this blog post because it will either have you laughing hysterically or mortified beyond repair.

Ok, so I fully support freedom of speech, but I also firmly believe that just because you have the freedom to say something that does not mean that you should. For those of you that know me well, you are probably a bit confused right now because you know that I am a very outspoken […]
I have mini-strokes almost daily when entering the school zone and encountering many of the “fashion” statements that are being executed by our kids. As much as I would love to believe that many of these kids are sneaking out of the house and changing or caking on the paint at school, sadly I am afraid […]
Just to be clear before I start, my son (whose name is Ryan) is just as much my whole world as my daughters are, but boys are gross ya’ll. For anyone who has a son, I am guessing you already see where I am going with this and probably have many many stories of your […]
