    Mattress Junction and the Time Thief…

    October 7, 2013 / No Comments

    Why is the testing center closed on Sundays? Bogus! See, this is why I end up not trusting people. I specifically asked a friend who went to the testing center on Friday to find out what hours they were open over the weekend. I got her text saying Saturday and Sunday, and I even asked for verification! I don’t think I will ask her for help again.

    Sleep? What’s that?

    October 6, 2013 / No Comments

    Who’d have thought that I’d actually forgo sleep to get my work done? I have come a long way from the days of my youth. I know for sure that in the face of overwhelming odds I’d have rolled over and gone to sleep. So there is a lot to be said for being older and wiser. That and being a single mom I think helps me put all the whiny “OMG I can’t do it” bullshit into perspective when there is no one for me to rely on. If I don’t do it, it’s not getting done. Simple as that…

    Boxes vs Papers – Clash of the Titans

    October 5, 2013 / No Comments

    I have painted myself into a dangerous corner. I don’t want to label it procrastination because I would think that what I had been doing instead of doing my papers would have been fun (like watching TV or reading a book), but it too has been work and just as important.

    September 24, 2013 / No Comments

    I must be suffering from the effects of residual stress because my head has been pounding all day. I can only assume that it is my body reacting to what I have yet to wrap my mind around completely: that in a matter of hours my calm will be disrupted by the arrival of mr horrible. I have been too busy to really stop and take stock.

I blog about the random ass shit going on in my life. I'm a single mom, a Navy veteran, avid reader, and coping with life post-divorce. I have two sons and five cats, so clearly, I'm a catch. I pull no punches and use salty language. Read at your own risk.
