    Pandemic Graduation – Surprise, the Ex is Still an Asshole

    May 31, 2020 / No Comments

    My youngest son has graduated high school. Thanks to COVID-19 the graduation ceremony was first cancelled, then postponed, then it evolved into this weird drive-thru event at a race track.

    Not Falling For That Again…

    October 18, 2013 / No Comments

    I’m getting real tired of people taking advantage of my kindness. It starts out benign, one day they ask for a ride. Then the next thing you know, they act like it should be no big deal to get you to take them all over Timbuktu at the drop of a hat.

    Tales from the High Road…

    September 16, 2013 / No Comments

    I consider it a gross abuse of my kindness and familial obligation to be tardy to an event you have asked me to help you with.  OMG! Case and point: Helping my brother move the last pieces of furniture from his old apartment to his new one. He asks for my help because I have a truck and trailer (I totally “fit in” here in Texas, who knew?). I told him I wanted to get started at 9am because (SURPRISE!) it is still hot in Texas in September, and lately, by noon the heat is in the high nineties and I am even less interested to do any heavy manual…

    A Lame Excuse By Any Other Name, Is Still Lame…

    April 19, 2013 / No Comments

    I received an email in my Inbox, specifically to a folder where I am having the emails from my ex redirected to, and it was from several days ago. Having his emails re-routed out of my Inbox is therapeutic, since thinking about him still pisses me off, I see no point in allowing him to be the thing that sends me spinning off into the anger vortex, this way I can see his emails when I’m good and ready–not have them sneak attack me at random times of the day. So back to the email…

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.
