    February 5, 2022 / No Comments

    I don't want to repeat the same old mistakes. In order to move forward, I have to take a long hard look at the past.

    Decay of a Decade: Looking Back and Setting Better Goals

    December 31, 2019 / No Comments

    It is that time of year – the day before the New Year, time to take stock and plan ahead. In particular, it is time to evaluate the last 10 years and figure out how to better approach the years to come. I figure I can’t do much worse than I already have, what do I have to lose?

    My So Called Summer — Pt 2 — Crap Covered Walk Down Memory Lane

    December 5, 2014 / No Comments

    December is hurtling towards January at ludicrous speed.  Which brings me to finish my recap for the summer of 2014. Given the general shitty-ness of what happened in Virginia, my kids have nothing good to say, and what they could say is probably not worth sharing.

    Happy Divorce!

    March 11, 2014 / No Comments

    Happy Divorce to me! It’s been a year and I can say it has been a very monumental year, also, it has passed very quickly. I took a moment to ruminate on how it has impacted my life so far…

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.
