    A Series of Unfortunate Events

    October 9, 2013 / No Comments

    Having served in the Navy sometimes feels like it happened to somebody else. Except for when life reminds me through a series of unfortunate events.

    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.

    I have stuff, and it all arrived finally this past week. Just so this happened the day after I picked up mr horrible from the airport. Happy coincidence? Yes.

    September 30, 2013 / 1 Comment

    I came to the realization this weekend that I have outgrown the ex. I find the ex tedious, and this epiphany was as frightening as it was enlightening.

    Bracing For Impact…

    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.
