    Step-Mothers Get No Respect: Reflections on the Major Suck that is Step-Parenting

    Big Mistake

    March 6, 2014 / No Comments

    There are few things that will send my blood pressure skyrocketing, and two of them happened in class today. One, someone telling me I am making assumptions, and two, someone insulting my intelligence.

    This is about the time an overzealous bitch got on my every last nerve, and how I will never forgive or forget her behavior.

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.
