Morning,
Well! 5 days and counting until the slicing and dicing. And it just can’t come a moment too soon!
But in other good news, today is a positive day for me leg-wise; I woke up feeling rather refreshed and capable. After designing my FabFitMom affiliate tutorial, I went off on my […]

Morning,
Well! 6 more days and I shall be sliced and diced and hopefully have my leg problem resolved.
That’s the good news.
The bad news is that I’m fast running on empty with regards to all of this. I find myself besieged with emotional roller coasters…and sometimes just want to give myself permission to […]

Morning,
Yesterday I had my last class in women’s self-defense, and let me tell you, it was utterly eye-opening to the extreme.
I’d like to urge everyone reading (men and women alike!) to take a self-defense class (mine was given by our local police); the common-sense taught on how NOT to become a victim in the […]

Morning,
I first came across this poem back in 1986 - enjoy!
Life is a four letter word……..
I think you spell it L-O-V-E
It’s really as simple as that……
No, I don’t really think that I can totally describe love
but I do know some things about it.
Seems to me that in order to be in love, you have […]

Morning,
Today I debated about taking my kids to the movies, and learned that a 3-D Beowulf was in the theaters.
But is it appropriate for kids?
According to many of the sites I found, errrrr…..the answer is NO WAY!
If you’re a parent, checking out what’s good for kids is always a wise thing before spending money […]

“This is madness! You must give her sanctuary!”
Ramis was silent a beat too long, as if to give Auriane time to listen to herself. There was no flicker of emotion in that enigmatic face. Then she whispered, “I won’t tear the fair web spun by one far greater than I.”

“You care naught […]

Morning,
Well.
Well well.
Well.
I’m due for surgery now in 12 days (that’s the good news!).
The bad news is that my leg problems are increasing daily. I started my beloved circle walk….and after 100 feet, realized…it would be utter insanity to continue it.
So I came back home.
I’m at a crossroads yet again in my life. […]

Morning,
About 1.5 months ago or so, I experienced an amazing array of emotions during one of my Kendo (Japanese swords) classes. It was the first time I had really sparred, and I had been put face to face with utter, blinding fear. You can read about it over at this post.
Well…yesterday I […]

Morning,
I’m a firm believer that everything in life happens for a reason. You might not know at that very moment just why things are occurring, you might not understand it for another week or year or decade or even three decades….but sometime in the future, the light is going to go zingo! in […]

You know, sometimes I think people should have to pass rigorous exams in order to become a parent.
It’s astonishing to me, absolutely beyond belief, how many parents will allow their darling brats to run wild in life and society…and then, when confronted, defend their kids’ lousy behavior instead of saying, gosh, you’re correct. […]
