The schedule my boys’ dad and I share is probably unique, but it’s been working for all of us for more than 5 years. There’s a good bit of back and forth for the guys, with them generally spending no more than two consecutive nights in either house but, since our two houses are literally … Continue reading The right things

Breaking (bad) boys
Is it just my kids who seem to break the most random household stuff? I'm not talking about the odd dish or glass, I'm talking about entire hanging racks of stemware, furniture and Sheetrock walls. I mean, how do they do it? The most recent thing to be destroyed in my home is a wall … Continue reading Breaking (bad) boys
The profoundness of This is Us

In light of what is happening in our country right now, it seems appropriate to drop these (edited to minimize redundancy) lyrics … Continue reading Gimme Some Truth

These days when I look at the two-sided garment rack which is stationed outside of the closet large enough for me to step inside of, I feel weighed down and vaguely embarrassed. It's too much. I’ve defended my consumerism with numerous excuses - I lost weight and … Continue reading The urge to purge
