Fair enough. #ROW80 tl;dr for A Round of Words in 80 Days participants – My one word for 2016 is FOCUS and for the first round of ROW80 I am focusing on my routines. January’s focus in particular is on my morning routine. Gold stars are raining. The End. During the first three weeks of January, I was regularly maintaining my morning […]
Focus. {January: Morning Routine} #ROW80
Focus. {January: Morning Routine} #ROW80 New Year. New resolutions. Bah. Humbug. I am over resolutions. I never even last three days with those things. And they are always the same ones (write so many words; lose weight; stop drinking pop). And by February I hate myself for failing. And then I sink rapidly into the […]
It is NOT Christmas Season yet. The calendar is NOT the boss of me.
It is NOT Christmas Season yet. Or at least, it doesn’t have to be. While most people in the U.S. are running around crazy prepping for The Holidays, my husband and I are struggling to get through Birthday Season. Our daughter’s birthday actually fell ON Thanksgiving this year. And my birthday is exactly two weeks […]
Quiet! Shut Your Face!
Quiet! Shut Your Face! 1. We are at my sister’s house hanging out. I say something silly, and my sister laughs because, honestly, it was pretty ludicrous. I laugh with her, then turn to my silent hubz, and shout, “Quiet! Shut your face!” Which sets my sister to laughter all over again. My hubz looks […]

This is an interesting Christmas Eve.
It’s an interesting Christmas Eve because… My hubz is at work today. He is pulling a double shift – open to close – which means he won’t be home till tonight. Poor Jesse. I’m so grateful for all the hours he puts in at his crap-tastic job. Which is why I’m focusing harder on my […]
Just say NO to obligatory Christmas Gifts!
I have seen so many comments about how people “have” to get Christmas gifts for people, and how stressful and expensive this is, and how they can’t wait till they’re done. That’s fucking ridiculous, you guys. If shopping for Christmas gifts is a chore, you’re doing it wrong. 1. You don’t “have” to get Christmas […]
Christmas might not suck.
This is the first year in many years that I am actually looking forward to Christmas. Usually I just try to muddle through the best I can, feigning holiday spirit as required and not giving more much than the bare minimum that’s expected of me. Under normal circumstances, you could call my “holly jolly” mediocre […]
Don’t be shitty this Holiday Season.
Don’t be shitty… re: party games. I am that wallflower that is too scared to join in. It’s so annoying to the other participants. Particularly when the games are busted out and you’re too nervous to risk looking stupid. My BFF threw a FriendsGiving get-together the weekend of Turkey Day festivities, and we ate a […]
