Rainy Days and Mondays…
Live your life in spite of the possible chaos or you may miss the beauty in it too

Yep, it’s Friday… which is MY Monday. And I wanted to share my weird thought for the day…

I’ve been driving back and forth to California for several months now. And there have been several things that have crossed my mind in regards to getting back and forth safely.

* Will we be on this side of the border when the next earthquake hits (I’d be fine if I never felt the earth move under my feet)…

The Eyeliner Games – I’m Tired of Playing!!
Green eyeliners

I’ve never worn a lot of makeup, but it seems like I’ve always worn eyeliner. When I first started using it, and up until probably three years ago, I only…

Sticky Don’t Blow… It’s True!

I went with my son to the lab the other day… not because he needs mommy to tag along, but he likes the company.

And really, does anyone ENJOY going to the doctor alone!?!

Anyhow, while we’re waiting for him to get called back, he starts telling me about his camera.

Don’t Stop to Pee on Runaway Truck Ramps (And Other Highway Safety Tips)
Runaway Truck Ramps are NOT good places to park in front of!

I’ve been professionally driving now for 10 years. In that time, I’ve driven more miles than I drove in the 20-something years before that. And yeah, I’ve learned a few things, but I spend more time dodging those drivers who apparently never did!!

So I just wanted to share a few quick tips that may lengthen your life span while you’re out on the road doing whatever it is you’re doing.

Why Did You Eat Your Baby? Yes, Really!!
Kids, especially toddlers, say things you just dont expect... a LOT!

I admit it… this was a new level of child speak for me!

I took the house munchkin out and about with me recently while her mom was in bed sick. While wandering the grocery store, she went about her usual routine of saying hi to everyone she passed (she doesn’t know what a stranger is).

Well, as we were “talking” to people, it was the usual conversation…

It’s Not a Strategy, It’s Just an Unusual Way of Doing Things
Am I Normal? Define normal!

I know I’m not the only one who does this kinda crap! The question is, how many others are willing to admit it?! LOL

I have a cleaning “strategy”. Ok, so it’s less of a strategy and more of a “this is how we do it” sort of outcome. There’s no planning involved… It. Just. Happen.

Here’s where it all started…

I went to the bathroom…

Toddler Colds – A Nightmare For Grownups! (and not for the reasons you might expect)
Cold and flu necessities when germ season hits

While 2017 kicked off without a ton of fan fair or mayhem in my house, the month of January is certainly taking its toll!

My house munchkin caught a cold. No big deal right? I looked after her for nearly two weeks without a problem. And yes, I know, all the parenting books and courses and groups talk about how tough it is on our child/grandchild to feel sick. I’m not here to tell you how you should take care of a sick kid.

To hell with that… keep those sneezing, coughing, using their sleeves for a kleenex, snotty-nosed kids as far away from you as possible!!

The New Year is Here… Onward and Upward!
Welcome to 2017 - Its gonna be a great year!

I wasn’t really looking forward to 2017 this week. Not because I’m not looking forward to a new year getting started. I think it was more because I was expecting to be further along in the healing process of my ankle… and knee.

I mean seriously, I broke myself in February… of LAST year. They originally told me I’d be down six to eight weeks, and I thought THAT was going to be horrid! Now it’s closing in on an entire YEAR!! So I don’t really feel bad about having my damn 2-day pity party!!

Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep… Really!?!
The thoughts that keep us awake wouldn't be so bad if they were useful!

Good gosh! All those thoughts that start when you lay down to sleep for the night! You know the ones I’m talking about… the useless, good for nothing BUT keeping you awake thoughts that you just can’t get rid of… Like they couldn’t have come to mind while you were wandering through your day and awake anyway!?! Of course not!!

To add insult to injury (and lack of beauty sleep), most of the time, they’re not even productive thoughts! Take for instance when I couldn’t get to sleep earlier this week. Was I thinking about world peace or how to change my life into the type of life I’ve dreamed of… of course not.
