MORE SEX, LESS CHOCOLATE?
My friend at work told me yesterday that there is a new patch available for women. It is a patch that increases the libido. Apparently a low libido has become a big enough issue for women that something had to be done. A bonus side effect of this patch is that it lowers your cravings for chocolate....

I'M GETTING MUSHY NOW. FEEL FREE TO GAG.
My guy and I decided to try out a new diner in town tonight. He excused himself for a moment and left me alone with my thoughts, the thoughts that tend to run wild sometimes. His plate sat across from me half empty. We are already comfortable enough for me to be eating off of it. I was invited to do...

PLEASE JOIN ME IN MY GRIEF
My migraine medication has taken something very precious from me, a very simple pleasure.The taste of Dr. Pepper. Today I am grieving this loss. It has been almost a month since I have tasted my favorite drink. I have put it to my lips, I have swished it in my mouth, felt the tingle on my tongue and...

ALL IN A DAYS WORK

I was making room for the files of the children I’ve been taking on and I came across the files of the ladies that had been on my caseload that passed away this year. There had been three of them. I had never done anything with their...

I am an insecure writer. I know without a doubt that I write crappy stuff. I also know that occasionally I...

KNOWING WHEN TO SAY WHEN (CAUTION, KIND OF A DOWNER)
My grandmother combs my grandfathers hair, though she is just as fragile and weak as he. She has been the one to take care of him for all their years of marriage and there is no way she will give up that privilege now. She sits by his bed all night when he goes to the hospital. She makes excuses for...

SUDDENLY I LIKE DATING AGAIN
So I’m spinning around in la la land tonight. Set up guy from here on out will be referred to as “my guy.” As you may have guessed, date #2 went very well. To begin with, he passed the ever so important Cocoa test. That means my male dog has to give his approval and he did so with no problem. That...

THE SECOND INTERVIEW..I MEAN DATE
Tonight is date #2 with set up guy, we've talked on the phone several times now. I suppose at some point I will have to give him a different name but we'll see how it goes first. The independant woman in me has been fighting the urge to couple up with anyone. I have gotten so use to being alone, I...

ACKNOWLEDGING MY FAVORITE TEACHER
Junior high was an important time for me. As I’m sure it is for most people. I had spent my elementary school years out of district so in seventh grade, I made a lot of new friends. I was excited about switching rooms for each class and sitting wherever I wanted for lunch. I also really liked the...
