I thought my mother was an Amazon woman

Timmy's recent stories about his dad's illness, recollections of him way back when and more recently concept of him, got me thinking about my own mom. Soooooo many stories. Some I can tell. This is a crazy one. Okay, most are crazy. I was 5'7" by around 6th grade. My brother is 6'5". We just come... Sign in to see full entry.

If a Tree Falls in the Forest....What's Your Brain Conundrum?

We all have them---those pressing "life" questions---even down to the all-essential, "what is the meaning of life?" My son came to me with a debate on the concept of God as omniscient/omnipotent. I don't want to turn this into a religious debate; it's just a good, concrete example. His discussion... Sign in to see full entry.

Do We Ever Figure Out How to be Sick

I was actually thinking of changing the title of this blog to The Wonder Years---if You're on Drugs...maybe that will tell you my frame of mind I've been in. In the middle of work Friday, I had a wave of absolute flu-like symptoms come over me quickly. I left just before the day would have ended. I... Sign in to see full entry.

Success and Appearance

My husband always gave me a tough time about the fact that my son was growing his hair long. For the record, I love long hair. Moreover, the real reason he grew it was because he came down with mono, then had to have his wisdom teeth out. He was stuck inside, not doing much for a long time. It was...

Sick Days

We all have our rituals whether we admit to them or not. I'm a creature of habit in many ways. The things I've had most are things I've had forever, and the friends I've had have been my friends since I was young. Ryan and I were home sick today. For most people that's a real bummer. In my house,... Sign in to see full entry.

Ups and Downs

I guess like any real journal this will have "Sybil" multipersonality days, up days and down days. I'm not sure which this falls into. I came home tonight, got a frozen dinner around 8, and commenced to working on a counter offer to the spouse regarding our separation of property. I actually cringe... Sign in to see full entry.

I Steal From My Son

..but he’s good with it. Ryan, 16, has a way of pigeonholing things. I think I’m verbal, but he’s way beyond me…so naturally, I have to steal his stuff. But how pathetic is it to steal material for your journal? If it's below 50 percent pathetic, I can live with it. -------------------------------... Sign in to see full entry.

The Other Guy

First---welcome to my private mental free for all. Strap on a cup and strap yourself in…I don’t know how to operate this piece of machinery. --------------------------------------------- As a teen, I always got crushes on that “other” guy. My cousins would circle some Bon Jovi look alike, and I’d... Sign in to see full entry.

It's time for a change

This blog took off pretty much from the start, so I know the idea is good...I'm just not the person to do it right now. I'll come back to it when life shakes out. In the meantime, I think I'm switching this to a journal more or less to keep me writing. Here's the wrinkle in all of this. I can't keep... Sign in to see full entry.

Why Do You Do What You Do

I'm taking a bit of a turn here, and I hope you'll indulge me. I'm trying to get a handle on what people are doing here. If you hang around the writing board regularly, please weigh in here, give a little bio and what types of writing you do for fun, profit, freelance/full time, college trained/self...
