Giving Up for the Good (of Me)
Gentle warning…there is no epiphany coming. More of a therapist’s couch type of blog this week…apologies if you were hoping for a life lesson… Oh, hello there. Just give me a second to take off my apron and get my head out from inside this washing machine. Sorry if my stories blaring in the background … Continue reading Giving Up for the Good (of Me)
UnHERnged

Or, closer to home, the theory where … Continue reading Whoosh.
Feline-ding Herself
Trigger Warning: If stories about pets being in charge will cause you to run to the shelter and get one (or two) of your own that you will then go above and beyond to spoil, then definitely keep reading. Today we really, really, really realized how this whole 'my people are home all day long!' … Continue reading Feline-ding Herself
