The day after my last depressing post about how the Goff family was really struggling this happened while Lou and I were eating dinner on Friday night. Me: “Lou what is that sound?” Lou: “I don’t know.” Me: “It sounds like water.” I jump up from the table and head towards the whooshing sound coming…
my life after tiara
Since turning 51 all this has happened…
As I mentioned last week, I was preparing to celebrate my 51st birthday with plans of being polite Tiffani, not rude Tiffani. I did it, I did it! I was nice all day even when I opened my presents. Apparently when I opened Trinity’s present I said: ” Wow, I actually love these glasses!” Tabitha:…
It’s my birthday and I’m not easy to deal with on this day…
Well today I am fifty-one and my goal is to be nice to my family and not controlling on my birthday. Lofty goals… You may not know this about me but I’m very difficult about my birthday. When you ask me “what I want,” I say nothing. When you ask me ” can we go…

A few months ago I told myself I was going to find a therapist because I knew I was losing my shit in the midst of this pandemic. After bouts of crying, screaming at everyone, lots of naps and overall insane behavior on my part, Lou suggested I seek help. For once, I knew he…

My first dog bite!
To be honest I was going to skip posting today because I was busy taking care of Tabitha’s dog, working on the Comedy for a Cure auction and other errands. I decided to go for a walk at 5:30 pm instead of writing a post because I have really been enjoying how beautiful it is…
Have I been grumpy?
Apparently I have been grumpy and very uptight according to my sweet husband, Lou. I’m not sure if I totally believe him or not BUT when your significant other of almost 28 years makes a declaration about your mood, I have learned to listen, ponder and consider the thought that he might be right.

Did I fail?
Last Saturday was my first official book signing and if you judged the event by the number of books I sold, signed or new people I met, it was a complete and total flop!!! Who showed up? My Family. Tabitha, Trinity, Chandler, Sophia (Trinity’s friend), Grandma Cindy and my best friend Laura. Lou was working…
Are you afraid to talk about dying?
This is a very taboo subject but I think about it almost daily when I browse my social media feeds. I don’t consider myself a morose person, but death is something I think about often because it is everywhere. You can’t watch the news, listen to the radio or browse social media without hearing about…
