I have been writing this blog for one month now. When I started posting last month, I had no idea my journey with Tiara was heading for this direction. I sensed her agitation was increasing, I saw more daily seizures, I felt the increased pinching and hair pulling but I was hopeful that our lives…
my thoughts about life
I know how I will die…..
I know this sounds rather morbid but it is something I think of often while driving around town with Tiara. I envision myself driving when I am suddenly struck in the head with a flying object, my head hits the steering wheel, my car careens off the road and it crashes into a telephone…
It’s raining, it’s pouring….
But my Tulips are blooming!!! It is almost Spring, only 2 more days….. Have a peaceful Sunday…
How tired do I look?
Well, I feel super tired and judging by the red squiggly lines in my eyes, I look how I feel. Looks like I have been drinking wine already today, but oh, it is only 9am. I never drink until after 5pm, but I already look like crap and the day has hardly started for normal…
the broken violin….
Somedays there is a lot of crying in our home. Yesterday was one of those days. Trinity started practicing her violin, with an instrument on loan from school. As she ran out to show me how she was improving, she put the bow on the couch so she could find the correct page in the music…
Top 5 signs your parental “cheering” has gotten out of control…
Well, it is Saturday and most of us with children have been out on the fields, poolside or in the gym watching our kids play one or more sports today. Each event has its own cheering protocol. I hear tennis is a very civilized sport, as no one screams during the matches. Clearly you…
bag lady gets Prius…..
Well I received a very surprising gift for my anniversary, a new Prius!!! I have gotten rather annoyingly “green” over the years and I have been begging Louie for this car. Just so you know, my husband only likes me to drive Mercedes -Benz’s because they are so safe and he has either been selling…
got laundry?
Well, this huge mound of clothes covering my entire sectional is a common scene in my home. I have issues with laundry. All of my children wear several outfits each day and Tiara loves to change her clothes approximately 5 to 8 times per day. As a result the laundry is daunting and I don’t…
it’s leap year and finally my anniversary…
I mean who gets married on leap year? ME. I thought it was especially fitting since I proposed to my husband on a dare, one month shy of my 22nd birthday. I know, I know, it is a true miracle we are still married. We were discussing our future plans and I basically said…
diy… do it yourself..
Well, I am the epitome of a do it yourself” kinda gal, or so I like to think. I am of the opinion I can construct, configure, redo, reprogram most things myself with time and patience. Last year our DVD broke and when I went to buy a new one the options were limitless and…
