So, as most of you know, I took Tiara to the fair yesterday. It was super humid and hot but I decided to forge ahead and follow through with my plan. At 3:30 Trinity and I loaded up the car, with 15 cans of food because every person who brought in 5 cans before…

Do we dare try again?
It is fair time again, and yes my family loves the fair. Tabitha and Trinity actually ride all the frightening crazy rides designed for adrenaline junkies. Apparently my girls get this from Louie because I feel sick just watching the rides and can’t be persuaded to ride anything at the fair. I am…
Re-entry is always hard…
So I am forgoing my normal Monday post , My Journey with Tiara, as I am way too emotionally and physically tired, to rehash Tiara’s past medical history. In addition, that post always takes me several hours to write and I don’t have several hours to spare today as I am having 11 people…
I hate your face!
I bet you have never heard the expression, “I hate your face,” until today. Well in our household it is a very common expletive that Tiara yells to different people throughout the day at least 20 times, starting first thing in the morning. When we first heard it we couldn’t help but laugh because…
A memorable 4th of July…
I was thinking about what I wanted to write today and the memory of me at 11 years old on the 4th of July, kept coming to mind over and over again, so I decided why not share what a freak I was. I grew up in Newport Shores across the street from the…
How can you not know what size you wear?
My husband Lou has been wearing the same size clothing for the past 10 years and yet he still can’t remember what size he wears. Lou and I have a long complicated history in regards to his wardrobe. When we met he only shopped at Nordstrom’s. He had a credit card from his parents…
Where is all my stuff?
If you have a teenager living with you, you understand the title of this post. Where is my stuff? Why is it that teenagers are smart enough to find everything they need of YOURS but can NEVER remember how to put anything back where it belongs? Hummmm. I guess they “just forgot”to return it…
Tiara gets a beach day!
Just so you know, Tiara has not been swimming in a pool in 3 years. She absolutely loves to swim, but if you bring her around a pool she will just jump in whether she has a suit on or not and despite the fact that she doesn’t know how to swim. After years…
Everyone just leave me alone…
I am having one of those days again and I just want everyone to get the hell out of my house and leave me alone. That would be heaven, so rude of me, but true. I dream of the day my house stays clean all day, no one complains they are bored, no one…
The best thing about Dad’s…
How cute is my Dad? So cute, love the tie and the aviators. Sometimes I think women today don’t realize the importance of men and Father’s in their children’s lives. So many women work, take care of the kids and even more, to the point where they forget that kids need Dads and…
