So often I see something happen in society and then I can’t get it out of my heart and mind for days and sometimes even weeks at a time. This is one of those times. I saw this unfold about 2 weeks ago and I continue to see this scene in my mind at least…

The wife of a salesman…
Ohhh, I forgot what it was like being the wife of a commission only sales consultant. UGH! I now remember why I was so happy when he finally became a manager fourteen years ago. When you are a manager you make a percentage of everything sold, so even if the dealership has a slow month…
“Your daughter is so beautiful”…
The other day I walked into my favorite beauty supply to grab some quick dry for my nails. I was really in the mood to get a manicure and pedicure but knew I shouldn’t spend the money so instead I went and bought the quick dry drops, so I had a hope of nails lasting…
Where have I been?
If you are a regular reader you probably noticed I didn’t post Thursday or Friday last week. In the past if I skipped a post it was usually because I was beyond busy. This time I wasn’t over the top busy or on vacation, I just didn’t feel like posting. But Why? As much as…
Why are girls so mean?
I just dropped Trinity off at gymnastics and once again was shocked by how mean little girls can be. We were waiting for the class to start when a tiny little girl about 4 years old started doing hand stands against the pillar (Let’s call her girl A). Another girl about 6 years old joined…
What a way to wake up….
Tuesday morning I woke up earlier than I wanted because I heard Lou moving around in the kitchen. He squeaked in the door the night before just as I was falling asleep so I wanted to spend some time with him before he left for work. I walked into the kitchen to start the coffee…
The fair and my palm reading
Thursday morning I woke up at 4am again and couldn’t get back to sleep. So once again I got up and started getting stuff done. Mostly preparing all our food for the day, which takes more time than I could have ever anticipated but it seems to be working and helping so I am really…
We’re on a new eating program at the Goff house!
As most of you know I have to be constantly engaged in a project or I go stir crazy. Since my house is still in a holding mode, I can’t obsess on any home improvements, moving plans or the garden so I have decided to focus on the way we eat. I love eating healthy…
I just didn’t know!
I literally hate this phrase more than any other phrase in the English language. In my mind when someone says “they didn’t know” I always think “How could you not know?” My thoughts then start racing. “Don’t you care enough to know? Don’t you value learning this imp0rtant skill or quality? Are you just lazy…
Why are people wearing pajamas in public?
Maybe I’m old fashioned in the dressing department but can someone please tell me how it has become acceptable for grown adults to wear pajamas out in public? Of course I can accept cute little kids in the bagel store or on a morning run to the market in their pj’s and can almost understand…
