So the boys and I sat down and they wanted me to rent a movie for them tonight. A spent the night (my nephew) again and they wanted to see The Day The Earth Stood Still.

random tuesday: being sick, losing a child, and loving our children with disabilities, many blessings


Random Tuesday, something I love. Why? Because being random is like my biggest thing. I often get accused of jumping around with my thoughts which is something that pisses Corky off regularly, maybe why I do it, I don't know. I can't really help it. I just get a thought and speak it. I don't really stop to think about it. It's more like my mouth...

monday mumbers: being sick


3,245 times I got up to pee in the middle of the night because of coughing too hard and my bladder decided it would malfunction every three minutes. 200 cough candies I've eaten in the past four days. 1 cup of Neo I drank which tasted like warm pee left outside in the sun for too long. Not that I know what warm pee tastes like lmao. 5,273 times...

woman accused of throwing her kids off a bridge.


I will never understand it. No matter how many times I hear about it, read about it or watch it on the news. All these stories of parents hurting their children in some violent manner, just floors me. I will never get it. I look at the boys and I think about how vulnerable they are, fragile and trusting in both Corky and me. Why shouldn't they...

friday frustrations: i hate being sick!


It's Friday and my frustrations are above and beyond words. Well -- okay not totally beyond words. I'm never beyond words, no matter what state I'm in LOL. I've been sick for about four days now. It started as a runny nose, then moved into both ears (which I hate) and then into my eyes and finally--it's gone into my chest. I decided that today...

kris allen wins american idol!


WAY TO GO KRIS! OMG! I could not believe it when Ryan read the name out. I was so thrilled, shocked and totally happy to see Kris win American Idol, and not just because I predicted it which I totally did. Hollywood week I said to Corky,.. "he is going to win this." I don't know why I thought that, I mean I had my favorites. But there was just...

friday frustrations: people


One thing I can't stand is when people lie. I mean it's hard enough to force ourselves to be honest with ourselves about shit in our lives. Why do people have to lie to make it even worse? I've been working at home, taking calls from customers for my brothers business. I have to set up appointments, take their name, number, time they wish to book...

random tuesday: pickleboy, charity,


My weekend was horrible. I have to tell you. I found out dad lost his job. I love my father and to see how hard he's worked his entire life, never giving anything to himself, just to us kids and my mother all these years. It was awful watching him break-down after getting laid off simply because of his age and the fact he made more money than...

We have an election coming up and of course as always it's depressing. Who to vote for? They are all idiots in my mind and it doesn't really matter, does it? Well this morning my mother-in-law sent me something in my inbox which is the only reason I like Monday's, because for all of you who know I truly do actually hate them lol. Christy Clark...

happy mothers day!


Okay so I had to do this post. I mean it's Mother's Day and I AM after all a mother. One of the things about living with Corky and his brain injury is the fact that whenever holidays come around he (forgets). It's really not his fault. I mean secretly of course I blame him, but only because the kids aren't old enoough to remind him, and he's my...

friday frustrations: the crack life


Finally! A meme I can sink my teeth into. I mean who doesn't get frustrated? Especially if you are a parent, running on no sleep, waiting for that moment your eyes decided they've had enough and you can no longer walk because your legs are jell-o and... oh wait I'm already bitching aren't I? My bad. Friday Frustrations is a cool meme you can...

freaky friday: my son is now ten!


I’m not really sure how it happened. I mean it’s not like I woke up one day and decided, today is the day I’m going to discover that I’m getting older. Today is the day I will open my eyes and see my retina’s are slightly cloudier than usual, my body aches in places I had yet to learn about and that my children, my babies are no longer babies but...

There is quite the age gap between them, but this image reflects their love for each other and their bond of brotherly toughne...

the many faces of me


Often my husband accuses me of putting other people first, before myself. I don't think of myself that way. I love the people in my life, and caring for them, doing for them, sharing with them is something that is as much a part of myself as the stubborn traits I was born with. It cannot be helped. However, I decided to take a real look at myself....
