The One Where I Stare at the TV

Posted in The Everyday on June 28, 2008 | 1 Comment »

Yeah, I’m pretty worthless. I managed to waste another day in front of the tv. The boys are missing again, and I have a mouse loose in the living room. He taunted me today by climbing the curtains right in front of me, not once, but THREE times. The last time I retrieved a sleeping [...]

Comps Begone!

Posted in The Everyday on June 26, 2008 | 4 Comments »

I am done! I have to take a 5-week class and I will officially hold in my hands a Master of Education diploma from Auburn University. Forty-three days and counting! I really want to know why I’m not supposed to be there in Auburn. Every time I go there I come home refreshed and inspired, [...]

Mea Culpa

Posted in I'll never learn., It's About the Heart, The Children, tagged , , , , , , on June 23, 2008 | 1 Comment »

God is going to get good and tired of me railing on Him when crap goes wrong. But apparently He is in a good mood at the moment, and somebody has been praying for me HARD. In the midst of my grief over losing not one, but four kittens in one day, I said some [...]

House of Pain

Posted in The Everyday on June 21, 2008 | 1 Comment »

Tonight my house is filled with sorrow.
Minnie is gone. The only thing I can imagine happening is that she got picked off by a hawk or a dog. There’s no body, neighbors haven’t seen her. I never heard a sound, although I should have been worried when I got up to pee before 7 and [...]

I Got TAGGED!

Flea the Clever and Pretty tagged me HARD, people. I love memes cuz they’re USUALLY easy posts. This on? Not so much. This one’ll be tough, but I’ll give it a go.
Eight Things I Have a Passion For:

Songwriting
My faith (even though I’m a HUGE slacker)

Sweet Tea

Happy Birthday, Mama

Posted in Just Thinking, The Children, tagged , , , on June 20, 2008 | 1 Comment »

Today my mother would have been 73 years old, had she made it this far. When I was a kid, I used to wonder why she never seemed to be bothered by my cuts and scrapes and falls and such. It bothered me until I realized I’m a raging hypochondriac of sorts, so no wonder. [...]

SHHHH! Don’t Jinx It…

Posted in The Everyday on June 16, 2008 | 2 Comments »

You’d think that if a kitten was born in your kitchen, raised by his mother in your bedroom, and fed by you on a regular basis, there would have been some point at which you tamed the darned thing so he would let you touch him. You’d think that, wouldn’t you. Heh. I guess I [...]

Not That It Matters…

Posted in Hair-pulling practice, The Children on June 15, 2008 | 1 Comment »

I often wonder at what point I became an intolerable whiner. I have recognized my tendencies for a long time, and while I try to change, it seems to be ingrained behavior. I am easily irritated and completely impatient with stupidity, which means I’m irritated a LOT. Little things really get under my skin. It [...]

Friday’s Redemption

Posted in The Everyday on June 14, 2008 | 1 Comment »

While Friday the 13th hasn’t been terrific for everybody else, it ended an otherwise craptastic week for me on a rather sedated note. That right there is enough reason for celebration. If y’all will allow it, I’ll keep it short and sweet. K?

What I Seem to Forget

Posted in Hair-pulling practice, Movin' Right Along, tagged , , on June 11, 2008 | 1 Comment »

Things will work out the way they are supposed to be. I forget that I have no debt on this house, that I can rent it if need be. When I talked to the realtor today about backing out of the house deal, she completely understood, and reassured me that stuff happens all the time. [...]
