Tomorrow is the last night of 2017 and I hope everyone has safe and fun plans in the mix!  The boyfriend and I are going to use our Gift Certificate for Outback and enjoy a night out for the two of us.  I know anyone with children knows how hard it can be to spend…

“There is a fire inside of this heart And a riot about to explode into flames” – Featuring Sexy Princess

My mind is a complete blank today and I really can’t find anything I really want to talk about today, so I am going to pull out an older song, that happens to be a favorite, and to set the mood for your weekend!  I say that with a bit of a wink and a…

Life happens while you are making plans – Featuring Ashmoot

In the last twenty four hours our entire lives have changed as the youngest, who graduated in June, decided to leave home all of the sudden and move down to Phoenix.  Most parents have a bit of notice and some time to get used to the idea of their children going to college or moving…

Be the Light – Featuring Virtual Diva

  You’ve got to be one that, wherever you are, like a flower, you’ve got to blossom where you’re planted. You cannot eliminate darkness. You cannot banish it by cursing darkness. The only way to get rid of darkness is light and to be the light yourself. Cory Booker Halloween is tomorrow night, which means…

Even a sinner stops to pray from time to time – Featuring Petit Chat, Moondance Boutique and more!

Earlier this week I went for my mammogram and once again they scheduled the 3D mammogram for today, and discussions between the Radiologist and the surgeon have already started, which of course has me a little pensive.  Whenever that happens a certain song starts to roll through my head; so since I don’t have much…

The Black Swan’s Song – Featuring Virtual Diva, Petit Chat, Truth, Uber, Swank, Dead Dollz, Project Se7en

Due to circumstances beyond my control with my health lately, I have been unable to post as much as I would have liked.  As I sit here tonight with time on my hands for the first time in a bit I can’t seem to come up with a witty story or anecdote.  Two and a…

Just a simple country girl at heart – Featuring Emberotic’s Fashion Designs and Hudson’s Clothing Company

Since Fall seems to have skipped over northern Arizona, my mind has been drifting back home to the southern Midwest, where I fell in love with Autumn. The sun filled days, with a bit of a soft breeze on the air that happens to have a bit more of a chill in it than August;…

Locked up tight! Featuring Petit Chat, Powder Pack and Truth

The last 24 hours have proven to be the most stressful we have had in months, but at least this time it wasn’t all negative stress!  Since yesterday morning we have found out I need to have heart surgery before Christmas, my son’s ultrasound was inexplicably moved up to today, my other half got a…

The start of a beautiful romance – Featuring IT! and Dafnis

Lately I have been absolutely appalled at the body shaming and self hate that I have seen all over my Facebook page and other social media sites and I have become to question almost everything.  How far we have really come as a human race when HATE seems to be the prevailing emotion?  Where did…

“Mirror, mirror on the wall Who’s the baddest of them all?” Madonna – Featuring K-tarsis, Truth, Glam Affair, Emberotic’s Fashion Designs

I don’t know if the rest of you parents are free yet, but school has started here in northern Arizona and I am finally free from one of the teens!  Yay!  But the one who graduated in June is still tagging along as I come into town, and we continue to have appointments with docs…

“Shower me with your love, all of every day.” – Featuring Petit Chat and Truth

Today is one of those days that apparently my heart just wants to march to the beat of it’s own drummer, with no rhyme or reason, at least not that I can find!  And as usual it has me in a bit of an odd mood, but not a bad one, more like playful and…

“Maybe sometimes we feel afraid, but it’s alright The more you stay the same, the more they seem to change. Don’t you think it’s strange”

For the past couple of weeks it feels like I have had very little time to recharge my batteries with all the running around for the boys and I for doctors and insurance, and trying to coordinate the work on our home, which is STILL in complete disarray. The four of us have been sharing…
