When the Boomerang Comes Back – DUCK!

Almost everyone has done it. You break up. You try to find someone else, get interested in new hobbies, and spend more times with friends and family. But you see him out. You miss her.

Juggling Multiples

No, I don’t mean babies! Or even dogs! I know there’s a reason God did not give me twins or dare I say…more? (Since I am uterus-less I can dare to say it). It was nothing short of pure mercy – more for the hypothetical children. However, I am an excellent multi-tasker. I can create […]

Fear Is a Big Jerk

At 46 I am past my childbearing years, especially since I had a hysterectomy almost 4 years ago. That lack of uterus is the pesky detail that slammed the door shut on any further adventures in that arena. Many women would be devastated by an earlier than typical hysterectomy, but at the time my son […]

My baby is live in the Kindle store! It’s not pink or blue, but teal and red, and it’s not exactly cute, but to me it’s the most beautiful book on Amazon.com.  Writing a book, and getting it out into the world is truly a labor of love. Emphasizing the labor part. It’s an […]
