It’s not my fault. I mean, it is my fault that she’s so awesome…after all, I raised her! What I mean is it’s not my fault that this is yet another “all about her” post. It’s her fault. She harasses me constantly until I cave. She’s always liked the attention. Where do I even begin?? … Continue reading SuperDaughter!!

In February 2024, … Continue reading This is the Story of a Girl…Who is Not OK
I Miss Baseball
America’s pastime. No, baseball hasn’t gone anywhere. It’s still there, in big cities and small towns. It’s me that’s strayed. As my NA friends often say, we have to live life on life’s terms. Mine has been a busy clusterf*ck over the past year, and it’s got me feeling some kind of way. I’m reminiscing … Continue reading I Miss Baseball
One Damn Year
How is this even real? One year ago, I sat with my Mom watching Family Feud, or “the Steve Harvey” as she called it. She ate pork chops and pierogis and told me how she wanted to go to the club on Saturday. She was disappointed when I told her that we did not have … Continue reading One Damn Year

It Came Just the Same
Christmas looks a little different this year. It’s the first without my mom. I’m going through the motions, but if we’re being honest, I haven’t really found that Christmas spirit this year. So much of the magic of Christmastime for me is wrapped up in my mom. I don’t know how she ever found the … Continue reading It Came Just the Same
Oh How Time Flies
It’s December already. It seems impossible. So much happened this year, and clearly time waits for no one or nothing. The months seem to be whizzing by faster and faster. At the beginning of last week, I reminded myself that I needed to write something for November. Then life got in the way and before … Continue reading Oh How Time Flies
Tiny Bestie 💕
See, what had happened was…. MY DAUGHTER HAD A BABY!!! Skeeter, my first grandchild, was born in September. She stole my heart the moment she entered the world, and I’ve been wrapped around her tiny finger ever since. She is the most perfect little angel, and I could not be happier to be her grandma. … Continue reading Tiny Bestie 💕
The Curse of the 19th
Technology can be an amazing, wonderful thing. It can also be the bane of my existence. Such was the case last month, and apparently again today. On June 19th, I walked into work only to discover that CDK was down. For those that don’t know, CDK is the operating system used by over 15,000 car … Continue reading The Curse of the 19th
We all need a little Jesus…
Even in the midst of the most diverse crowd, Jesus is there. I follow a pastor from a small town in South Carolina on Facebook and Instagram. He popped up on my feed one day, and it was like a lightning strike to my spirit. I felt an immediate connection to him and the message … Continue reading We all need a little Jesus…
