I am sure that I am not alone. I am positive that when I share this tidbit of transparency, many of you will raise your hands as a form of unity. When my family members boarded their plan on Friday, I made a promise to myself. I pledged that I would get some shit...
Plans
Plans. I love making them. I love navigating them. Do you know what I don't love? I don't love when they explode and then I have to start all over with new ones. This week has been an adjustment. Luna, our canine family member, started training school where we hope...
First Day
Luna had her first day of canine training yesterday. She barked all the way there and I am pretty sure I am deaf in the right ear now. When we walked into the training facility, the guy checking us in called her "crazy pants". She already has a nickname and it's...
Out of the Loop
You know the moments where you look at your kids and wonder how they are fully operational? I have those a lot. Since the Pandemic has wiped out Bailey's entire world, he has been hibernating in his domain, which is our basement. He's got a nice setup that gives him a...
Trainable
Look at that picture of Luna. Doesn't she look sweet? My favorite part of the day is when she is exhausted. True story. It has been a while since we have had a dog with such high energy. We had two Basset hounds prior that have since passed away, and they only showed...

I am in the mode of avoidance. My manuscript to my second book is waiting to be revised as I just received it back from my editor. It's taunting me. I know that I need to address it, but, for now, I will simply write my blog and hope for divine inspiration. For those...
Included
Today is World Down Syndrome day and it makes sense that my blog revolves around my favorite individual with an extra something special. My oldest son, Bailey has Trisomy 21, the bonus chromosome that makes him undeniably unique. This celebration was created as a...
The Shit Show
This week has been shitty......literally. My 89-year-old mother's sixty-year-old cast iron piping decided it had enough and decided to shit all over her basement. New piping was installed and today there is a professional cleaning crew coming so we can get the stench...
Eye Candy
I am positive that no one is immune to the perils of social media unless you are not even participating. If that is the case, good for you. You have escaped the random creepy guy messages that pop up offering some pretty attractive deals. Now, my experience has been...
Differently
I can't believe that we have been dealing with this pandemic for a year. It has been a challenging, yet an eye-opening universal pause. If I had known that the social norms of society were going to evaporate and that we would no longer be allowed to embrace or even...
