The great thing about living in today's world is how quickly you can gain information. The bad thing about living in today's world is how quickly we can become stupid. If you are like me, you might join random groups on social media that seem interesting. Maybe it is...

I am convinced that Satan has taken Mother Nature hostage or maybe they are in cahoots. Messing with us, as it is October 1 and I am still experiencing boob sweat. You know I'm right. The thought of cooler weather makes me want to bundle up. I dream of chili,...

Last week was a shit show with fireworks, so you can only imagine that I was itching for some fun. A release with no worries. On Saturday, we headed to Bowling Green for Parent's Weekend at WKU. The irony is that we would not be spending time with our son. He had to...

I am not one to chat it up on my cell phone while casually walking around a store. First, I think it is rude to yammer on in public. Second, it is distracting, and I can't remember items that I need to purchase. Plus, it's 2019, I prefer to text. Anyway, the people in...

The only way to describe this week would be to say it was cloudy with a 100 percent chance of a shit storm. However, the last two days have been quiet. (Knock on wood). The dogs are stable and my mother seems to be acclimating to her new caregiver - you know - the one...

My experience dictates that when I am on an emotional overload, I look to food as a comforting tool. I am not one of those asshats that "loses" their appetites when stressed or sad. Nope. I like to seek out food that will make me forget. Even if it is just for a...

This week has been heavy with emotion, so it has been important for me to find the humor. I mean, if I don't laugh, I will simply melt into a puddle of despair. Let's chat about diapers for dogs. Both of my Bassets are experiencing various levels of sickness. Because...
