The sun is just coming up, the only sound is the sound of coffee brewing. The smell of pumpkin spice coffee is slowly filling the air. I remember these mornings eighteen years ago and how sacred they were. Soon the house would be filled with tiny voices, baby cries and the morning news. There are no more tiny voices and baby cries, and who watches the news anymore? I've always said time is an

I have been attacked, called horrible names, told that vaccines are 100% safe. To you, listen carefully!!! Vaccines are not 100% safe, vaccines injure and kill. Are you listening? Mainstream media will not report these stories because the CDC and the pharmaceutical companies are not paying them to. WAKE the FUCK up people!!! That was a draft written in 2017.... Now it's 2023 and so many

One thing I always loved was dinner with my kids. All of us sitting around, eating, talking, laughing. There is nothing better. Last night was no different, well, other than the fact it was only the two youngest. We started talking about how G moved out, the girl is moving out next week, and then T said something and it made me realize there is no stopping change. He said the other night he

We did it, the baby graduated and we all survived. Getting four kids through high school is a lot. Add a "plandemic" in there and let me tell you, it was brutal. T lost his freshman and sophmore year due to the ignorance and fear of others. He made it through though. He went from never wanting to leave the house to roller blading with friends to having a girlfriend and graduating with straight

I listen to a couple podcast, I'd like to listen to more so if you have any recommendation let me know. So as I was saying, I listen to a couple podcast and I listened to one where Alona Pulde M.D. and Matthew Lederman M.D were guest. They wrote the popular book Knives over Forks. But they were on to talk about their book Wellness to Wonderful. And I swear I heard the word authenticity one

These photos are from some old floppy disks or is it discs? Either way, these photos are from 2002..We were three and done for sure when these photos were taken, isn't that funny? I look back on these and I'm blown away at how much I don't really remember about this time in my life. I don't like to think I was in survival mode because I wasn't, these were the happily ever years. I think I was

Well, on Saturday June 23rd, it was stolen from his gated apartment complex. I am so mad!! Why are people such pieces of shit humans? WHY? If it's not yours you don't take it. It's not that fucking hard! He works so hard for his money and someone else just came and took his joy. So not cool. I know we will never see it again and that sucks for him. This was the bike he laid down on the 101 and

G put his air-soft gear up for sale. A while later he was contacted by a guy wanting to trade. What did this guy have to trade you wonder, well, a 1989 motorcycle. Of course he texted his dad about it asking for an opinion before ever talking to me about it. But let's back up a bit....when we were looking for a car for him he mentioned several times that he wanted a motorcycle. I would just

We are all screaming and nobody is listening. Everyone has their opinion and sometimes they get rude, down right mean, really. It saddens me that tragedy can bring out hatred for someone. Someone that just sees things differently than you, is that a reason to be rude and disrespectful. Well well well.. this was written on 2/18/2018... it sure did age well, didn't it?

So I am going to be posting all my drafts. I saw the title and thought I'd open it to some photos I had forgotten about or a funny story but no...just a blank page. How I wish I could share some photos but this was 6 years ago. They went with their grandparents and uncle. From what I remember they had a great time. I am sure one of them got sunburned, and it wouldn't be a vacation with my boys

Just like this blog, left all alone in 2017. Why did I stop writing, sharing here? I can think of only one answer, life was hard...so hard. I was dealing with so much that I didn't want to share with anyone. I knew if I started writing all of it would spill onto the keyboard. I wrote some but never hit published, maybe one day I will. It might make an interesting book, or not. The Fun Family

I've been doing this mothering thing a long time. Not as long as some but longer than others. I am still no expert and I am still learning, 21 years ago I became a mom and I am still learning. I will admit tough love is not one of my strengths, but when it needs to be applied I reach deep and I tough love the shit out of my kids. Do I always get it right, hell no, but my batting average is pretty

I've taken care of a lot children in my life, it's what I do, it's who I am. I never want to brag but I know I'm good at loving babies,toddlers, children. Every child is a gift and should be treated as if. Every time a parent trusts me with their child(ren) I feel so blessed. It's the greatest gift anyone can be given. These parents trust me with their child, ME!! It's the biggest, most

This marks the last first day of school for G. How in the world is he a senior already? He has an easy yet challenging year ahead of him. He has four classes at the school so he's done for the day at lunch. The challenging part happens two days a week when he has Fire Science at the community college for 3 hours each day. I work until 3pm and Dub needs a ride home at 2:15. We need a miracle of

My favorite part of this celebration was having my favorite cousin join us. We don't see him often enough, so him making it out to Vegas in middle of the week really meant a lot. Even though he's my cousin he's Uncle Dave to my kids. He's the fun uncle, he's that uncle every kid deserves to grow up with. I regret not getting more photos of everyone but I really was in the moment. I was

At some point during the night the girl was asked what she wanted to do next. Of course it involved a wall she saw on our way back from dinner and a photo. We stopped and asked a security guard if he knew where this certain wall was and luckily he did. What we didn't know is that he sent us down a street that led us directly to a very scary part of town. As we were taking photos we saw a woman

I still have to share the boys' trip to Hawaii but first our trip to Vegas. We stayed at The Grand Downtown. I would recommend staying there though there were some things I missed. The water pressure sucks, the only disappointing thing, really. There was no pen or pad of paper in the room. Is it weird that I notice that? Well, I like to leave hidden messages when I stay somewhere so I noticed.

I have been called some ridiculous names over the last few days. Lots of you even want my children to die. What kind of person wants a child to die? I will not stop fighting for the right of medical freedom. One must have the right to not inject the long list of toxins vaccines contain into their children. All this injected into a child, that follows the current vaccine schedule, before the

Do you think they look alike now that Dub has cut his hair? I didn't see it but now I do. Dub has my Grandpa's nose, which is a lot like my brother's nose. G's nose is his dads nose. Other than their noses I see so much similarity. I took these quick snaps to compare and let me tell you I really need to take photos of these kids more often. They are still changing so much, and I wonder

Regarding my post about vaccines, I think a lot of people missed my point. My point was we need to fight against mandatory medicine. We need to fight for our freedom of choice. Vaccines come with risks, I wish I would have been informed of these risks before I blindly trusted someone to inject me with any vaccine. It says right on the MMR insert that it's unsure of the safety for nursing mothers

It's been four years since he cut his hair, FOUR years.. His hair has become something of it's own. It's a conversation starter, it's beautiful, it's longer than mine and the girl's. Well it was longer..... As I watched his hair fall to the ground I gasped.....I couldn't breathe....I am being completely serious, it was dramatic. He kept giggling as more hair fell. That's when I knew he

We love Target. I started taking photos of our trips to Target back in 2008. I believe our first trip documented was the one where T decided to throw a tantrum. Still some of my favorite photos but I must say as my kids grow the better the photos. They still love to humor me. Even our extended family knows the camera is along for most Target trips..... What I didn't expect is how fun
