It would be the most incredible occurrence in life; however, the timing is completely wrong. How can something so wonderful be considered so very wrong? Well, there are many things in this life that if they would have happened in another time or place – they would be celebrated, announced …
Last night I spent a great deal of time speaking with a very handsome man. I had wondered if he had interest or if he was seeking conversation with someone other than his travel mate. We spoke of past relationships, where we are now, the B-52’s and photography. It was …
Recently someone told me that our relationship was ‘temporary’. I had to do everything I could to remain calm; however, after I had that not always taken ‘time-to-think’…. I realized how true that was. Life has a way of showing us just how ‘expendable’ we are. We all know that …
With the entire December album of George Winston playing in the background I write this. Thanksgiving being the first song. The holiday itself is about sharing, time with family and taking your stomach to task. As I listen to George display his talent, I wonder about my ‘special purpose’ as …
Some love comes in an instant, whereas, other love comes in time. I’m living a fairy tale, there are no swords, or castles – it’s the 2 of us, together enjoying one another with zero drama. We watch a few couples in the neighborhood endure police interaction, other suitors and …
His smile…I recall a time as I drove up, he smiled. It wasn’t huge, it was genuine and true – just as he is. Watching him think before he speaks or as he is recalling something… his words have meaning. Despite success, he’s humble – no need for false bravado! …
It’s near impossible for a woman to rely on another without looking needy. It goes without saying that we, as people need one another in different capacities; however, let’s really look at this: When getting to know someone you have that excitement period that literally has no time limit; however, …
Growing up I pretty much had to have whatever I wanted – right then. Waiting was not in my repertoire. I had many options, avenues & adventures and I can assure you that whatever I wanted to do – I did or was in the midst of doing. It was …
It has been ages since I’ve made the time to post and while I would love to say that I’ve been on some lavish cruise, the truth of the matter is… I simply have not had much to write about. Sure, there have been experiences; however, none worth sharing. There …
All kidding aside I’ve taken a moment or many to think about where I am and why it is that on most weekends I am spending time at home, alone with my puppies. Yes, I want to share special moments with one person; however, I find that I desire that …
It’s hard to put into words what has recently come to light; however, a blog is the perfect place in which to try. Although the word serious can take on many levels of interpretation, the use of the word in regard to personal relationships is what I am writing about …
It had been on my mind; however, was it the person or the action that caused me angst? When I started to go into it… it became evident that I was not looking at the person, I was recalling the action of another. Shame on me! I try to keep …
No, I did not endure the countless hours of medical school; however, I must admit that my dating experiences have earned me the right to claim the title. I would venture to guess that I have dealt with more a$$holes than a Proctologist at a Free Clinic. It’s not all …
This morning while getting ready I caught a few minutes of The Recruit with Al Pacino…more or less the movie is about the training of CIA Agents and the twists and turns are constant. First you think that Layla really did get cut from the school only to realize that it was …
It’s never easy when you meet someone new to really ‘know’ what it is that they are thinking. Yes, you can ask; however, there are certain situations in which that state of unknown is sort of appealing. I’ve never been one to play hard to get or coy, when it …
I’ll see him when he gets out of jail! Who knew that someone I could feel so connected to would be in jail? We’ve spent countless hours on the phone and with each call it is more exciting than the last! In many ways I feel as if I’ve known …
If dating was setup like the Girl Scouts….I would have recently earned my WTF Were You Thinking Badge! I would have had it a few days ago; however, my recent text exchange with Mr. Cute solidified it. For moments, OK, days I toiled with his comment… We would have been …
As we end the month of July… it became abundantly clear to me… I need to separate from Mr. Cute… I sent the text again and this time low & behold I received a reply… and it was a fueled one too… he had finally shared a few pieces of …
Truth be told, I left a few things at Mr. Cute’s… as I was removing most of my stuff to just give him a little room; however, it’s been 2 weeks and a day since we’ve spoken and I’ve come to terms with his unique way of saying he’s done. This was …
I’ve been going through the process… can’t really call it a break-up process, because the crux of not talking with one another makes it near impossible to know what is really going on. This forces one to just decide on their own… not an ideal situation, but, since we are …

Life has a way of working out, despite the pain you feel I thought that I had met the one, in truth he wasn’t real He had the right outer core and there were some nuggets held within But, when faced with certain situations, he held it all close in …
If you’ve ever had a few minutes, I strongly encourage you to check out the Personals Section on Craigslist NOT TO FIND YOUR MATE… I came across these out of curiosity as I was looking for a lawnmower… WOW! If you ever wondered where the Serial Killers of the World …
How on earth could someone stick & stay so tightly to their position? Simple, they are aware of their boundaries. For over a week I’ve been blathering on about how Mr. Cute has stated: “I don’t want to talk.” He never truly wavered on this and any conversation was short …
I have a pretty good overall demeanor, most that have met me sense that I am independent, capable, intelligent and kind; however, it has been said more than once that they would never want to cross me. I say that because that is what I’ve been told and in truth, …
I took a stand, sort of….after 5 days of no-contact (our schedule was daily) I felt that I should collect my ‘stuff’ at Mr. Cute’s place. I decided to do it, so that I would not have the urge to get something I needed. He had said that he didn’t …
By now I should realize that all of the thinking, worrying and fear will inevitably be for nothing… irrespective of the outcome all of this time spent has absolutely no benefit. I am driving myself crazy and for what purpose… since I am keeping my things to myself, well, with …
I will be the first one to admit that I have a cell phone and it provides me a lot of convenience; however, I will also say that by having a cell phone it ties me down to the expectation that I am always reachable. Irrespective of the ‘advances’ in …
We have not broken up; however, I have found myself in ‘giving him space’ mode… this time, he did not ask for it, yet, his treatment definitely warranted an out. I’ve been absolutely thrilled about this man because he is different, an against the grain type gent; however, one of his …
For many Friday signifies the end of the work week; however, let’s give it up to those that trudge on through what many of us consider the weekend! For me, it starts my time with Mr. Cute! We’ve been overly steady with our weekend time…. I get over to his …
In today’s world it appears that women insist on being independent; however, I think that it’s been taken a little too far. I’ve been guilty of this as well; however, no longer. I do need others and more importantly I want others in my life. I have my family that …
Depending on where you live you’ve probably encountered a Canada Goose…perhaps you’ve been on the receiving end of their all too well-known protective nature, but, irrespective of the interaction I am sure you know a little about them. Here’s what I admire most about the Canada Goose….they mate for life. Yes, …
I’ve learned a valuable lesson recently and I definitely know that it is something that some women know all too well; however, I would venture to guess at the number of blog posts that MOST women do not have a clue as to what I am going to share….. When …
I’ve written several posts that are either about or mention Mr. Cute; however, it should be said that although he has become a central subject in my writings.. his position in my life is as a part, not as a whole. I enjoy writing about various experiences of which he …
There’s always such a clamor to be first! In racing, no one ever says I want to be last. The focus has always been on #1 as we all know what #2 is. Yet, when it comes to matters of the heart… being first is rarely ever the goal. I know that …
In a recent discussion with my Beau I joked that I was jealous; however, in truth he’s never given me an ounce in which to worry or be truly jealous about. As always we had a wonderful conversation, filled with equal listening and sharing… I know, it’s getting pretty sappy …
It would be all too easy to simply start this post with an explanation of the title…but, I will say that sometimes when you win, a chicken dinner is not your prize; however, when and if it is… enjoy it! We all show care in various ways.. if it was …
I think when you care about someone deeply, every emotion you have toward them and/or for them is always stronger. I also believe that the people you are closest to or care a lot about are those that you can have positive & negative feelings for. It would be lovely …
Birth Control has always caused me to wonder… although all drugs must list their potential side effects.. some of the most common side effects of birth control are the following: Weight Gain Acne Mood Swings If you were to combine these or even take them on their own… they do …
I would like to think that the choices I make are solid ones; however, there are instances in which I make a choice based on various other situations that inevitably blows up. OK, with less dramatic entrance, I will rephrase, a recent choice I made due to extenuating circumstances has …
I will be the first to admit that Females of all ages can get a little crazy; however, I would like to make the following request: Ladies: If you’re dating for dinner, self-validation or you have nothing better to do, please, take yourself out of the game, you’re ruining perfectly …
