She asked that he walk away He said; it can’t be done He asked that she stay She said; it can’t be done Can their love go astray It Can’t Be Done Anything worth anything comes with challenges; however, when forced to evaluate risk versus reward, the person who has…
You passed. You are good and Loving You’ve probably heard it a thousand times (or maybe a little less) but there’s no harm in telling the truth like it is. You have the kind of love inside you that is fueled by purity and honesty. You rarely hold grudges and don’t…
No sigh guy. During a brief closer cohabiting period there were a lot of deep breaths – a lot! Short of wondering if there was a gasping issue all I could ascertain was that someone was just a bit antsy about the extra footsteps in the hallway. Lots of sighs…to…
Things are getting back to normal! Calls, calls, calls and more calls; however, this is what we/he’s been waiting for. Normally, I feel a titch guilty when the phone rings and I know he has to brave the elements, whereas I get to stay snug as a bug; however, after more…
Friday, well, as we return to the norm, this is the first Friday of that norm. I’m excited, yet, apprehensive. As I learn that absence makes the heart grown fonder, I need to realize that I am still somewhat plagued by out of sight, out of mind. Things never really…
Sometimes I need to get back to Claire. I so enjoy being the caregiver; however, despite my willingness to do so without expectation it still takes something out of me. I compare this to Motherhood. I love my son and when he was young, I had to do a lot…
It’s Saturday; however, feels like Friday or could it be Monday, as we ring in the New Year and just come off of the Christmas high, the days on and off have me all in a dither. Continue Reading
Happy New Year! I did stay up to ring in the New Year; however, not necessarily by choice…but, the safety of those I love and care for far exceeds a few missed hours of slumber. Luckily, they made it home safely and were snug in bed shortly after 2:30 AM….
On the first day of Chaos The Jury said to thee: We find Wilson not guilty On the second day of Chaos Ferguson residents went on a spree: No work gloves but a flat screen color tv On the third day of Chaos Ferguson protests on tv: Laying in…
The proposed event set to be held at Mall of America tomorrow is so very sad. I do believe there’s always room for continual improvement, but, to feel that you have a ‘right’ to invade a privately owned space is, at its core – stupid. After being politely advised AND…
I’ve recently come across several videos showing Police Officers stopping motorists and giving gifts. This is wonderful; however, I want to be REAL CLEAR – they DID NOT just start doing this in the wake of Ferguson or NY…. in fact, aside from the $100 or Secret Santa things… the…
During a routine traffic stop, one of the occupants, female is not dressed, no, I do not mean scantily clad – flat out naked. There’s a ton of needles throughout her car and after she’s able to wrap a sheet around her, they discover in her purse the following, baggies,…
On Thanksgiving 2014 in the wake of the Darren Wilson Grand Jury decision, rioting has ensued across the country. I’ve chosen to watch The History Channel’s series; The Men Who Built America vs. news reports of those who choose to ‘burn this bitch down’. It’s puzzling to me that anyone would participate…
It’s hard to let things go. I’m not talking about losing them, but more or less just letting whatever come – come. I’ve fooled myself into believing that I was in control or that I possessed some magical power to will things a certain way; however, life’s lessons have proven…
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…
I hate whenever someone says the word “Drama”. Lately my life has been pretty calm, cool, dare I say even collected? Yet, I still have that other shoe to drop feeling. There’s no actual reason for me to feel this way; however, it’s difficult to separate previous experiences from now. I would…
I have spent the better part of my life involved in some type of mentoring of Marines. This has been some of the best time spent.. and I will continue to do it until they shoot me out of a gun (check out this blog post for an explanation of…
I’ve started to write articles for WikiHow, it’s been a really great experience thus far and not only do I encourage you to click the image below to read some of my articles, but, consider becoming part of the WikiHow community. This is an old, old post; however, I’ve decided…
After 2 decades….I’ve made a relatively significant change to a physical feature. Nothing was made bigger or smaller per se; however, shorter would be more accurate. I type this slowly as the change will take some adjustment; however, as I write this I reflect back on 20 years of resembling…
…my electronic cigarette! While in Chicago this past November my friend JJ, no not, Jimmy Walker…took me to CigNot. She highly recommended the electronic cigarette. I had thought about quitting; however, each attempt was, well, unsuccessful. She was not pushy; however, she knew how wonderful this was and she knew…
Mr. Cute and I have been talking recently; however, days past by without a call or text and in my new approach, I was not driving the ship. Yet, I felt that I had every right to reach out, check-in – see what, if anything was up. So I did….
It has become abundantly apparent that this blog was originally created to vent my dating experiences; however, based on recent experiences it has become clear that as I move from the dates of chaos, I have less to write about. I definitely want to scream from the mountain tops as…
I am sure there will be a ton of posts launching at 12:01 1 January 2013, therefore I may as well put my post in the ring. This will be a short one as I begin the New Year! I am welcoming the new year at home, by myself. I…
Just 2 days before Christmas and my tire was flat I had to get going had no time for that The 75 cent air pump was just close enough I hoped that my tire would be just as tough It filled up with ease and I was back on the…
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…
