So– I’ve been getting to the part of my year where, periodically, I have a quiet moment, gaze serenely into space, and suddenly shout, “Oh crap!” Because one more damned thing didn’t get done. Goddammit and oh crap. So, while I run around and finish an edit and write my Christmas letter so we can… Read More

I had a totally different plan for this blog… And then I discovered I could pull up blog pictures from ten years ago and it all went to hell. Aren’t my babies beautiful, back when they were babies? I can’t wait to show them these pictures tomorrow. *sniffle* After I’ve sobbed my eyes out. I’ve… Read More

Okay– falling asleep, so this is gonna go quick: *  Finished Red Fish, Dead Fish– it’s almost 100K, and it’s a sequel to Fish Out of Water. Woot! *  Attended ZoomBoy’s choir recital tonight–where I was not only impressed with my offspring, but also impressed at how wonderfully all those middle schoolers sang when most… Read More

Seriously–I had the strangest day. There was taking T to get his prescription, wandering the pet store, trying to finish this damned book–all of that had a patina of general weirdness over it, but nothing, NOTHING tops the morning walk. For starters, this was the morning I left the house with only one poop bag…. Read More

The Virgin Manny Sometimes family is a blessing and a curse. When Tino Robbins is roped into helping his sister deliver her premade Italian dinners when he should be studying for finals, he’s pretty sure it’s the latter! But one delivery might change everything.Channing Lowell’s charmed life changes when his sister dies and leaves him… Read More

So, general consensus is that it’s been a fucktastic year and yes, PEOTUS Fuckturd still hasn’t been removed from office and we’re all biting our nails to see which of our favorite altruistic celebrities are going to be sacrificed at the altar of 2016’s bloodlust. Personally, this year can suck Satan’s bag of dicks for… Read More

*So I was getting ready to write this blog last night, Thursday, when my computer froze and I absolutely needed to go to bed.  Friday and Saturday are usually my nights OFF blogging, but I had to finish this up.  Just so you know why no blog last night but blog tonight. Okay– first of… Read More

I’ll be honest– I really wasn’t thinking of the Rainbow Awards this year. I’d submitted as I’ve done for the last few years, but I knew my offerings this year were quieter than other years, and that was okay. I get really excited when I see other writers, newer writers, friends, win too.  It’s sort… Read More

Parking. I’m not great at it. You’d think it would be easy, right? Someone paints the actual lines on the ground and you just place the car between them. I’m always just a teeny bit off. Or a little more off. Or I’ve parked just too close to the car to my left to get… Read More

 Okay–it’s another post of random pictures that do not actually match my story.  Feel free to enjoy Squish’s smile as she wakes up from her nap at her brother’s tournament and the dogs sleeping on me as though they have never seen me before that evening. Also, the kids thought it was absolutely necessary that… Read More
