Sleepless in Seattle. Again.
Four hours ago I sent my daughter off to Dreamland. Within seconds, I was conked out as well. Because that’s how I roll.
An hour & a 1/2 ago, I woke from a dead sleep. Still wide awake. Wheeeee!
So, what’s shakin’ dear Interwebs? Tell me a story so I can go back to sleep, please? Kthxbai.

I’m officially *beyond* exhausted. May take me at least a day to recover. Probably several. I hate, hate, hate shopping. And chocolate. And red roses (except when they’re growing in a garden). And the color yellow (except for sunflowers). But I do love snakes, spiders (in the garden, not in the house), and fishing and camping… Yes, I’m a weird girl. Wait. What? I have no...

Awesomesauce to the power of infinity...
Love how I always end up being the bad guy (aka parent) and all around a$shole. No matter what I do, it’s not good enough. I’m no fun. I’m a stick in the mud. I don’t sleep enough. Laugh enough. RELAX enough. How effing awesome that I get to suit up and show up (whether I want to or not), but never get a single pat on the back from the one who *is* good enough, fun up the...

I’m sure you’ve seen it in the news today. The headlines are everywhere and my Twitter feed is decorated with rants from various people I follow: a man running for senate named Todd Akin used the term “legitimate rape” when asked about abortion legality. He has also used…

This gives me some sense of relief — especially for long term Type II diabetes management. I can manage THIS… with practice. And patience.
Dear Universe, please give me a break. I really can’t take much more of this upheaval. Kthxbai.

One more day & my daughter will be back in Seattle. It’s been a long week & 1/2 without her here and though I did my best to enjoy the time off from mommy-hood (sort of), mostly I just missed the heck out of her.
Yeah. I’m sure I’ll be all stressed out again soon enough, but right now I just need some serious Dexy love. I can’t wait to see her tomorrow so I can...
