Dear Food Service Representative, who worked at McDonald’s in Florence SC (and whose name was rubbed out), I know your shift was almost over, but as a customer of your fine establishment I expect, no, demand that you fulfill your duty till my order is finished (at the very least). Actually listening is a good…

There’s a message in my Cheerios – It says, Ooooooo
24 hours and we’ll be on the road to Hendersonville, North Carolina for an overnight stay, before we finally get to the beach. We usually get to the hotel in Hendersonville incredibly early – and proceed to swim, walk around the old town (with the kids justing wanting tomorrow to come, and tired from being…
Read MoreI’m not drunk, all right! I just have a speech impediment; and a stomach virus; and an inner ear infection
I’m going to write at length because I can, about everything under the sun. So, rest your eyes. Get a drink. Be comfortable (not that comfortable). Birthdays are strange for me. There are swirling emotions of apathy, excitement and disappointment every year. June is a very busy time for most people (and friends). Endings. Beginnings….
Read MoreIt’s just easier to call you stupid

Not much to report in the circus. It feels as if we’ve pulled into a sidetrack waiting for others to pass by as we wait. The weekend? Meh. Normal. We had the “inspection” Saturday morning – we all went to the Wilcoxon’s for about an hour and half (Sonya and Kim exercised, the kids and…

Thank you to Sha for passing me the musical baton. I shall try my best to hold tight (and yes, this is somewhat redundant as it nearly exactly mirros what I have on Wiseacre). For those of you who don’t know what it is; I believe it was started by Keegan Jones at The Big…
Read MoreMothers Day, motivation, inspiration and humiliation
HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!Not much planned today. P.F. Changs. More house work, so that we can put the house “on the market” early as possible this week. A message for mothers everywhere — you are worth celebrating. Let your family or friends pamper you. Your worth is not measured in money, or accomplishments, or titles, or…

House hunting has already proved to be frustratingly longwinded. Email after email. But thank God for the internet — and the means to “see” houses without wasting afternoons walking through and driving around all of Cincinnati. So far, no luck. Armstrong Circus has a Flesch Reading Ease of 83.27 – yeah, that’s right. We’re cool…
