If I Were A Different Kind Of Girl
I’d have a tan all year ’round. And no eczema.
I’d wear a size 4 pants.
I’d love exercising and be training for a marathon.
I would hate cheese. And cream. And chocolate.
I would be a beautiful dancer.
I would have beautiful, natural fingernails instead of the crooked growing mess I have on my hands.
My house would be sparkling […]Beautiful Sadness
Life is amazing and crappy all at the same time.
The weather in Arizona has been simply amazing. Last year by about the middle of March it was eyelash singeing hot. This year? It’s almost May and we are still in the high-seventies, mid-eighties most days. The green that sprouted on the mountains (hahaha mountains. More […]Never Forgotten
Today marks four years since my Dad and a Half Mike passed away. I wrote a lot about his life last year, and I cry every time I read it. He was such an amazing, loving man and I cannot say enough how incredibly lucky I feel to have had him as part […]
How Do You Find Words?
You get a call and the person on the other line says “I have bad news . . . I don’t even know how to say this.”

It’s not often that I am moved and deeply touched by a blog post, but I think all of you should go read the Soap Opera Sunday post by Abish. She hosted Soap Opera Sunday this week and she really exposed herself and shared something she’d never shared before. It’s truly amazing.

2. Diet Cheater Days. Today is my “day off” and while MOST […]Another Lame Post
Let’s see . . . I seem to suck at blogging about . . . anything relevant lately. I feel as though I’ve been in a writers slump. Not that I consider myself a real writer or anything important like that because I don’t.
I do have two minor Kateastrophes to report on, so […]Today’s Thankfuls
1. Homemade Chicken Noodle Soup (recipe courtesy of my Grandma Shirley). My husband is sick and in my opinion, that stuff can cure anything! Plus, it’s fun to make and my house smells delicious!
2. Long pants. I mean the ones that are long enough that they look perfect with high […]Thankfuls
So my best friend Jewels and her sister Andrea are both posting five things they are grateful for every day in November and it got me thinking. See, I am a HUGE fan of Christmas. I have been obsessed every since I was little. My birthday is near Christmas as well, so […]
Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?
Hmmm, maybe I should change the title to “Where Have All the Gentlemen Gone?” because that’s really what I mean. But that’s neither here nor there. I like my title and it’s staying.
I realize I’m not the only woman who asks this question, but I had an experience today that gave me pause and […]
