Waiting on fate

I’ve looked everywhere Wandered directionless through my days Called for you in my dreams Begged the heavens for any clue as to where you could be I know you’re out there I can feel it in my bones You make me ache Make me writhe between my sheets Make me imagine so many delicious possibilities…

Beauty is a beast

Beauty is painful, time consuming and freakin expensive. I don’t wear a lot of makeup, don’t do a lot with my hair, but I do spend time keeping my skin and hair healthy. Part of that is all the facial creams, treatments and habits I go through. I start every week with Mask Monday (a…

The key to survival is … a happy cat?

I know I have been MIA for a bit here yesterday and today, but I have been ridiculously busy. You see, my oldest daughter finally gained access to her inheritance and we have been shopping for essentials for the apartment she will soon be moving into (as soon as we drive down there next week…

And so ends another day

I’m sure I have mentioned it before, but just to reiterate, I absolutely love sunsets (I love sunrises, too but we aren’t on the right coast for those, so I’ll stick with sunsets). And I’m sure I have previously mentioned that I love the beach. Well, this evening I decided the kids and I needed…

I could never leave you wanting

I have a few things I want to get off my chest tonight, so I’m going to apologize in advance for anything I say that upsets or offends any of you. I almost took a mental health day from here today, because the day didn’t go as smoothly as I wanted it to, but about…
