Hands down, my most frequently used and favorite quote. I say this to myself or someone else at least 3 times a day, EVERY day. (thank you, Karen Walker aka Anastasia Beaverhausen, you’re my fave) I usually am saying this in response to someone as we laugh about something that was said that was so …

“I’m just kidding”…..
Really? Are you just kidding? I gotta get this one out. I have had so many moments recently where I have thought this response in my head when kidding gets carried away. I have said I’m just kidding and had it said back to me. And every single time it has happened I have thought, …
Clarity for clarity sake…
“ the deadly measles disease”…. sounds pretty scary. I have read and listened to this over and over again with this recent focus on forced vaccinations. I get so frustrated every single time. I’m not frustrated that people truly believe they are helping the public and who they deem uneducated about the need for vaccines …
“All boats rise with the tide”
I have thrown this quote out a couple times when chatting with others about leadership and empowerment. I am not sure if I read a version of this on a Pinterest inspirational board, or if I created my own version. Either way, it seems to make sense to me about people and living life. “all …
“I want it now, daddy”….
I love quoting movies. I think there even may be some sort of “sub-culture” of people who also speak in movie and tv quotes. We understand each other, laugh and nod to acknowledge not only that we know it, but love it too. It becomes just a normal part of conversation. “I want it now, …
Divorce doesn’t mean failure…
I have grown up with parents that remain married and are heading towards their Golden 50th together in just a few more years. They have weathered through life’s storms and obstacles and remain united partners today. I have always felt a sense of security that my parents stayed married. Why? Was it that it I …
Whatever is dead to me…
I have come to realize that I cannot be angry or disgusted with the apathy epidemic in our country, because up until last week, I was part of it. Unfortunately it takes something to impact our lives so deeply, to recognize that. So here we are. Similar to swearing, the word whatever entered my dialect …
My own “closet”….
I have been told that I came out of the womb talking. As a child I would talk to anyone and everything. I was given the nickname “LW, or last word” by my father at a young age. I have clear memories of stomping up the stairs arguing with either one or both of my …
“Women seek to marry men like their father”….
Uhhhhh. I have always struggled with this one. Don’t get me wrong, I have the GREATEST father in the world. I can not imagine growing up any differently. My Da has taught me so much, loved me unconditionally, helped to instill a sense of such beauty in a personal walk with faith, and most of …

It really does take a village…
I usually screw up most “sayings”. Like the six and half dozen saying? Yeah, still can’t say that one right. I usually just say.. “six and the dozen thing”, people know what I’m talking about so I’m cool with it. I could never truly appreciate the saying “it takes a village” until I needed one. …
I don’t mean to brag….
BUT- usually whenever someone adds a but, there’s always a contingency, so that is fully intended here. My son’s father and I separated/divorced when he was 2. It was something that we both knew needed to happen if we wanted our miracle to have a chance to survive. So from the time he was born …
P.S. on my funeral…
I was out to dinner tonight with mine and my girlfriends hubs. (is that even proper English? 😬) I was reminded of something that I wanted to add to my list of demands for my services. I have always been hilarious. Well, I think I am, and my sister thinks I am. Hilarious to the …
To swear or not to swear….
I will admit it, I LOVE swearing. It is more common for me to blend swear words into my vocabulary than not. It’s just who I am. My father started “bleeping” me many moons ago, because it was just part of my dialect. Personally, words are only words until they are given power or intent. …
Here’s the other side, based on science…..
I was sent a copy of this letter this morning from my cousin that lays down the science concerning the objection people have with fetal cell presence in 10 of the mandated vaccines we are being bullied into as a norm. https://www.soundchoice.org/open-letter-to-legislators/ I support your freedom of choice. Information such as this article allows people …

The journey to my wingman…
I had a partially burst appendix when I was younger. I know that is kind of random to start with when the topic is becoming a momma, but it’s relevant to my journey. Up until I was 38 years old, I was never able to get pregnant. I’m not sure that I ever even really …
My final wishes and eulogy…
This blog entry may be one of the most important that I actually write. I have always joked about how I want to write my own eulogy and the set up for my funeral. Well, im not joking anymore. Now that I have my little therapeutic purging tool, I am gonna lay it all out …
My personal creed…
I just will not be apathetic. I just will not live in fear. I just will not treat people who have different beliefs with disrespect. I just will not settle. I just will not love with any conditions. I just will not allow conflict to dictate an outcome. I just will not hold a grudge. …
GMOooooh no no no….
Anyone who knows me, knows that I am psychotically passionate about educating people about the impact that GMO’s have in our food and ultimately on our bodies. A GMO, or genetically modified organism, is a plant, animal, microorganism or other organism whose genetic makeup has been modified in a laboratory using genetic engineering or transgenic …
My voice, my vote
I have decided for the first time in my life to voluntarily interact or communicate with a politician. I have never been fond of politics in general, as the parties positions have always baffled me, and besides, I don’t really like to be associated with either side. I always seem to find something that both …
It’s Quantum, baby…
My youngest sibling is my brother. He is six years younger than I. He was the sweetest and cutest, spit curl haired little boy around. He was curious and from a really young age, we knew he was different. His brain looked at things differently than mine or our sisters did. He was like a …
