Why does society still feel the need to point out single mothers despite becoming so commonplace? Half the moms out there are single, yet you still hear, “Single mom, so and so, blah blah blah…”...

Slept a little better last time, but still woke up a few times along the way. I don’t think anyone woke me up, though. The only problem is that where my boobs seemed like they were getting less ...

I was surprised to learn that a healthy BMI for a typical woman in the US is between 25-31. Well, I’m 31. As I was telling Aly, I’m not that big but could stand to lose a little even though I ne...

I feel horrible for Aly. She was supposed to get out of the hospital today or tomorrow but now her IBS is acting up and she’s got another partial blockage. This girl just can’t get a break! I wo...

I spent all of yesterday tired because I didn’t sleep well, though I managed to get done what I wanted to do. He planned to pick me up to go out to eat when he got out of work yesterday. Instead...

Enjoyed a half-hour walk this morning. Spring has definitely arrived. The flowering trees are starting to bloom, and it was warm in the sun. I was even a little sweaty by the time I got back to ...

I decided to say hello to Nottelmann and see what I could find out about Johnson. I didn’t expect a reply, but I was surprised by one saying that she not only remembers me but that sadly, Johnso...

Aly’s transplant was this morning. She’ll be paying $325 a month for 18 months which means no apartment for her or visit to us. :( At least she’ll feel better. The planes continue to really suc...

I was reading someone’s journal on Prosebox complaining about their trip to an aquarium. They said kids of all ages were totally obnoxious and that she normally has pity for parents having to de...

It occurred to me after my last entry that Fran’s old friend didn’t have MD, she had CP. Andy and I used to refer to her as the CP lady. I wonder if Kim might have that. I am so sick of so many...

Aly, who should be in the middle of surgery right now, doesn’t think Kim has MD, otherwise she wouldn’t be able to do her Taekwondo. She’s got a point there, but Kim definitely has some kind of ...

It’s great that I didn’t have to deal with anxiety last night or the night before, but I am so not listening to planes today! They’ve been back to being totally annoying at night and in the morn...

Oh great. Now I can’t email my husband because it thinks I’m spamming him. I like to share my thoughts with him throughout my day when he’s asleep or at work. Pictures too. Guess I’ll have to se...

Yesterday I was up 19 hours and only slept for 5. I ended up taking a 90-minute nap. Not sure it refreshed me, though. That’s another thing I don’t get; I hear so many people say that naps refre...

It was almost 70° today. Fortunately, I was able to get caught up on my sleep before the motorcycles hit the scene. They’ll be a problem until November. Patricia’s house is for sale, which kind...

Ready to give up on The Killing and perhaps TV in general for a while. I’m tired of the unfair and unrealistic portrayal of society in general, even though I should probably tell myself hey, it’...
January 30, 2020
Last night I was bored out of my fucking mind. My mind flashed through all kinds of writing projects and other ideas yet not a single one of them appealed to me. It wasn’t like I couldn’t come u...

I think it’s sad that people regularly refer to whites these days as white trash, and it’s okay. Call anyone else names and it’s not acceptable at all. Yeah, I think we’ve taken the politically ...

I signed up for Google Alerts on Tom and myself, plus a few others a while back. Last night I got an alert with Tom’s obituary, LOL. A 74-year-old guy with the same name died in Wisconsin. Love...
January 27, 2020
Been watching The Killing on Hulu but it’s just so-so. I also watched a horror flick called The Prodigy which was pretty good. My memory is so bad that I totally forgot I’ve actually met Elaine...

We’re just beginning to see faint traces of spring here. They’re very faint but they’re there. More sunshine. Highs in the 60s more often. Low’s in the thirties less often. In fact, the motorcyc...
January 24, 2020
Went for a half-hour walk. It’s 50 degrees out. The kind of weather where you wouldn’t want to be outside reading or something like that, but that’s ideal for working out. I’m now down a total ...
January 23, 2020
Down 1.2 pounds after the first day of having under 1000 calories. Wasn’t as hungry as I expected to be either. I just had fruits, veggies and nuts, along with a few thin slices of turkey, a pie...
January 22, 2020
I visited Dixie yesterday and found her to be the same. She’s still struggling but in denial. She’s able to admit that with her wrist still in its cast and her arthritic knees things are hard fo...

My God, I’m as sick of hearing about Harry and Meghan as I once was to hear about Brangelina. Can we please move on to someone else now? Someone we’ve never heard of before? And can we only obse...
