Five facts about your current relationship 1. We’ve known each other since forever (like 5 year olds) but only seriously knew each other or hung out until early 20’s. 2. His cousin was my absolu...

an honest look. Reason #1: It’s Hard. Reason #2: The results aren’t stellar. Especially at first. Here we have to pause for a moment because, while no one can make a (good) argument that this i...

---

is simply taking an honest look. A really honest look. Look into all the places you were scared to look as a child. Into the dark corner of your bedroom. At the inky dark space made by the close...

---

I read about NVC (Nonviolent Communication) as a resource in a natural parenting book. So I booked DH (bless him, even though he complained the WHOLE time, lol) and I for a beginners couples clas...

---

I’m not sure that Normal exists… I’ve never met a Normal person. Sure, there are people that fall within every average parameter. But how did they get there? Surely by no Normal means, and I’ll ...

---

After writing that entry about trying to quit coffee, I became curious about how bad it really might be and… decided to quit for good. All in all… it’s not that bad. On average the body can easi...

---

Bad parents create lifelong children. Ain’t that the heart, liver, and soft yellow underbelly of it. I had a personal revelation a couple weeks ago. If you’re interested, I shared it- it’s prett...

---

I don’t know how old I am, but age is irrelevant to me. It seems that people take their age so seriously. They take many things seriously, but that makes it fun to play with them. At least it wa...

---

Possibly, because it’s difficult. Possibly, because it’s a mutual sport; you can’t do Judo by yourself. (lol) Possibly because I’m good at it. One of the most deeply satisfying feelings in the w...

---

Drinking coffee. DH and I are TTC (trying to conceive). AND… coffee is really bad for fertility. Or, more specifically, caffeine is bad for fertility. But, I can’t stop. Worse, I’m really not ...

---

I feel like the world is devolving into some kind of funhouse musical horror seseme street of feel-good narcissism. A grown adult woman whom I respect (older than moi) posted this article along ...

---

Like a petulant child talking back to his less than fully respected mother. Exactly like that. The problem of parenting has never hit me so squarely in the face until now. Now that I’m married ...

---

I’m not sure I can help it. Yesterday, while actively checking out in the grocery with DH, a woman behind us pipes up and asks “Does that random brand haven orange flavor?” I look up to see wh...

---

At least I openly admit and accept it. Value judgment is part of how humans perceive the world, and so it is impossible not to judge. No matter how open minded you think you are. You see, judgm...

---

A woman that I met for the second time in my life asked me yesterday. The question caught be off guard- not because it isn’t a good question, or because the answer wouldn’t have deep meaning or ...

---

So maybe it’s just me, but it really annoys the F#ck out of me when.... People come to a public forum with all sorts of asinine people, like FB, and ask for information or opinions about what to...

---

I was a… I’m not sure. Some kind of wood fairy I think. But I looked and acted like a human female of indeterminate age. I did live in the wood, and there were others like me, although I seemed s...

---

and I’m pretty sure why. MIL pulled a fast one on DH and I the week before we went on vacation. It kind of sucked pretty hard because MIL and FIL were going to be part of the vacation- just to s...

---

made me think of how f’d up the weather has been. Little backstory. I’m a small farmer. I became disenchanted with the whole deal in my 2nd or 3rd year, after yet another aridly dry summer that...

---

This isn’t a justification; it’s just how I feel. Saturday DH had a short discussion about Mother’s day plans. I told him my plans- which had to be completed by 11am and couldn’t be moved- and s...

---

What are they? Recently I’ve come to the realization that they are not what I thought they were. Threats. Obedience. Force. Punishment. Exchange of goods or services. Appeasement. My entire li...

---

It really has. A lot has happened since I last came here. I’ve changed a lot. Reading back to previous entries always amazes me. I’m forever pleasantly surprised at my own ability to articulate...

---

As far as I can recall my dream, I am a youngish girl, without much care in the world except for my pets. I have a few of them; a dog, a cat, and some other farm type animals. My family provides ...

---

Yep. You’ve read it and there it is. I can begin to delineate my personal experiences with said entity, but it’s overreach is felt by everyone, no doubt. Even those supposedly beyond it’s control...
