Under My Skin

A few minutes ago the phone at work rang. When I answered it there was a man on the other end. He wanted to know if I could hear him. I said “Yes”. (The previous time that the phone rang it was a bad connection and the person on the other end hung up, not [...]

They Should Come With Instruction Manuals

I have been doing this Mom gig thing for 12.5 years now. You would think I would have a pretty good handle on it by now. For the most part I tend to think that I do.  Or I did. Until my baby started growing up right before my very eyes.  Like overnight.

Apologies were offered and accepted, but feelings were still hurt and sometimes you can forgive [...]
