If you’ve ever been in a car with someone driving that would drive in circles rather than stop and ask for directions, then you know how I have been feeling lately.

I’m a child of divorce. My parents divorced when I was 8 or 9, after an unhappy marriage of 9 years. I now have a wonderful stepfather (who we will call my father…and who is no longer married to my mother), my mother (whom I love), and my real father (with whom I have little [...]

Freaking Out

My husband is interviewing at a lot of places in the next few weeks for a possible fellowship next year.
I was doing good with the idea of moving for one year—even if it was cross country—even if it cost 1/3 of our income to do it—even if it [...]

I Think I Need a New Schedule + Other Things
I apologize for being somewhat absent for the past 2 weeks. Everything in my house has gotten dirty during this time too. I have been working online on my new tutoring business like crazy. I am getting to the point where I should be able to section off my days again and work a little [...]

This is a comment on a blog that I read about today. As the wife of a husband who is often working and not available to our family all the time, this was very reassuring. I will make a point to let my husband read it as well.

The first time I saw this commercial, I laughed my *ss off! It’s funny and it made me want to buy this stuff. I haven’t gotten it yet, but every time I walk [...]

How Much is True?
This article was on msn.com this morning. It is titled: Ask Jake: Seven Lies Every Guy Tells. I have to admit, the title got me. I took a peek and read the column.
I think back on Doc’s and my 14 year relationship (8 years of marriage next month) and wonder how many of these he [...]

Ah! Husband Mystery SOLVED (or not) after 14 years!!!
My husband and I I have had this argument while my husband listens flabbergasted for the past 14 years. He is bewildered by my reaction to this and although we I have tried to dissect why this bothers me so that I could get a grasp on what made me so damn angry about it…I [...]

Off My Chest
Do normal people come home from work and spend time together before beginning their day again? Doc and I sat down together the other night and watched an episode of Friday Night Lights online. As we sat there, I said how nice it was just to sit for a while and spend time together. It [...]

Answers to the Question: “Grandpa, why don’t you and Grandma live together anymore?”
Well, the day has finally come. My son asked my father about his divorce. I stepped in immediately–1) because I felt it important I explain in my own way and 2) I am sure my father wasn’t sure that he would say what I would want him to say…
So, I waited a little while after [...]

The Boy Loves the W*bc*m!!
Ha! This may be easier than I imagined! Big Brother “saw” Doc on the w*bc*m tonight. He didn’t say he missed Doc even once today! He cannot wait to talk with Daddy again! I know it will wear off eventually, but it seems to be helping with the distance.
Oh, and I love it!! I get [...]
