Two things: I’m pretty sure my husband would consider divorce as an option if he were to read this. My husband hardly ever reads my blog so if you’re worried about the state of my marriage, it’s all good. So. The Star Wars movie comes out this week. Whoop de doo. As you might have…

Adoption and the movies – things to consider Before I took my kids to see The Good Dinosaur I consulted the experts of Facebook.

This isn’t an article about wonderful sentiments, so hold on, okay? What not to say to adoptive families My sons did not enter this world via my…
I don’t give a rat’s ass about the Kardashians…let me just put that out there. I don’t care about Kim. Not her lips, her butt or her daughter’s wardrobe. I don’t care about Klhoe. I know there are more of them but I’ve never bothered to learn their names. I don’t hate them…I just don’t…
