Am I ready? Can I do this? Do I have Time? What if nobody likes what I say? How can I compete? These are just some of the questions reeling through my head as I re start my blog. As well as how do I stay motivated? How do I get inspired? Does it even…

Tired of Being In Limbo
What am I doing? I am just wasting so much time. I don’t have a designated time to get up so I lay in bed for hours in the morning reading all the crap that is going on in the world. I’ve never been so in touch with what is going on outside my bubble…
Happy Father’s Day to Me
YES! Of course I celebrate Father’s Day for myself. Wasband has been out of the picture for over a decade. I play both roles so yes, I am the dad. I know, I know…but you aren’t biologically a dad…you are a mother. Yes, true! But a mother wears many hats: the cook, the maid, the…
Attempting Minimalism During Lockdown
Everyones doing it! Cleaning closets, getting rid of stuff you don’t use, going through storage totes of crap, clearing out the file cabinet. Yes, I still have a small black file cabinet of papers that are important car receipts, courtroom and divorce papers, doctor papers and random stuff that I hold because I think I…
Pandemic Homeschooling is Not Real Homeschooling
It was announced this past Friday that schools in New York are officially closed for the rest of the year. It comes to no surprise to me and the kids; we already discussed the probability of that happening. And they aren’t bothered in the least, taking the news really well; almost enthusiastically. My college kids…
Restoring Hope πππ
I need to get my hope restored. I need my faith refreshed. I’m feeling a bit in despair. The past couple days have taken a toll on my worldview. Between being home 95% of the time, keeping updated with the virus, trying to follow what science and facts say versus the Buffoonery on both sides…
6 Weeks and No End in Sight
We’ve been in lockdown, quarantine, social distancing, whatever you want to call it for a month and a half. Nothing is changed much personally…still not working, lots of reading, working out, but now getting a little lazier and not keeping up with my routine for the past two weeks. Starting to feel the lack of…
Wine Re-port: Cupcake Vineyards Red Velvet
Being a lover of Red Blends, today I’m trying Red Velvet from Cupcake Vineyards. Examining the bottle I could not find the vintage year. I bought it based on three things: the attractive label, that it is a blend and that it is under $10. Single moms on a budget understand being frugal. The label…
Our New Reality, For Now
When I came home from my mini vacation a few weeks ago, I arrived to a different, not new, but not normal way of life that I was currently used to. I am by no means the only one…millions of people…either displaced or unemployed as I am upon my return; overworked like the healthcare systems,…
Serenity Now?!
I had a chance to get away last weekend, so I took it. It was the beginning of the craziness when the coronavirus was hitting us in early March. It was a Monday, talking to my friend at work. She says “I have the place and the car, you just need to get to there…
