...the end of the world as we know it, and I feel fine. 2008-06-25 17:39:00 Husband and I never got to that movie last night. I did turn the computer off and we sat on the couch and talked. It was wonderful to reconnect with him. He's a very reserved person that does not...

PMS or Paxil? 2008-06-22 19:02:00 I really hate taking meds. A lot.
About 2 months ago, I started taking Paxil
to help me cope with my anxiety. I've done meds before with some success. I did Prozac when I was a teenager. It was meh....

Frustrated by ignorance and intolerance 2008-06-20 12:19:00 So yesterday I joined a forum for local moms. I was pleased to find a place where I might find other moms like me in my area. And, I suppose I did. But I was so repulsed by a few peoples' comments...

Breastfeeding: Failures and Successes 2008-07-07 22:26:00 A fellow blogger posted about her breastfeeding successes a few months ago and it inspired me to document my own failures and successes.When I was pregnant with Joy, I read absolutely everything I could get my hands on about pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding. I talked extensively with my mom about her experiences, as well. Mom told me she had only nursed my eldest brother and not for long. H
Good food, better company 2008-07-06 18:30:00 We woke up late.T was in the shower. I just lectured her on Friday about half-hour showers every morning. It's been weeks since I chewed her out for leaving hairballs in the shower drain. Slightly irritating way to start the day when you really wanted a bath before leaving.So we waited for more hot water. It wasn't terribly long, but I wish I had gotten my ass in gear earlier so we coulda hung out Read more:better

Vantage Point of Fireworks 2008-07-05 19:07:00 After flinching from the many, various noises from the fireworks last night, I decided it would be far more exciting to actually go outside and watch. One can better prepare herself for the bang when one sees the fuses being lit! So, I scooped up my Buddha and went outside to watch. He was terrified, the poor thing. He eyed the lights suspiciously and jumped with every pow, and then the pitiful b Read more:Fireworks

We sat together at the dinner table and stuffed ourselves. But the neighbors are stinking up the pla Read more:Bummer
