What we did without, now becomes an almost obsession
Originally posted 2015-07-20 20:11:27. As a single mother I struggled just to keep food on the table. I would make grocery trips with the kids stroller and was always limited to the dollar amount spent and quantity because I could only fit so much in the stroller. Now at one point early on we lived maybe a mile or so from the closest grocery store. So it wasn’t so bad that I am complaining about…

Not so sweet strangers
Originally posted 2015-06-29 19:58:49. Most of people have a memory of the ice cream truck coming by and the excited feeling you get knowing you were about to get something off the ice cream truck, YAY! Well that’s for most people. I admit I used to feel the same way. UNTIL…. Living in Las Vegas, NV we lived right behind a business that supplied ice cream trucks their inventory. Naturally they would frequent our apartment…

Dusty’s Art
Originally posted 2019-08-19 09:26:41. Dusty has some coloring books and wanted to do some of them. Not bad I’d say. I remind him to stay in the lines and this was the result. What you think? Anyone have suggestions or things you may do to aid your kids? He graduated high school (2013) and well doesn’t do things like this anymore. Not on a regular anyway. There aren’t many things for these kids that graduate…

Aging With Grace Is A Blessing Not Always A Requirement
Originally posted 2015-03-15 15:31:49. Another year older and some would say another year wiser but hey we can’t all be perfect. 😉 I have been MIA the past 4 weeks. It has been a very trying time considering my 21-year-old son has decided to take on actions of younger children to teens. Since my daughter has been away in college he hasn’t seen much of her. He was so used to having her by his…

Children…and all that comes with it.
Originally posted 2015-01-12 21:38:53. Raising children can be one of the harder things parents have to do in their lives. As we all know there isn’t that perfect manual for us to guide us through the challenges that parenting presents. For me, since I have a “normal” one and a special needs one I had to throw out any previous ideas I had on how to do things. Not dramatically different but in a lot…

Its a new year and what will it bring
Originally posted 2015-01-07 00:57:18. Well its now 2015, Yay! What that means, who knows. Will it be a good year for us and so many more, one could hope so. To start off the new year a very close family friend’s husband of 28 years passed away. He had been suffering from ALS. He passed on January 2, 2015. His wife is such an overwhelmingly loving person who we were honored to connect with back…

Killing time
Originally posted 2019-07-22 19:00:34. With it being so hot we found something for Dusty to do to stay busy. Plus an added benefit working on fine motor skills.Did you know there are lota of ways to work on their motor skills outside of a doctor’s office setting? I guess this beats him sitting here just watching the ice machine.

Husband, Father, Marine, Veteran
Originally posted 2014-11-06 20:46:55. Today, November 6 is my husbands birthday. He is not used to necessarily celebrating it because of the way they grew up they didn’t celebrate birthdays, Christmas, etc. He turns 33 years old. Yes, I guess that technically means I am a “cougar” since I have almost 9 years on him. But I am ok with that. He has been a great provider and father to my children. He earned the…

Letting go
Originally posted 2020-10-01 14:18:57. They letting go of the past that hurt you is good for your soul, your overall happiness… Well what do you do when you are faced with that past every single minute, hour, day, week, month and year of your life? How do you escape that? How do you grow and learn to cope with something that not only harmed you but the lives of your children?
