Holy Cow! We are back from vacation, and I have to say, Los Angeles doesn’t disappoint on food choices! We started this journey here at home, saying one of the things we would do, that we HAD to do, was hit some restaurants we hadn’t been to in years, or a place they don’t have…

I started this blog journey in helping all moms to just stay sane. To do what works for you but not to make life hard. Personally, I'm a mom to three humans and one dog, and the shenanigans are always a daily event. We just roll with it.
Common core can go to hell, overhaul it all!
This post came to me last night as I was talking to a family friend, and her daughter is going to be enrolled into kindergarten next year. We talked about the options she had between charter schools, homeschooled, the lottery system, or just enrolling into the nearest school. One of the things I miss about…
Tasty Tuesday: When you’re broke!
Peeps! I’m here and back! I was so tired from the trip getting here to California, it was crazy, so I took a break of some sorts, and rested a little. I’m here until Thursday, so the treat you guys get this week will be I’ll be visiting some food trucks out here, sightseeing, and…
My vacation and happiness epiphany.
Lovely peeps. I’m up dragging ass, but excited! Tomorrow afternoon, the crew and I will be back on California soil. It’s been so long, and memories, both good and bad are coming back. It’s weird. I miss it, but then I don’t miss it. Great, good, bad, and even ugly things have happened since, but…
Bar 101: Indy/PC Games
Peeps! I’m so sorry of the lack of Bar 101 posts! Between Spring cleaning, and planning this Spring Break trip, I’ve been so busy! Here we are though, I finally got time to post the weekly post I should be posting! Continuing with the theme we voted on, this week is Indy/PC games. Now, to…
This big gal said ‘on my own terms’.
One thing I came to conclusion on was a goal I have of exercising. I’m not 21 anymore, and honestly, I’m ok with that. Yet again, I’m not 80 either. What I did honestly think about was who was I losing the tire for(what I call the stomach fat)? Why am I rushing the process?…
Looking Back, and saying Cheers!
It has been officially a year. I know I have been harping on that for some weeks now, but it means a lot. I never saw myself as a writer, in the sense of making it career. I wrote for fun and to take my mind off of things. Never realizing how many people enjoy…
The New Fight Begins, are you with me?
As I have been grapping with my sinuses acting crazy, and knees being mean to the moving my furniture around, I’ve also been paying attention to my school district changes. Now, I rarely talk politics on my blog, or religion, but education isn’t off limits. With that said, politics intertwine itself into this discussion in…
Tasty Tuesday Episode 5
I apologize for the last Tasty Tuesday post. My sinuses have been kicking my butt since this weekend, so I posponed everything until this weekend. I did manage to get this done! This one is simple, and I wanted to share since it’s been my diet the last couple days. Really easy and inexpensive. I…
My open letter PSA
I want to get serious for a moment. I haven’t read what exactly was said about Kelly Clarkson, or what she said, but I saw the headline “She responds the fat shaming comments”. Why are we fat shaming? I mean seriously, no person has to the right to down anyone else, myself included. Since I…
