Butt tingles and sleep deprivation


What if I didn't ever come out of the bathroom?

I mean beyond the numb legs and butt tingles?

Would life go on without me? Would the dog forget that I went in there? Would the kids?

Maybe I could just stay in there for a whole day.... Quiet. That isn't leaving the kids home alone is it? They can get their own cereal....

Look! Your chest is bigger than mine when you do that!


    Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, we get it, you're a big strong man. Now stop your stupid looking chest puffing and treat the woman you pledged your life to with respect!

    This last week, I have spoken to several people about bullying and outright abuse that has been happening in relationships around me. It makes me sad, and angry, and frustrated.

    Sad that these women (I am not letting women that bully their husbands off the hook here, they just all happen to be women that I know) believe they deserve to be treated this way. Angry that the men that are supposed to be taking care of them are failing so miserably and frustrated because I remember believing in that misconception and I know that right now, none of them are at a point of strength that they are ready to do something about it.

    So I decided to write this post to those women in my life that are being bullied and lied to by the one person that should be swimming through shark infested waters to bring them an ice cold Pepsi.

    Here are some of the lies I hear you believing, and the truth you should see behind them.

Sisters Before Misters

Life without my best friends would be so dull!

I have 2 of the coolest, funniest best friends in the world. No seriously. They are without a doubt the  funniest 2 people in the universe.

They have gotten me through so much and taught me to just laugh at life cause letting it get you down is just a waste of an evening.

When you get the 3 of us together for an evening, you never know what will happen. You could even end up convincing a waiter to

Kids and Family and Friends oh My!

This might surprise some of you more relaxed people out there but being  OCD about your house is a stressful thing.

I feel anxiety on an hourly basis.

See for me, my OCD lies not only in the need to have my house "show home ready" as my husband calls it but I also NEED to follow my routines. If my routine gets interrupted, I get very anxious. A stress level of about 5-6 out of 10.  If it has already been interrupted that day, then more like an 8 or 9.

My problem is

Just when you think things couldn't be better.....


Have you ever noticed that no matter how great your life is going, something is always going wrong? Kind of like that song, "Ironic" It rains on your wedding day or the plane crashes just when the guy gets up the nerve to take his first flight. It seems to be almost a guarantee in my life.  To the point that I can not be truly happy because I just know

Van Battle Royale

*BING!* *BING!* *BING!* The seat belt reminder light on the dashboard of my semi-new-to-me Toyota Sienna flashes faster and faster. I think... You can't tell me what to do!! I will put my seat belt on when I am good and ready!

I have somehow gotten into an ongoing battle with my bossy van and though I may have already started driving, I can't bring myself to
