You are never more empowered than while watching daytime television. I have always told my children they could be anything they wanted to be, but being home, with no kids in the house, and free time to watch quality television (Maury, Jerry, Judge X, Y, and Z), I am convinced even more this is true.…

The first thing to think about when trying to decide whether we are going to plan our vacation next summer to Alaska or Hawaii is how we are going to get there. When you consider that we have to transport five people, just getting to our destination could be a big chunk of the travel…

Obesity is such an ugly word. I’ve hated being fat my entire life – which is about how long I’ve been fat. And the weight causes me to hide myself from so many things. I’m uncomfortable in my own skin most of the time – even when I leave the house feeling like I don’t…

In September of this year, I turn 50. In March of 2016, Jim and I will celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary. We made the decision to do a big summer vacation in the summer of 2015 to celebrate both of these momentous events, and we immediately set about planning our second Alaska cruise. But hold…

I believe myself to be tolerant. My husband says I pick and choose my tolerance. I believe in gay marriage but not polygamy, therefore, I don’t “tolerate” polygamy. Penn Jillette would say my tolerance is condescending. I would say they’re both wrong – no, they’re both assholes. To be tolerant is not to agree that…

Remember when you gave your kids Play-Doh, and they squished it and shaped it, then got it embedded into your carpet so tightly that the only way to get it out was to call the dogs in to lick it out? The little crumbs were all over the dining room table, so you combined them all…

We have just expanded our home by eight feet. As in little cat feet. A trip to the Animal Orphanage in Voorhees, NJ showed us what we have heard over and over – it is kitten season. There were so many kittens looking for homes, and once you go in there, you truly want to…
