dirty. horror.

Hey look at me! Talking about my cats again! Pretty soon I’m just going to go into a complete cat lady montage wearing a bedazzled cat sweatshirt with attached collar to the tune of “You Light Up my Life” as I gaze longingly into their eyes (well, eye) Only it has to be the DebbieContinue reading “dirty. horror.”

{big babble} At What Point do You Check on Other Peoples’ Kids?

If we’ve made it this far into parenting we’ve all had other peoples’ kids at our house. And chances are those kids have done something out of the ordinary, gross or strange. I know my kid is guilty of several things under the watchful eyes of another, including losing a tooth and getting pinkeye. ButContinue reading “{big babble} At What Point do You Check on Other Peoples’ Kids?”

{baby babble} Half of a Year in 20 Photos.

Vivi came from me and into our lives six months ago today. I don’t really have anything eloquent to say about the subject since I feel as though I’m still that poor girl who so desperately wants to be pregnant. Not only did I get pregnant, I had a baby…and that baby is suddenly 6Continue reading “{baby babble} Half of a Year in 20 Photos.”

the one about my creepy cat.

It has come to my attention that several of you are creeped out by one of my cats. Specifically Wink. It also has come to my attention that I may very well be a crazy cat lady in a normal lady body because I am thoroughly convinced that not only are my cats perfect, theyContinue reading “the one about my creepy cat.”

to feel the way sweet tastes.

I was once accused of doing “it” wrong by a nurse while I was inpatient at a Utah hospital. “It” being my recovery. She came in after one of my group therapy sessions and asked what I had been working on. I told her that during the group session I realized just how much IContinue reading “to feel the way sweet tastes.”

bespectacled spectacle.

I had a voucher for a free pair of glasses, only the voucher only covered the most basic plastic lens. Considering I am twice legally blind without corrective eye wear, basic plastic lenses in my prescription are comically thick. Not to be one to pass up on free glasses I decided to not only getContinue reading “bespectacled spectacle.”

{baby babble} On Not Having Post Partum Depression

To say I lived in fear of PPD would be an understatement. The possibility of going through PPD for a second time was almost reason enough for me to never get pregnant again. But I knew that no matter what happened, it was only temporary and that it could and would be treated. Continue readingContinue reading “{baby babble} On Not Having Post Partum Depression”

{big babble} Boss Addie and Her Felines.

Remember how I wrote a post about how much work pets are and how much I don’t miss all the cat hair and litter? Yet by the end of the post I was waxing poetic about cats purring and lying around in the sunny patches of my house? Well writing that set into motion aContinue reading “{big babble} Boss Addie and Her Felines.”

first came love…then came other stuff…then came cats.

I have this one window on the South side of my house. It has begged for a kitty to lie in its sunshine since the day we moved in. Guess what? Yesterday two kitties moved in…and today one moved into my sunny patch. This is Percy. He’s 2. He’s bonus kitty to clearance kitty. ThisContinue reading “first came love…then came other stuff…then came cats.”
