This post is going to be SO GREAT. I’m going to teach you, from my many years of experience, how to work full-time, have kids, and have a PERFECT Christmas. Just kidding. For almost 2 decades, I’ve managed 3 kids and a full time job. My husband helps but as a pilot, he’s gone 60% […]
5 Things To Know About Being Married to a Pilot
A few years back, when The Bachelor featured a commercial airline pilot as the eligible gentleman, I couldn’t help but laugh (as did many of my fellow airline spouses) at the perception that pilots are this rare breed of untouchable human. And that they’re really rich. That part was maybe the funniest to those of […]
The Raging Lunatic Christmas Mom
I have two distinct personalities during the holidays. The rest of the year, I have many different personalities, but during the holidays there are only two of me. Let me introduce you! Happy Christmas Angel She is ALL ABOUT family, food, decorating, shopping, time with friends – you name it. If it’s part of holiday […]
Musings and Ramblings and Happy Holidays
Everything I think to write about seems stupid and superfluous. There’s so much hate right now. Did I tell you we saw a KKK recruitment sign on the side of the freeway on the way home from the beach? Yup. Banked on either side with Confederate flags. White friends tell me I’m over-stating it. Black […]
To Us In 2 Years – Post Election Thoughts
I know you don’t want to hear this right now, but in 2 years, two short years, we will start this cycle all over again. Doesn’t really seem possible, does it? But that’s the way American politics works. In 2 years, some new people will suddenly be on the scene and there will be talk […]

Go See Your Dermatologist Right Now
Although I’m usually quite humorous when I write (if I do say so myself) today’s topic is really not funny. I’ll cut to the chase: when was the last time you saw your doctor about your skin? If you can’t remember, that’s a problem. Just this morning, I was in the dermatologist’s office yet again […]
3 Friends Every Working Mom Needs
So you’re a working mom, huh? Honestly, I never really liked that term because I was a mom who stayed home for awhile and that was really hard work. So, for the purpose of this post, let’s say you’re a working mom who works outside of the home? Maybe less offensive. Maybe not. But I […]
How Running Changes Over 45
Honestly, I don’t think much about aging. The small lines appearing around my eyes don’t bother me (and I’m terrified of needles so Botox is OUT), I’m OK with the few pounds I’ve gained, and I adore the wisdom and experience that have made me who I am today. I wouldn’t go back to my […]
