Okay not really. But kind of. Sort of. Alright, yes it’s true. My brain doesn’t want to think anymore it seems. Reading literature is too much work. I want mindless reading, thank you very much. And so, (for quite some time now) I’m hooked on romance novels. Yes I’m freely admitting it here. Smoochy, kissy, … Continued
Google kindly emailed me today to let me know that I’ve established authorship on one of my blogs. Which means my Google profile photo and a link to my Google+ profile can now appear next to my content in search results. It looks like this: My example doesn’t use an actual article from Confessions of a … Continued
I’m no country music fan. Flat out. I’m not. You won’t find me line dancing* or two steppin’ my way across a dance floor (for one, I’m not coordinated enough and second, I’m just not into it). However I do appreciate good music. Which means there are some country songs I like. A couple by … Continued
This summer has flown by awful fast. I can’t believe it’s September. I am stupefied over it. Even if I don’t believe the date on the calendar, I have to accept that it’s September because my allergies are driving me buggy! I want to scratch out my eyes and snip the end off my itchy … Continued

I’m a huge online shopper, much to my husband’s chagrin. I love the convenience of it. Especially when it comes to purchasing clothes for Sweet Girl. I know her size, I know what she needs. Why would I lug myself (and potentially herself) down to the mall when I can buy what she needs in … Continued
In July I discovered a delicious wine. Soft, well balanced with notes of cherry and plum that dance along the palate in a smooth velvet line. Indeed. The best part? This wine is not only delicious, it’s a steal at $7.95. Now I hear your skepticism but I kid you not. This wine is tasty. … Continued
I think the selective hearing my toddler engages in is hilarious. I mean, talk about a life skill. Learned at such a young age, my Sweet Girl is bound to move through life on her own terms. In her own chosen reality. Case in point…say any of the following to her: “Sweet Girl, time for … Continued
Fair warning. This post is rather shallow. Or reflects shallowly (word?) upon me. I’m rich in all the things that count. Like family, friends and toddler artwork. I live in a beautiful (if still somewhat dated) home in the ‘burbs. It’s a nice kind of ‘burbs…with mature trees, winding trails and beautiful parks. Walk through … Continued
Three years. Goes by fast. We went from here…all squint-eyed and shiny-new… To here… …in no time flat. A typical one-year-old always on the go. Then came soulful eyes and an intense personality… Today you are hilarious, determined and a joy… Happy Birthday, Sweet Girl. You are loved.
