Existential Crisis

July 13, 2018 ~ Sahara ~ 4 Comments

I’m sad to report that I’m currently recovering from a surprise hospital visit. I am light one gall bladder and hopefully will be able to eat dairy again. I’m happy to say goodbye to the 12 or so pounds I lost over the last two months, but overall, this was a really negative experience and I shan’t be trying it again.

How Do YOU Measure A Year?

June 26, 2018June 27, 2018 ~ Sahara ~ 2 Comments

People of my high school graduating class, particularly theater nerds like me and especially my friends, remember well the 1996 musical Rent.

Crestwood Mall

June 25, 2018 ~ Sahara ~ 2 Comments

I was recently back in St. Louis (Wee One and I did a few weekends of fair in mid-Missouri) and one afternoon, we went out with my (step) grandmother. This meant driving around a part of town I was in a lot as a kid, and a bit in high school, so of course it sparked nostalgia. But none so much as the mall: Crestwood mall.

2018 Goal Mid-year Update

June 8, 2018June 7, 2018 ~ Sahara ~ 1 Comment

I have been lax on these goals, some of them. But, in my mind, the year is still young, and these things can still be done. Most of them. >wink<

The Facebook post read, “By any chance, did anyone cut my daughter’s bangs?” And thus opens the one case I was never able to solve.

Like A Banana

May 18, 2018May 19, 2018 ~ Sahara ~ Leave a comment

Doctor Who, S2E4. The Girl in the Fireplace. Written by Steven Moffat.

I know a lot of people love this episode, but I don’t think it’s all that.  I think it’s disjointed and has some good parts and good characters, but the mash-up is both trite and awkward, and I don’t love this episode.  I usually skip to my favorite parts.

Speech Delay Is Hard

May 8, 2018 ~ Sahara ~ 4 Comments

I know I’ve mentioned here before, that Wee One has a speech delay. She’s making progress her her speech therapist and next fall, we’re getting her into a preschool with an SLP on staff. (Oh yeah, I told you about the testing last month: she got in.) She’ll be fine.

But right now, today… man.

Little Girl, Big Halls – Preschool

April 21, 2018 ~ Sahara ~ Leave a comment

I know I wrote the other day about having a challenging time with Wee One (challenging with a toddler? Who would have guessed?) but today is a new day and things really are grand.

Today was a tough day. I know I say I write to stop time, but this may not be the time I want to stop.

Toddler Bucket List

April 3, 2018April 2, 2018 ~ Sahara ~ Leave a comment

My friend’s daughter is six and has a bucket list. On it is a beach where flamingos walk amongst you. She’s three or four years older then Wee One, so WO wouldn’t be down for that yet, but I got to thinking about other things that would be on her bucket list. These are the things she never says no to, no matter her mood seconds prior.
