Don’t Get Me Started
If someone posted this question on Threads, the comments would be unkind and someone would ask the OP if this is rage bait. There are many opinions out there about what schools do and do not teach. Some groups of people insist that teachers are indoctrinating kids with LGBTQ+ ideology. Some people want to make… →

On Nugget’s Terms
Oh how I became giddy when I read this prompt today! Any pet parent is going to be happy to share a hundred pictures with you and talk to you at length about their pet. I’m sure I actually do have a hundred pictures, but I can’t narrow them down to just one. I have… →

Simple Advice is the Best
I’m sure I’ve received lots of advice over my lifetime. It’s hard to think of all that I’ve received and what the best was out of that, so I think I’ll go with the most recent. Well, recent as of about five months ago. I was desperately searching for a new job. I had put… →

I Just Don’t Care
Lately I’ve been fond of starting responses with, “Oh honey…” That phrase infers a sympathetic tone and something obvious and sarcastic to come afterwards. Its equivalent is, “Bless your heart.” When we say that in the south, we don’t really mean we want your heart to be blessed. We’re not being nice at all when… →

Quotes All Day
Asking me what my favorite quote is, is like the time my students asked me what my favorite song was. I replied, “What? Like my favorite pop song? Or my favorite country song? I need you to narrow this down.” They hated that answer and always insisted, “Just a song! What is your favorite song?!”… →

An Apartment a Lifetime Away
Flashback Friday Today’s prompt is yet another one about books–fictional characters or something. I’m exhausted with the book prompts. So, let me revert to a Flashback Friday kind of post. This one is based on the prompt earlier this week that asked about our home decoration style. I mentioned in my post that our old… →

Believe It or Not
Excuse my language, but my answer to this question is: abso-fuckin-lutely. And I say that with my whole chest. In fact, this may be another hill that I’m willing to die on. Now, what is the cause of things happening, that is debateable. For a good long time, I believed that what happened in my… →

And a Beaded Curtain
What’s your home decoration style? I don’t have a particular style to my home. Nothing that has an official name. I simply like a lot of color, which is difficult because Josh thinks everything should be a neutral color. Blegh! Our bedroom, for example, has beige walls. And beige curtains. I would have liked a… →
