In a matter of four short years, I earned a Bachelor’s in Management and Organizational Leadership, became a Certified Childbirth Educator, a Certified Doula, and had two children that I breastfed through all of it. I went back to school when my third baby was just SIX DAYS new. When my middle child was just a few months old, I worked 40 hour weeks, attended school full time at night, then came home and ran a cake business that landed one of my creations in...
Looking for Chief Editor for TFB Resource Guide
Hopefully this week I’ll be able to get a proper post written, but today is not that day. I’d love to tell you all about how I’m beyond sick of being in school and it will be a miracle if I start classes this fall (as in, I’m registered, but I’d really rather give myself a root canal instead.) I’d...
Adventures in Weaning
Lately, something has changed. A few months ago, I couldn’t think about Jolene weaning. Now? I’m down with it. Well, technically the weaning process began the day she started solid foods 18 months ago. But most people think of weaning as The Official End of Nursing and that’s what I’m talking about now. For the last year or so, we’ve...
The Plot Thickens…
You know what I’m looking forward to? Never having to post update about this lawsuit ever again. It has turned into such a convoluted clusterfuck that it’s become very easy for her side to develop their own entirely different narrative for what’s transpired. Every time I see her cronies drumming up some armchair legal analysis, it sounds like a teenager...
Lawsuit Update.
This post is for those who are following The Case. All others can ignore. Last time I updated, the court had not only dismissed at least three motions the plaintiff filed against me, but also came back with the initial opinion that the entire case “lacked merit” and could be dismissed unless she could provide some compelling reason not to....
Birthday Bummer.
I’ve dreaded turning 35 for, oh, say, as long as I can remember counting to 35. I know that age ain’t nuthin’ but a number, but that was my scary number. For me, 35 was the tippy top of the climb up the roller coaster, and once at the top, there was nothing but a swift decent straight down to...
A Reminder About Sharing Your Account with Someone…
You may remember, when you signed up for an account on this blog, there was a “Terms of Service” you had to agree to before being granted membership. That “Terms of Service” specifically stated that sharing your account password with anyone, or reposting any of my content elsewhere on the web, is a violation of TOS and would result in...
Needing a Break.
This post is nothing more than an apology, both retro and proactive, for being somewhat absent from the online spaces that require/request my presence. I’m merely going through a period in which I have a lot to take care of in my real life, and a whole lot to avoid online. I’ve been halfheartedly posting a few quips and links...
