A Side of Autoimmune with your Corona

The following post is centered on diabetes and coronavirus. If you’re suffering from either and can’t take the mental trauma right now, please don’t read.  P.S. – I’m considering starting a second blog that either simply looks better than the piece of garbage I have now, or is centered around...

My "Literal" Definitions of 2019 Slang

Let me know if I missed any by writing in the comments 😊 Literally: Still being used to describe anything that isn’t literal. Extra: A contradictory word that calls something or somebody over-the-top, while the use of the word in the first place ends up being extra. Ignorant: Liberal word for anyone who has a different viewpoint from you. Snowflake: Republican word for anyone who...

Sleep Talking and T-Rex Advocacy

My husband talks in his sleep, but only when he’s dog-tired. Typically, it’s the kind of unintelligible drabble that dissipates in a minute or two, followed by soft snoring (I’m sorry honey, did I say snoring? I meant “breathing”). I’ve been known to talk in my sleep before, but it hasn’t...

"It's just a Flesh Wound!"

Have you ever had one of those days where everything is going according to plan, nothing is out of the ordinary, and then, out of nowhere, you suddenly have a knife protruding from your leg and you’re bleeding in the parking lot? Oh, so just me then? Cool, cool. My clumsiness knows no bounds....
