Lately, there has been this movement to do things like not keep a clean house, ignore the dirty dishes and skip the laundry and go spend time with your kids instead. Well, I think that’s horse crap, honestly. Dude, DO YOUR DISHES. I don’t understand. It takes less than ten minutes to rinse off a…

Thrown any notions you have of health food in the trash can along with that diet magazine you subscribed to two years ago, but don’t know how to cancel. Healthy eating isn’t about tiny portions and going to bed sad and hating life. Sometimes it’s picking one solid plan and sticking to it. If, for…
It’s officially fall. Okay, so in some places it doesn’t feel like fall. We’re still weathering 90+ degree days here in Texas, but the leaves! They are falling. Cold weather is in our future.

So, I was at a conference (sort of) recently and seated for dinner with other writer/reader types—who are also good friends I get to see not often enough—when the conversation turned, as it does, to Hogwarts’ houses. Look, don’t even pretend you haven’t had the “what house would you be in” conversation, or secretly sorted…
I’m going to go out on a limb here and guess that you probably had a lot of goals for 2016 that didn’t get done. Resolutions, goals, wishes, and bucket list items…all those things. No? Just me, then? When it comes to good practices or goal setting, New Year’s Day is pretty arbitrary. It’s not like…
Working at Starbuck during the holiday season is its own type of pumpkin spice flavored hell, but you don’t think about those poor baristas stuck listening to the same songs for six to eight hours. Shuffled or not, it’s enough to make you want to drown yourself in the coffee urn. I swear if I had…
I’ve watched as my own generation has struggled to make ends meet, and now my generation is incapable of instilling financial values in their offspring, as they’ve never learned to manage money themselves. Thirty percent of the people in my own inner circle, in fact, still live with their parents or their spouse’s parents. Ninety percent…
Well, the election is finally over and while America is still snuffing out the flames from the riotous dumpster fires in our major U.S. cities, maybe we can finally get back to that nagging list of blocking friends and loved ones who voted differently than us.

All right, guys. I’ve gotten onto you before, but you’re still screwing it up. You know how I know? Because I have to read about it all over Facebook and magazines. I have to see it on the streets. I have to hear about it in line at Starbucks. I have to smell it…I don’t…

I hate driving with a passion. I mean, I love the act of driving, but only if I’m so far out in the middle of nowhere that all of the idiot drivers have been replaced by inbred, human-flesh-hungry nuclear mutant people.

When you’re a mother, every day is an adventure. A trip to Target can be the chore you’ve been dreading because you’re a tired, working mom or the only contact you’ll have with the outside world because you’re a stay-at-home mom who’s running dangerously low on toilet paper. But while you’re there, see if you…
Look, I try not to judge people, really I do. In fact, I’ve made it my mission to stomp out online mommy trolls, because I think they are making the internet a sad place, and I can’t be having that. The internet is my happy place. I know it’s not nice and that it always…

Most of the time my kids are awesome, but molding adolescents into responsible adults can be a challenge that will test the patience of a saint. After a long week at the office, running errands, acting as family chauffeur and short order cook, I want nothing more than to kick back and have a nice…
Having coffee in the morning is a convenience most of us can’t live without. It keeps you from being a zombie at work (or from falling asleep at your desk – guilty as charged). But sometimes, even a few cups of the good stuff isn’t enough to keep you up and about (especially on the…
I would love to say that I’ve always loved coffee, but that’s totally not true. I mean, I’ve always liked a cup once in a while, but with the measuring of coffee and the resulting too-strong pot that nobody likes…I just never seemed to get it right at home. And don’t get me started on…
I’m a nosy person. I pretend like I don’t give a crap what’s going on around me, but dammit. I do. That’s why, when someone takes a phone call in the coffee shop, I am pretty much screwed. Here’s the thing– I don’t answer my phone in the coffee shop. It’s all loud in here,…
This morning I was listening to a radio show. I’ve been listening to this same radio show since junior high, and often times they’re so funny I stay in my car until they finish whatever bit they’re doing– because I’m a girl who loves a good joke. So, this morning, I’m doing the sit-in-my-driveway-drink-my-Starbucks-and-listen-to-the-radio thing…

So… I was sitting around last night thinking about this… I wouldn’t consider myself particularly ‘green.’ Oh, don’t get me wrong. I think it’s a cool concept, and one I wouldn’t mind getting involved in, I am just kind of lazy, and green seems to take a lot of work. But, I started thinking about…
