We took Mason to one of our local parks and he found some kids close to his age (almost 4) to run around with. I was thankful he found some buddies but was quickly reminded why we don't often go to the public parks. The kids he was playing with weren't there for 30 minutes when their mom rounded them up to leave thanks for that jerkhole.

Nasty Comments & Crazy People
I got one the other day on my post about Oklahoma Turnpikes from forever ago (way to creep my page weirdo) that called me a bitch and told me if I didn't like how things worked I should start 'slaughtering politicians'...... Uhm.... holy shit this guy has lost his fucking mind Wow that guy is unhinged. I do not now or ever suggest that anyone "slaughters" anyone else....ever. He went from 0 to ape shit immediately.

Dystopian Novel Societies & Their Impact
Dystopian novels are super popular and I know I'm not the only one who has given serious thought to how crappy existing in one of those societies would be.

After previously discussing an extension of my lease they decided that due to the "economic climate" their words....not mine, they were not … Continue reading Life In This Moment

Telling The Truth
When a person relies on grandiose flippancy in the face of a serious accusation instead of showing transparency with proof that the accusation is false.....it's time to ask questions. It's time to ask a lot of questions.
The Poverty Industry – Foster Care
To add to the outrage, a lot of that stolen money....it was once yours. Your taxes that is.
Your Voice Can Move Mountains.
That's the first step. To show that you are, indeed, aware.
WTF Medical Billing
Last year I had the audacity to have a baby at a *gasp* hospital. This, I think, is where I f*cked up. Like a good little mommy to be I did everything the way I was supposed to do it. I saw a midwife from the very beginning of the pregnancy. I went to every … Continue reading WTF Medical Billing
