Halloween Already?

Halloween Already?

I don’t know what you’re talking about. It has absolutely not been two months since my last post. >_> Happy Halloween! I hope you enjoyed it. I always forget how much I like it until we are giving out candy. I just love to see happy kids, and happy grownups when we offer them candy […]

Blog Post How Do?

Blog Post How Do?

Wow. I did not think it had been that long since I managed to come here…in my defense, though, it’s been a hell of a month. Some was the same as ever–starting school and trying to stay on top of everything to get us going smoothly. Some of it was stuff I’ve never dealt with

It’s a Wonder Woman Night

It's a Wonder Woman Night

So…I have a confession. I’m a great big geek (I’ve mentioned that before, that’s not the confession) and Star Wars is where it started for me (also not the confession), but I haven’t watched The Last Jedi yet. (that was the confession.) Part of that is because I don’t like to jump into the wildness

Catch-22

Catch-22

Case manager, care coordinator, recovery coach–whatever you call them, my kid has been through probably three a year since she was twelve. Turns out when you starve mental health funding (and schools, THANKS ARIZONA STATE LEGISLATURE) people don’t stick around in hard jobs made harder by pathetic pay. Anyway. A couple of case managers ago,
