So Frustrated at Technorati!

Technorati is supposed to be one of the best blog sites. They have thousands of blogs and bloggers talking about everything under the sun and more. The quality of most of the blogs is high and the people are interesting and, in most cases, friendly. And I’d like to get my blog noticed on their site more. BUT THEY WON’T UPDATE MY BLOG!! I...

I am “They.”

A new acquaintance of ours recently told us he has a friend who’s favorite saying is “I am “they.” Brilliant!…I thought. “They” are telling us how to raise our kids. “They” are tearing down the rain forests. “They” are causing pollution. “They” are causing our children to grow up faster, with clothes, music, peer pressure. “They” need to clean up the language on tv....

Managing headaches

One of the great perks of being pregnant (for me, anyway) is not having headaches for 6 months in the second and (mostly) third trimesters.  Then the pregnancy ends and the headaches come back. Why? No one knows. It’s the great mystery in my life. Headaches/migraines started when I was 16. “Have you seen a doctor?” Of course. A couple times. They found no...
