Myers-Briggs, 16 personalities, whatever
So I’ve taken this test like 100 times and every single time I get a different personality type that doesn’t actually fit very well. A friend shared results on social media and I took the test a few days ago and got yet another unfitting result. Then my wife said she took it and so…

Not Today
For the first time in weeks, I have nothing I HAVE to do today. No appointments, no commitments, no soccer practice, nothing to do outside of my house. What a wonderful gift of a day. May has always been hectic because it’s the end of the school year where I’ve lived since I had kids.…

OCD
I have a lot of issues with the way Hollywood portrays Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. It doesn’t look the same for everyone. It’s not always about obsessive cleaning and organizing. It’s so much more complicated than a ton of stupid rituals or constant checking on things you know you’re supposed to do like lock the door…

Work Ethic
Boy #1 has no work ethic. I hate saying it. I tried so hard with him. He’s always been…slow. Slow to follow directions, slow to take care of what he needs to, slow to grasp what the hell is going on around him. He got fired from his fast food job last night. At McDonald’s.…

One very focused day
For some reason today, I was ON IT. I love days like this. I got a ton done around the house, including things that would’ve been weekend projects if I hadn’t done them today. The morning started with the bath fitter guy coming to replace the bent shower rod. Funny story…Boy #3 likes to play…

One Hundo
Today I reached 100 followers! I can’t even believe it! What began as a way for me to anonymously get used to speaking out with my voice and not censoring everything that was coming out of my mouth has turned into something bigger for me. I tried to have a blog so many times over…

Home…rested
So I took a couple days off from blogging to drive home on Tuesday and then I spent yesterday resting and relaxing after the vacation. It was nice to have that time off from everything. Today starts up with everything in normal life again. So far so good. Vacation is so good for clearing your…

Work Camp
I am feeling better today, less stuck. I have decided that the kids will spend part of their day picking up around here. I know that’s not very fun, but it’s got to be done. They’ve been better about cleaning lately, so hopefully there won’t be a huge fight when they find out that we…
