The most supercalifragilisticexpialidocious party EVER!
Sooooo… my sweet little ladybug turned one on July 29th and her Grammy (her mom’s mom) threw her a Ms. Rachel themed party. It was EXTRAVAGANT, to say the least. Now, I’ve had the experience of doing too much for a one-year-old’s birthday party. My grandbaby’s dad. We had Cookie Monster, a clown, etc. and…

Happy Birthday, Nana’s Sweet Girl!
A year ago today I had the amazing honor of welcoming my grandbaby into the world. It was one of the happiest days of my life… the anticipation of it couldn’t even compare to the joy I felt that day. She was here. My beautiful girl, Tiana. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! As I sit here typing this,…

The Best of Times and the Worst of Times
I am officially a grandma, a gigi, a granny, a NANA to a perfect little girl named Tiana. She came into the world on July 29, 2025 and my heart is bursting with love for her because, if you didn’t catch it the first time, SHE’S PERFECT. Chubby cheeks, long legs. a head full of…

The Dementia Saga Continues
It’s almost 2am on a Monday night. The little lady is sitting in the living room on the sofa with the TV off, refusing to go to bed. FINE. Sit there. I’m in my room listening for sounds of her moving while watching her on the camera. I’m not going to fight with her or…

Groundhog Day…….. AGAIN
I’m starting to realize that this (blog) has become the place I come to bitch and moan about how much I hate what dementia has done to my life. It’s my I-can’t-take-it-anymore complaint station. I live the same day over and over and over and over again and, yes, I’m gonna complain about it. As…

Dammit… I DID IT!!
On June 26, 2022, I submitted my very last assignment for my very last class to finish out my Bachelor’s Degree program at Southern New Hampshire University. I FUCKING DID IT!!! I graduated from Benjamin Banneker Academic High School in May 1986 and ever since then, off and on, I’ve been working toward this goal……

Same Day, Different Date… oh, what fun!
Sure, I know Groundhog Day was officially February 2nd this year, but I feel like I live it every day… Ever seen the movie with Bill Murray circa 1993? It’s when Bill Murray’s character relives Groundhog Day over and over (and over) again. That’s my life. Every day is the same. No sleeping in for…

Wanna Get Away?
Ever just feel like FUCK THIS… I’M OUT!? You too??? Day 300+ in a world of COVID-19 and I’m sick of everything… and damn near everybody too. I’m sitting here with Lillian and her dementia, laptop on my lap supposedly finishing homework (waiting for my brain to unfreeze), listening to the drip from a post-repair…

I. Hate. Dementia.
Dementia SUCKS! I mean it REALLY FUCKING SUCKS. I’m sitting here with my homework… staring at the pages… moving from topic to topic, not learning a damn thing because every few minutes I have to stop what I’m doing to repeat one of the same questions I’ve already answered 100 times today. I have exactly…

Change is GOOD.
Now repeat it to yourself ten times. It’s what I’m telling myself constantly these days. CHANGE IS GOOD… Then that little voice says to me: it’s good when you WANT IT. When you don’t want it? It can kinda blow if you don’t have the right attitude. As I sat here staring at a blank screen,…
