The Raw Vegan: Part XXXIII, Relative Quiet

Date June 10, 2008

During the months to follow the move, DS2 moved from school to school, trying to find his niche. It was hard on all of us but harder on him than anyone else. We’d been advised to use “tough love” but that didn’t work when he went to my mother and she chose to take him [...]

The Raw Vegan: Part XXXII, Moving Again

Date June 8, 2008

With DH back with the pilot pool in Atlanta, his absences from home were longer and more frequent. I was beginning to find out living on the ranch wasn’t as pleasant as I’d thought at first. It was hard to cope with DS2 when DH was gone. He was full into his early teens and [...]

The thought never crossed my mind. In my world, if [...]

My Weekend

Date June 1, 2008

I know, I know. I’m supposed to be writing the umpteenth chapter of my life but I’m exercising my right to change my mind if I want to. It is my blog and I could just go to bed, ya know!
Twinkle was thrilled to get dry cat food. She still has a little left. I’ll [...]
