Back

Posting back over here. It may, or may not, be your cup of tea.

I hate this.

We still don't have an official reason, but when we woke up this morning, Mazzy was gone. She just wasn't breathing and she didn't have a heartbeat. I don't have a daughter anymore and there are no words that will fix this.

More for the Masses...

As usual, I updated Subtle Fluctuations. This time I talk about cleaning (ha), Mazzy's bout of croup and SNOW in Texas.

Before I got pregnant I had all of these ideas of what I was going to be able to achieve as a mother. I would stay home. I would take day trips with my wee one to visit friends. I was going to give her a life that any baby would envy. Malls, zoos, the aquarium, the …

Mom-mom and other ways to signal defeat

Mazzy is a funny kid. She laughs when it isn't funny. She cries only when you are watching. She has an amazing appetite for life, and by this I mean she puts EVERYThing in her mouth. Every. Thing. No joke.

Today's Post

"Baby got my back" from Subtle Fluctuaions


There are times in my marriage when I have to sort of tell myself, "Duh. Adam's totally loves me." He, like, homeroom loves me. He passes me notes during the class of our life that are all, "Your hair smells pretty. Wanna …

On Pause

From Subtle Fluctuations:

"Adam's father, Wayne, was found dead in his apartment on Friday."

I keep repeating the phrase, for one reason, or another, all day long. Sometimes it is said out loud, but mostly it is on a loop, echoing forever and constant in my head. The …

The End

I figured I should post this here, for all of you that have been keeping up with my saga in the last few years.  Wayne, Adam's father, passed away this morning.  The details are hazy, at this point, but the apartment management found him this morning.  They are …

People Food

I am going to try copy and pasting my Blog entries here. I might as well, right? Today's entry from Subtle Fluctuations:


My nephew, who is three and eats no food that might interfere with his sugar intake, snatched a crescent roll from his mother's plate last night, …

Here is a lovely picture of Mazzy, because I know that you have been missing her dearly...ha.

Observation

I find myself wondering, as I am raining down kisses on my squealing baby's cheekies, if my mother ever just enjoyed being a mother. I know that she was a responsible caregiver when I was a wee thing, but I have such a hard time visualizing her just laying on the floor …
