A BLOG FOR BAD ASS BITCHES

This week has been enlightening. I think I can say it's been a pretty good week. Most of you are aware June is known as "Pride Month." Personally, I have to admit I don't normally pay much attention to that stuff. When it comes up in conversations I usually just say someone's sexual preference doesn't really concern me. Actually, my standard answer is I don't really care who anyone sleeps with. That being said, I'd prefer if others didn't sleep with my husband, but other than

Oh, yeah, there are some deep questions in this workbook, but it got me thinking and asking myself to consider what I do think about soulmates. Quite honest

I'm not even going to lie. This post is a braggy mom one. I simply can't help it. Hope, my oldest daughter, has created a short film for the Easter Seal's Disability Film Challenge again this year. Most of you already know, but Hope has Cerebral Palsy. She has Ataxia (tremors) in all four limbs. All the doctors have always said she just didn't cook long enough.
