Actually this missive will have nothing to do with mothers. Julia Sweeney, an SNL alum who I remember working at the Fox Theater in Spokane when I was a teenager, wrote a book with that title, and I loved it so much I always say that instead of if it’s not one thing it’s another. Anyway, that’s how today went. I didn’t get a bloody thing done that I wanted to. Between plumbing issues, requiring our handyman to go in and out of the house multiple times, along with making loud electric toolish noises that scared the cats, grocery delivery, all of which happening at the same time, I didn’t handle things very well. I have issues with chaos and pandemonium. So I did what I felt I had to do. I went to lay down and had a big old nap. I’m happy to report that it did help. But nothing concrete got accomplished. Well, okay, I did make a pretty darn yummy meat loaf, and I’m writing this blog post, so I suppose I can put those two things in the plus column. I have committed to writing in this blog at least three times a week. There is, of course, a part of my brain that’s saying oh sure, we’ll see how long that lasts. We’ve been here before. But I’m feeling different about it this time. For one thing, I don’t always have to be profound. I won’t always have political and/or cultural takes. Sometimes my posts will be like this one, more personal in nature. And you know what? That’s okay. I already know I’m not going to get millions of views (heck, I’d be happy with dozens), so I think I can consider this my personal writing space. If you’re reading this, thanks for joining my flight of fancy. I hope you find something to enjoy along the way. Catch you all on Friday, if I can keep up the schedule.
