a few years ago, i wrote a blog post about Bryson. he wasn’t reading. or writing. or interested in school. he was, like, 8. i was so very discouraged about the whole blessed thing, and i was so sick of everyone and their concern about it that i decided to do what i kept reading […]

so you know i’m following the biggest loser. like a maniac. (really, it’s a little sick. i’m almost done with season 10 now.) i bought a bodymedia “link” unit two weeks ago…you know, just like the contestants wear in every season. (image found at http://bodymedia.com) i might be a little addicted to it, too. it […]

i’m sitting on the couch this morning. i decided today that since i had to be up early to put the finishing touches on a cake to be delivered before 8 am (by my awesome husband, to his cousin), and since i stayed up until 1 am working on said cake…i would turn on the […]
grouchy post.

that was a warning. this will be a grouchy post about hypothyroidism. today i’m pouting, so i’m going to pout publicly. attractive, right? frankly, i don’t care. it’s where i live lately, when it comes to all this crap. so, let’s be bold and honest about this condition today, shall we? if you get squeamish […]

God and i are in a tough spot right now. have you ever had one of those spots? the tough ones? the ones where you are so angry about the direction things have headed in your life, so frustrated that you have made the best choices you felt you could possibly make–confirmed by wisdom from […]

as in -thyroidism. i own that now. i have looked at the symptoms and the treatments and the science behind this for probably two years now, always thinking, “huh. those symptoms sound like me,” but never really admitting that it could warrant testing (and, hello, no health insurance). to be honest, I’ve been saying, “noooo, […]
I can’t write. Again.
Posted by malindar in All About Mindy, Life, Reflection on February 16, 2013
There is so much to write about…but nothing to write. Yeah, I know that doesn’t make any sense, but it’s reality. There is stuff…and I don’t want to say it out loud. And writing the words is “out loud.” Teenagers are so hard, friends. They are rocking my world. And yes: they. I have two […]
so irritating.

i have a splinter in the side of my right palm. it freaking hurts. i dug at it with tweezers. picked at it with my nails. poked it with a pin. i proved, once again, that i am NOT ambidextrous. i put triple antibiotic and a bandaid on it last night and went to bed, […]
dumb luck

i had babies once. in my mind, it wasn’t very long ago. in my mind, those babies are all still pretty little. so when i yell up the steps, “OK, small children, it’s time for dinner!” and i get no responses, i quickly remember why. because, duh, mom, we’re so not small children. whatever you’re […]
selfish.
Posted by malindar in All About Mindy, Life, Reflection on September 29, 2012
i am selfish. ever noticed something about yourself that sucks…and realized how serious the issue really is because you suddenly realize how it could be affecting the people around you? i take pride in the fact that i give. i work really hard at giving. i work really hard at working. all. the. time. i […]
