this is NOT glitter.
I decided I needed a little glitter in my life today. So, following a whim (and a pin, of course), I decided to try this little gem: because I generally have very good luck with Pinterest recipes, projects, crafts etc. Now, I have to tell you, I was skeptical. It didn’t make a whole lot […]
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 […]

So, a month ago… …I married him. 🙂 I know. I haven’t blogged in a long time. And much has happened…hehe…you know…like my whole life has changed a little bit. Just a little bit. What’s funny is that I can’t even remember where I left off in the story except to tell you that I […]
An Aside
I have no idea why I found myself on myspace today…you know, where I haven’t done ANYTHING in over 3 years…hehe…but I did. And as I glanced through the nothingness that has happened there in those three years…I found an old blog post. I blogged there…hmm. Five times? But this one…priceless. Sometimes in the midst […]
a match.
Posted by malindar in Uncategorized on July 14, 2012
In April, I made a decision. I joined eHarmony and Match.com on the same day. I know. Crazy. But there it is. You see, I’m a 38-year-old mother of three children who walk shoulder to shoulder with me everywhere I go. I drive a mini van. I go to the grocery store, church, the library, […]
Stuck
Posted by malindar in All About Mindy, Life on July 5, 2012
But it’s funny…this time I’m stuck for a different reason. Not because I don’t have anything to say…but because…there is so much. You see… …I fell in love. I know, right? I mean, if you know me, you knew it would happen. Someone actually said to me not long before the divorce was final that […]

Apparently, for the rest of my life, I’m going to wake up on this morning and remember. As I walk through the day, I will remember exactly what I went through that morning…every movement…every motion…every fear…every laugh. The trip to Dunkin Donuts sans makeup. The coffee spilled on my perfect tea-dyed shoes. The comb sewed […]
