Wife On The Go

I know, I know.  You all are getting sick of my incessant divorce and/or NCAA articles.  But by now, you should realize I am passionate about fairness for them both. My situation is a little unique, as my educational background is in legal assisting.  I went into the field as a means to protect myself, […]

Nothing will clue you into how lame a project is faster than crew jumping a sinking ship like rats.  Recently, the director, Sam Taylor-Johnson, announced her departure from the 50 Shades franchise.  The screenwriter, who could only improve upon E.L. James’ ponderous, often torturous writing, Kelly Marcel, has abandoned ship. Not only is James a […]

In an earlier article, I wrote about the reasons why you should watch football with your man.  I watch with my boyfriend because the trade-off is so worth it – he watches college basketball with me.  It is the one thing I am super-passionate about, so much so that I am kind of annoying during […]

A number of years ago, I turned the Big 4-0.  Why do we refer it as that?  It should be called “4-0 almost dead not the new 20 this sucks big ones”.   My friends can tell you – when I was in my 30’s, I was active, my metabolism kicked ass, I was hardly ever […]

I was in the Girl Scouts until I was 17 years old, and was awarded the highest honor you can receive while in the trenches – the coveted Gold Award.  A friend of mine was in another troop for about the same amount of time, and we joked that once you get into the Girl […]

The experts agree that money is one of the biggest trouble makers in marriages today. It’s one of the most common things we argue about. It’s also sort of mysterious. If you’re lucky, you learn how to manage your money from your parents or you learn it through trial and error as a young adult. […]

In case you haven’t noticed, or caught on, or live under a rock – I love college basketball.  I love the ups and the downs, the high seeds beating the low seeds, the Cinderella stories, the upsets.  I love everything about it, even when my brackets (yes, I said “brackets”) are blown. Unfortunately, there are […]

Have you ever really put any thought into who does what at home? What do you take care of on a day-to-day or week-to-week basis? What is your husband or significant other responsible for? Do your kids have chores? It’s crazy to think how much the answers to these questions have changed for us in […]

There are so many wonderful things that come with pregnancy – Planning, shopping, and meeting your little one are just a few of them. What about all of the things that we could seriously do without, though? There are no less than 4 things that I don’t miss about being pregnant. Gaining weight – This […]

Do you ever feel as if you’re trying to do too much and that you’re stretched too thin? Do you ever feel as though everything would be perfect if you could just add a few more hours to your days? Does walking on a tight rope seem somehow easier than juggling all of the balls […]

Remember back in the Stone Ages when you were in your teens?  You were the perfect child – never lying to your parents, never experimenting with drugs, cigarettes or alcohol. You made perfect grades, were super-popular and had the most wonderful boyfriend ever. Okay, not one shred of that is true, but you expect your […]

With the NCAA Tournament heating up, upsets breaking brackets and Cinderella trying on the slipper, you have to wonder: what if life could mirror the Tourney?  What if life was “one-and-done” under certain circumstances? It could apply to any situation.  Relationships?  According to NCAA Rules, the offending player is subject to ejection, or the “act […]

There’s a growing movement to replace the face of Andrew Jackson on the $20 bill with the face of a woman.  While I feel a little sorry for poor old Andrew Jackson, I can think of some great American women who would certainly be deserving of the honor.  There’s a list floating around the internet […]

We all know that stress and worry is not good. In fact it is a number one killer. It causes high blood pressure, heart disease and multiple other diseases and not just on the physical side. It also affects your mental and your spiritual sides. It is up to you to choose to take control […]

I have a lot of great memories from my childhood! We did so many fun things that I already know my kids are going to miss out on. It makes me sad to think about them missing out on the memories that I have, but they will make their own memories. After all, there are […]
