The Shy Mom Comes Out

It is weird but it seems as the older I get, the more shy I become. You would not think that so if you ever met me- I am a blast! I am the one that shuts down a party and will dance most the night away. Being a mom, rare are the days that I get the opportunity to perform this act. I will meet other moms in the park and out on our SAHM adventures.

I have to admit that I have been a little less shy about meeting and contacting new moms. In fact, I am planning a mommy date this week to get some much needed Mediterranean food. How? Facebook, of course. I am so late on this so may be you are rolling your eyes but if you are not here is how. Get into a group that does a LOT of activities and join them on a couple of things. I am signed up with a Chicago-based group called Just Like Me: Connecting Multicultural Families. The families are amazing! They are not just husband and wife and their kids but single moms with biological and adoptive children. They are parents who are not married but have a child. I have yet to see a gay couple but I believe there is a lesbian couple in the mix. Highly diverse make up and great personalities!

Unfortunately, you have to submit to the darkside but if you are not on now and you want to get in on some great groups here is what you do. . . DON'T ADD FAMILY!!!! If you want to connect with them on facebook, create two profiles. Trust me on this one. Grandma should not see you post about sexual positions.

. . . *looks around*. . . I'm out of here. I have to get to my work before the boy wakes up and I have coffee. No coffee yet makes me a little groggy.

The Great Conjunction- Function: What does it all mean?

Image
 If you are living under a rock or not into Google, you most likely did not see this picture:  So, if you did see this and think: how cute! Let me click on this. You already know. So, today is December 21st which is the winter solstice. If you are in the Northern Hemisphere, it marks the astrological first day of winter is the longest night of the year. What you may not know is that two planets are aligned so it appears as if they are giving each other a "high-five". They call this a conjunction when planets are aligned. How cute, right? They have not been this close since 1663, so this is an epic event. So, you will be seeing something that Galileo saw when he devised telescopes. This event happens every 20 years but every 321 years or so where you can see it in great detail. Both of these planets are beautiful, not like Earth but beautiful. Now, if you are like me and live in an area of light pollution, most likely you will see a star and a planet. Here, in Chicago proper, ...

Where does the Time go?

Image
 I know where my time goes- into treating patients. I am loving this life of treating numerous and multiple patients. Maybe from the suppression of seeing accident and worker's comp patients.  That is really me treating- no Photostock/AI pictures! Side Note: This was created in February 2025. It was stopped and completed in April 2025.  With changes in the schedule, it has been difficult to maintain this blog. I am keeping current and will begin to have a schedule where I post once a month. Wish me luck!

Food, Air and Water Show and NAILS

Image
Today has looks very similar to yesterday- work out, eat when you can, read, clean, computer searches for jobs along with ideas and concepts. This morning I went for a run and it looked like rain so I shortened the run and went a little faster just because I did not want to be like the old guy in the tale "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" and get struck by lightning. Hubby somewhat shocked me today because he asked about the Air and Water Show. I asked why and he thought it would be good for both of us to go either this year or next year. I have always hated the Air and Water Show because when I lived two blocks from the lakefront I could never nap or focus because of the noise of the planes. One thing about living in the city I do not like and that is all the noise pollution. I have pretty sensitive hearing so at times my hearing goes out for a day once it went out for three days and when I say goes out I mean it feels and sounds like someone put cotton in both my ears...
