Marriage Is For Kids

You don't have to be married to appreciate this post! However if you are in fact married then I know you will identify and will most certainly be guilty of at least a few of these lucky 13 reasons husbands and wives are like children (had to be fair and do wives too.)
Husbands Are Like Children Because...
  1. They leave pop cans and cups all around the house.
  2. They leave dirty clothes on the floor.
  3. They have trouble putting away their clean laundry/don't do it.
  4. They pretend they don't know how to do something or can't do it well in order to get out of it.
  5. They play video games.
  6. They leave things turned on or open - clear path of where they've been.
  7. They don't say anything or genuinely don't think anything's wrong when you're upset with them.
  8. They forget that their plans affect others.
  9. They like to tickle and chase you around the house.
  10. They love to play outside.
  11. They see things more simply in black and white.
  12. They like you to pick out their clothes.
  13. They love you unconditionally.
Wives Can Be Like Children Too Because...
  1. They pout or whine when they don't get their way.
  2. They like sparkly things.
  3. They need reminded that money doesn't grow on trees.
  4. They are picky eaters.
  5. They can cry easily.
  6. They get the giggles and can't stop.
  7. They do silly or goofy things that they think are cute but are annoying.
  8. They do bad or stupid things to get attention.
  9. They tell long stories, talk in circles and don't make sense.
  10. They aren't always good at sharing.
  11. They think the rules don't apply to them.
  12. They just want to make you happy.
  13. They love you unconditionally.

Symbols and Intrigue Galor: Dan Brown!

Have you read any of Dan Brown's novels?? If you haven't, you should. Right away. There's been some controversy surrounding his work in the past but I think regardless of personal religious beliefs, or lack thereof, they are indisputably interesting and SO good! Years ago I read "The Da Vinci Code" and absolutely loved the it. The movie was pretty good for what it was, from what I can remember. However I've heard "Angels and Demons" was even better. Sadly I didn't get around to reading that one before seeing the movie, which I loved, and can see why others said that story served a better novel than the other. As always, I'm sure there was more to the storyline surrounding the Vatican  and how it unraveled than they were unable to pull together in the movie but it's hard to imagine. Without reading it the movie seemed pretty intricate and complete but I know from experience that there's likely details or meaning that I didn't p...

Dear Parents, on the Return of School

Love letter to all you parents out there, with a special shout out to the parents who are also teachers!!  By now most schools are back in session in some way, shape or form and we're all feeling all the feelings. Or maybe you're too busy to (let yourself) feel anything right now and it's going to catch up with you later. Or you're a big fake it til you make it person. Or you're a robot. Those are your options. The word "unprecedented" has been used an unprecedented number of times. So much so that there's a meme wishing for 'precedented' times.  No matter what your school year is starting like, there's some element of change: new protocol, procedures, schedule, physical location, teaching style, requirements, and resources, oh my! So much research, analysis, planning and  work  has been done in order to get this school year under way. Whether your kids are distance learning online at home, going to the actual building, ...

The Female Vote

This past week there have been countless articles about the 100th anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote. I was so excited I bought a shirt off Etsy.   August 26 th  is recognized as Women’s Equality Day, commemorating the 1920 adoption of the 19 th Amendment to  the U.S. Constitution . As with most of our country's history, the suffrage movement was not without its own issues of racism and discrimination. Black women were not widely included in conventions nor always recognized for their work in the movement. While we celebrate 100 years of the female vote, it's important to remember that women in many states still faced years of unfair obstacles and discrimination in trying to vote. Black women (and men) continued the fight for true voting rights and in 1965 the  Voting Rights Act  was signed into law. This significant legislation provided clear legal support to ensure equal voting rights fo...
