20 Reasons For Missing Pregnancy | Not | By Val Enders

You’ve Got To Be Kidding! I came across an article written by Dagny Scott Barrios entitled “Twenty Reasons You’ll Miss Being Pregnant”. That headline really caught my eye, and my brain immediately shouted out “Are you KIDDING ME?” “Now, now,” I replied mentally to the grey orb. “Give it a chance. There may be something you’re missing here.” Deep down …

I Just Do Not Measure Up | By Val Enders

Men and women speak different languages, and relate differently to certain situations. A case in point is how we measure things. I am the first to admit that I am, what Hubby lovingly refers to as, “Measuring impaired.” He, on the other hand, is the King of the tape measure. In our house we have several measuring contraptions. Drawers in every room …

Just Play It Cool Girl | By Val Enders

Oh boy, suddenly it’s winter! Although there is not much snow on the ground, the Hubby and I know it’s here. I think he really dreads the winter, even if it turns out to be a mild one, simply because of my feet. Yes, I said my feet. I’m sure if you brought the subject up with other husbands, they …

Very Slippery Situation | By Val Enders

I’ve often wondered why my forefathers didn’t settle in a warmer climate. I am convinced that the only reason I am not living up by the Bering Sea, is because the oxen and horses on the wagon train must have been bogged down in snow, and couldn’t go any farther North.  That is the only reason I can think of, as …

Every Woman Is A Daughter | By Val Enders

This morning, as usual, my first stop was the bathroom to wash my face and get ready for the day ahead. I stared into the mirror, but what I saw was not me looking back, but my mother!  I knew that someday it would happen. Occasionally, Mom would announce in a loving voice that someday I would be just like …

Rats | Christmas Is Coming | By Val Enders

Hubby and I were out shopping the other day, and we noticed that although Halloween is on the doorstep, retailers are trucking out the Christmas goodies. I have to go to the dollar store on the way home,” I announced. “Do you mind stopping?” “I hate that store. For one thing, there is hardly anything in there that costs just …

I Only Have Eyes For You | By Val Enders

I think I need new glasses. I say this for a number of reasons, but mainly because Hubby says I need new ones, and I have to agree. The other day while we were driving I said to him “For Pete’s sake, look at that! I’ve never seen a Nun on a bicycle taking a dog for a run before.” …

Warning | Payback Happens | By Val Enders

The axiom “Time flies when you’re having fun” must have certainly been coined by a vacationing person. Although it sounds corny, it definitely is true. Our wonderful vacation to Alaska is over, and the two weeks we were gone just blew by. Now it’s payback time. You know what I mean. People know and fear the “payback”. Everyone that you …

North To Alaska | By Val Enders

I know that you can probably guess from the title, where we are going on our long awaited vacation. As if we haven’t had enough of snow and ice last winter, we have booked a cruise to Alaska. A Disney cruise. With the kids, and grandkids, no less. We like to live on the edge, Hubby and I, and this …

It Is All Greek To Me | By Val Enders

I was always under the impression that I knew how to speak, and could communicate fairly well with the other members of my species. Sadly, it seems I have been deluding myself. Not only can I not understand people who have moved here from Newfoundland, but I have found out recently that I can’t decipher rap songs, or some toddler-eez …

How the Heck Did I Get Here | By Val Enders

Those of us who are computer savvy, and by that I mean people who can at least turn on the machine, occasionally need to avail ourselves of the search engine in order to help us answer a question or two. Searching on the Internet is really an art form, and for the lazy person such as myself, that is way …

Clueless In The Sixties | By Val Enders

Today is my daughter’s birthday. Finally, I can let a little of the responsibility and worry go. She is old enough to make good decisions, and if not well, she will have to live with the consequences. But I’m not worried. I don’t know how it happened, but Hubby and I have managed to raise two kids, who turned out …
