I Am Just a Worthless Stay at Home Mom
A couple years ago I needed to get a job. After looking through the wanted ads and checking out all the job listings in my area, I realized to my shock that I had no marketable skills whatsoever. I was a grown woman in my late thirties and the only place I was qualified to work turned out to be a retail store for little more than minimum wage. You see, I had been a stay-at-home mom for the last 15 years.

Cycling as a Feminist Act
Feminism has helped me learn a lot about myself and the world. Perhaps one of the most surprising things it has taught me is how to ride a bike. By this, I don’t mean how to balance, pedal, and look where I wanted to go. My brilliant dad had taught me that long before either of us would have used the word "feminism" to describe our actions. No, I mean how to actually use a bike in daily, adult life without unnecessary injury and panic attacks. And it turns out, doing so helps me grow as a feminist.

A Mile in Her Feet
It started out as a joke, really. I was attending one of my best female friend's bachelorette party and as a part of the low-key celebrations, the plan was to go to the salon to get our nails did. I didn't really feel like disappearing midway through the day so I agreed to go with. After all, I had heard about men getting manicures and pedicures and absolutely loving it.

Odis The Great
My name is Odis. I am a four-month-old German Shepherd. I weigh 50lbs. My hobbies consist of running, playing and drinking all the water I can lap up. My mommy and daddy are proud to have me. I keep them on their toes every day. I love when they come home from work because then I have someone to play with. I love to jump all over my mommy when she comes home. Her shoes are very yummy. Sometimes when she takes her shoes off after she gets home I like to take them and hide them from her.

Don't Buy Your Kid A Guinea Pig
Guinea pigs are not the kind of pet to get your kid to teach them responsibility. They require way more than you think. First things first, they have very complicated diets, require supplements, a large living space, vet bills, they live in groups so a single pig will be unhappy, grooming, and exercise.

Our Autism Journey
I knew instantly that I was expecting my second baby owing to the fact my sense of smell was heightened beyond belief! I was convinced, just like with my first pregnancy that people were not using potpourri but savoury rice to fragrance their homes!
