the domestic flunky: April 2015
http://thedomesticflunky.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 16, 2015. I should be heading home from work about now. But I don't want to. I'm just so very tired, and I need a minute. The last couple of months have been up and down and mostly up but, man, the downs. Step-motherhood. What to say? I'm Leigh. And Leigh is pretty good, but Leigh's not Mom. Sometimes I feel resentful and angry and sort of invisible, which isn't good. What do you mean by manipulate? I mean make a laundry list to force the outcome that I want.". Stating what's true isn't a...

Sunday, February 6, 2011. Weekly ten: schooled by snow. 1) Snow is nice. the first day. By day four, not so much. 3) Cake Boss, Millionaire Matchmaker. And Housewives of Beverly Hills. Can get you through just about any crisis. including acute snow-bound-boredom syndrome. Sadly, I did not read a single book during my snow-cation. Sad. Sad. Sad. What have I become? 4) When faced with the annoyance of freezing temperatures and arctic breezes, do not assume that your dog will pee in her usual. Car excursion...

Saturday, January 22, 2011. Caution: Endless chatter about soap operas (and my dream of someday writing for one) about to ensue. And now to get down to business. Then attempt to bomb Sonny's car, poetic justice style. Something will, of course, go wrong, and they will end up trapped together for at least 72 hours under a boulder or something and inevitably fall in love. It will be perfect. Then, like so many disposable characters before her, Lola/Saffron will die on *her* wedding day. Lol (Lots of luck!

Friday, February 20, 2015. So, here's the deal: I'm a new wife. I'm also a new step mom. From what I gather ( picture long talks with newly married friends over nachos and whatever they're drinking. New Wife" is a challenging transition for almost everyone. That's cool. Challenges are good. They stretch us. They help us grow. It's hard for lots of reasons. It's hard because my guy and I. Who've known each other about a year now,. And we ALL have our moods. ALL OF US. And, duh, kids. I don't think my husb...

the domestic flunky: May 2015
http://thedomesticflunky.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 6, 2015. The truth will set you free. So, here's a very frustrating truth: Sometimes (insert smirk, chuckle or full on GUFFAW here) it doesn't matter who's right. And it's not even that no one cares or that no one wants to hear it or that no one wants to admit who's right. In fact, everyone in the room could nod in unison and chant like a Greek chorus, "You are adn ever shall be. right! A panel of experts could expertly decree, "Yep. She's right." And it wouldn't change a dang thing. To fo...

Monday, April 26, 2010. The following is a recap of my visit to the Dallas King Spa and Sauna on Saturday, April 24, 2010. 8212;was quiet simple: To soak in relaxing waters, you had to get naked. Now flash forward some twenty years, and picture me at lunch with my dear friend from Seoul, Sun Hee. We’ve just finished off the last strip of bulgogi, a traditional Korean barbeque dish, and she says something like, “There’s a new Korean bathhouse. We should go! I nearly choked. Then I staredt to think,. True,...

the domestic flunky: eleven

Wednesday, January 19, 2011. The total number of points I scored my first night of racquetball. Eleven glorious points! Sure, it took me 5 matches to get there (0,0,1,4,6). I loved every minute. Especially the one where six middle-aged fat guys (any one of whom- I confress- could have creamed me) were making faces at me from the other side of the glass. That was priceless. I'm also pretty sure it means I'm 'in'. My booty's gonna be in some major pain tomorrow. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). You'll l...

Thursday, November 18, 2010. As the holidays approach. A variation on last year's theme that seems so much cooler now that GLEE has introduced the term "mash-up" into the vernacular. 0 people with something to say. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). All about the flunky. I'm a 40-something who used to have too much time on her hands. until she hit the ground running with her hot hubby and never-dull insta-family. Holy cow. View my complete profile. What i write about. Conversations that never really happened.

Saturday, April 9, 2011. Getting out of dodge. For anyone who has the blues, may I suggest a little more green. And I started thinking about what I wanted and what I could get and how I could get it. Hence, the sort. Now, to be honest, most of my woes went into the "No Freaking Clue How That's Going to Happen" pile. Many of those items are still there (I'm just a little more at peace about them now). And then there was Ireland. No Freaking Clue" could not claim Ireland. 1 people with something to say.
