Me: Do you think they have 'family' rooms on the psychiatric unit?

DH: Who in the hell would want to room with their family? When I lose my shit I'm going into seclusion

Marriage 2.0 Goes Offline

I never said I was the perfect wife. But who knew I wasn't meant to be a wife or mother at all. Here I am, six months post-separation from husband #2 and I'm trying really hard to maintain my faith in the possibility that maybe, just maybe, I will finally be happy. Or maybe, I'm meant for other things. Perhaps I've been fighting my way down the wrong path. I think it's time to forget my fear, forget what others think, forget the 'shoulds'...it's time to pick up that machete and forge my own way...one day at a time.

I really didn't want to do it, I didn't want to wade into this silly photoshop /body double war. As most of you already know, Ms. Moore was photographed for the December cover of W magazine.

Behold this attempt at humour by Sarah Hampson of The Globe and Mail : Welcome to Midlife, complete with Bingo Wings and Vampire Dinner Lips In a nutshell, Ms. Hampson goes on to describe the 'cute' names that have been given to various body parts on a middle aged woman: bitch wrinkle, bingo arms, vampire dinner lips and diaper butt to name a few. If you need me to actually identify which body parts go with which moniker, you're too young to be reading my blog and should take your wrinkle-free butt elsewhere. Call me vain and shallow, my loved ones frequently do, but I'm really having a tough time with this aging thing. Love it or hate it, eternal youth is the Holy Grail for a lot of women. I'd hate to put myself in that camp. I like to think of myself as far more centered and accepting of the changes that I'm noticing. But *f...
