Happy Tears, Selfish Tears

Two weeks ago, my husband and I sent my youngest child off to college. I have heard stories throughout the years of the enormity of this event, but it was not until my son slowly faded away amongst the flocks of people at the security checkpoint that it finally hit me. My time as a…

I love fresh ginger. I also love lemonade, so combining the two is a match made in heaven for me. Just adding a small amount of ginger syrup to a glass of lemonade takes the summer staple to new heights of refreshment and delivers a great kick to the taste buds that is sure to…
Goldilocks and the Potato Soup

April 15, 2020
A few days ago I found myself staring blankly at the meal list I had so painstakingly prepared right before the stay at home orders were issued. I remember thinking at the time how useful it would be in making sure my family had 3 square and healthy meals a day for the next month…

“In times of great stress or adversity, it’s always best to keep busy, to plow your anger and your energy into something positive.” – Lee Iacocca Words to live by as we, the human race, face such a small, yet seemingly insurmountable foe. It is easy to be sucked in by the mass media coverage…
My First 30 Days of Summer Break

July 10, 2019
“Summer, after all, is a time when wonderful things can happen to quiet people. for those few months, you’re not required to be who everyone thinks you are, and that cut-grass smell in the air and the chance to dive into the deep end of a pool give you a courage you don’t have the…
The last 30 days of school
by littlemisstwitch
May 10, 2019
As an educator, I have a unique opportunity that a majority of the working population does not have. I get to experience that magical time known as “the last 30 days of school.” We can all remember the excitement that those last days brought as a child–less homework, class outside, fun end of year projects.…
The Birth of Little Miss Twitch

May 5, 2019
Nickname: a usually descriptive name given instead of or in addition to the one belonging to a person, place, or thing. During dinner on our first date, my husband was introduced to my Tourette Syndrome in full force. I guess the excitement and nerves got the best of me and I was twitching all over…
Snow Day Serenity
by littlemisstwitch
February 4, 2019
Snow days are precious in my home. We see them as special “gifts of time” to enjoy our hobbies and each other. On these days we relax, eat leftovers and drink lots of hot chocolate. Time stands still on these days as Mother Nature forces us to stop and breathe for a bit. My favorite…
The Great Equalizer

January 19, 2019
Just as there are seasons in the weather, there are seasons in our lives–happy, sad, difficult, mournful, peaceful, challenging. With any luck those more difficult seasons, like a harsh winter, do not last very long and we can look forward to the welcoming warmth of Spring. It is the promise of that “rebirth” that gets…
For Daddy…

December 12, 2018
I have always been fascinated by how brilliantly the human brain connects our senses with memories–most especially sounds and music. With music being one of the grounding blocks for my life, I have a figurative soundtrack of memories in my head to recall the experiences I have had, and I love how just one note…
Walking in the Rain

October 2, 2018
I took a walk today–in the rain. Wait, let me back up a bit… I do not particularly like being “out” in the rain–and not because I am too frilly or feel like I will melt. I just do not like feeling damp and cold when I come back inside and smelling like wet dog…
A Few Flowers and the Lessons of RA
by littlemisstwitch
July 17, 2018
A few days ago I got to work in my yard and plant some flowers. I know, big deal-people play in their yards all the time. And we all have that friend on social media who posts their latest feats of gardening that would make even Martha Stewart jealous. So what, you ask, is so…
The Awkward Sleeve Ballet; aka Getting Dressed with Tourette’s
by littlemisstwitch
May 1, 2018
via Daily Prompt: Sleeve When you have Tourette Syndrome, the simple act of getting dressed can turn into a badly performed ballet. Take for instance the sleeve of a shirt. The sleeve, you see, has to be “just right” or else the tics become non-stop to the point where you are ripping off the shirt.…
To-Do Lists

April 29, 2018
I grew up in the dinosaur age of organization; there were no computers, PDAs, fancy apps or personal assistants like Siri to keep us on schedule and tidy. Sad to say, we had two options: an excellent memory, or pencil and paper. My mother (the quintessential queen of orderliness) was a fan of the latter…
A Journey Begins

February 22, 2018
The Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu once said, “The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.” What he failed to mention, however, was how difficult that first step could be. We’ve all been there–knowing where we want to go and how to reach our destination, yet petrified by the thought that once we start…
