Dear Shop From Home: I think it’s time to lay it all out there. I’m old enough to know “healthy” relationships take work, and you, my dear Shop from Home, have left me feeling unappreciated and neglected. I’m a mom and I’ve got a family to feed. That means I depend on “YOU” to get […]
This week, I had another “first” in the wild world of motherhood. After shopping in my local mall for a few hours, my almost pre-schooler, announced she had to “go to the potty right away.” Of course her declaration came just as my other darling child decided to throw the mother of all tantrums in […]
Frances and I were en route to my local hospital for a doctor’s appointment. It was a cold, December night and we had taken a cab to our destination. Once arrived, Franny lead me towards the front door of the building. She stopped midway, indicating something was in our path. I extended my hand to […]
Everybody has a bucket list, right? You know the things we want to do before we kick the bucket…croak…bite the big one? Well last night, I crossed one off my list. No, I didn’t skydive into some exotic location. Wait for it…… Wait for it…… I got to be “live” on the air for QVC’s […]
About a month ago, I divulged some pretty unsettling health information to my Blind Motherhood followers. In the span of one overall crappy week, my dermatologist diagnosed me with alopecia (I’m now bald) and my cardiologist informed me my heart was hardening (I’m 36 years old with a 50-year-old heart). In the weeks since getting […]

What the hell is up with that, Victoria? I mean, can a blind chick just buy a bra or must she go bra-less? “Mostly Wonderful” and […]
If you read my blog, then hopefully, you have read one of my absolute favorite pieces, “How Being A Blind Mom Is Like Being on the Walking Dead.” I am a huge, super fan of the show. From 9pm to 10pm every Sunday, I don’t want to be bothered by anyone. No kids clawing at me. […]
We have a strict rule in our house…Sunday nights, from 9-10pm, both kids must be in bed. There is no talking. No cell-phones and absolutely no weekend sex. Ain’t nobody got time for that when they could be watching Rick Grimes and Daryl Dixon take on a herd of walkers! The post-apocalyptic world of zombies versus […]
Dear Starbucks: You may have noticed the tremendous “buzz” all across the Internet and social media regarding your controversial holiday cup. Having previously adorned your cups with polar bears and snowflakes, this year’s choice of a simplistic red design threw some particularly religious people into a bit of a tizzy. Many Christians got their tinsel […]
