S-S-Site Update and A Personal Status Report

by Leslie

February 1st has come and gone. Have you been to My Mommy’s Place to see what’s new?

Please, go now.

Make sure you enter the contest! You can win a mug and one item of your choice from Sweetie Pie Hats - your source for custom embroidery for the whole family! All you need to do is share a story of love.

And if you feel like you have even more to share, consider submitting something else for publication at My Mommy’s Place. You can do it. I believe in you.

I also believe that life is kicking my butt right now. Last week was rough. The family got sick. It was All About The 80s week. And it was time to launch my monthly updates at My Mommy’s Place. And there was other stuff. What it all added up to was that I was tired. Depleted. Almost completely drained of my life force.

Then, I found something. I was searching for the song “The New Style” by The Beastie Boys on YouTube for my All About The 80s music post and I found this.

(And just a little backstory here: I was all about the album License to Ill in the 80s. I had convinced my grandma to buy it for me - after my mother had already told me NO! YOU CANNOT HAVE IT! - so I treasured it for many reasons. “The New Style” was one of my favorite songs.)

I didn’t include this in my 80s music post, because it isn’t an actual Beastie Boys video. It is something far greater.

Sometimes, when you’re at your lowest, God sends a rainbow that ends right at your heart and reaffirms your belief that life is good. This was my rainbow. Check it out. Probably without your kids. My mom didn’t tell me I couldn’t have it for no reason.

Ah, haven’t thought about the Beastie Boys in almost ten years.
