Exploits of a Crazy Woman

My favorite poem is by Pamela Redmond Satran and with today being International Women’s Day, I thought I would share it.  There are definitely as few things that I can tick off…black lace bra..tick….cordless drill…tick and a juicy past that I cant wait to retell….TICK

Things Every Woman Should Have And Should Know By Pamela Redmond Satran

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE… enough money within her control to move out and rent a place of her own even if she never wants to or needs to…

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE… something perfect to wear if the employer or date of her dreams wants to see her in an hour…

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE… a youth she’s content to leave behind…

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE… a past juicy enough that she’s looking forward to retelling it in her old age…

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE… a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra…

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE… one friend who always makes her laugh… and one who lets her cry…

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE… a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in her family…

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE… eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems, and a recipe for a meal that will make her guests feel honored…

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE… a feeling of control over her destiny…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW… how to fall in love without losing herself…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW… how to quit a job, break up with a lover, and confront a friend without ruining the friendship…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW… when to try harder… and when to walk away…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW… that she can’t change the length of her calves, the width of her hips, or the nature of her parents…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW… that her childhood may not have been perfect… but it’s over…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW… what she would and wouldn’t do for love or more…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW… how to live alone… even if she doesn’t like it…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW… whom she can trust, whom she can’t, and why she shouldn’t take it personally…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW… where to go… be it to her best friend’s kitchen table… or a charming inn in the woods… when her soul needs soothing…

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW… what she can and can’t accomplish in a day… a month… and a year…

This page has been created as much for me as for anyone else, as an outlet for my busy life, to be able to share the ideas and thoughts that I have that occupy my mind.

I love to create and I am passionate about so many things from cake decorating to parties and from hobbies to crafts and of course my family and friends.

As a suffer of depression and anxiety, it is my hope is that I can share the good things that happen in my life along with the things that challenge me.   It is a topic that is close to my heart and needs to brought out into the open so those that suffer can know they are supported and that the people that don’t understand it can be educated.

So I hope you like my blog and what I have to share.  There will be serious topics, funny random things and pictures of the things I have created.  There will be travels to the other side of the world and updates on the mad things I get up too and of course there will be a few cocktails along the way.

You will soon have no doubts as to why I have  given this blog the name…
