Get Ready For a Fight …

Tammy — Fri, 17 May 2019 00:12:58 +0000

These past two years I’ve made a LOT of enemies (some things never change), received death threats, countered some vile and disgusting accusations, and I’ve been unfriended by the best haters in the business. I’m good with that. Since we last spoke, active shooters have become the new norm. When it began to escalate, I […]

Are Self Employed People Entrepreneurs or Slackers?

Tammy — Sat, 20 May 2017 07:00:39 +0000

I’ve been self employed for nearly 30 years. Last week at a networking meeting I was told by a hotshot recruiter that self employed people are just people who can’t find work or keep a job anywhere else. What the?!? I’m not sure I’ve ever been so insulted in my life. And that’s saying something, […]

The Savage Season

Tammy — Wed, 09 Nov 2016 20:26:17 +0000

The electorate has spoken and has given us Donald Trump as its president. The defeat for Hillary Clinton was swift and painful, and the only comfort many of us have is in the knowing that the savage season of the presidential election is over. While he did not win the popular vote, Mr. Trump will […]

When Love Fails You …

Tammy — Wed, 14 Sep 2016 05:59:09 +0000

I promised I would take care of her forever, watch over, protect, and never leave her. I made that promise to my mom when I was 5. I broke it 40 years later. She was a teenager when she married my dad; hastened by an unexpected pregnancy. I was born soon after. I remember her […]

Man vs. Dog

Tammy — Thu, 14 Jul 2016 07:00:47 +0000

I pick dog. Duh? I recently saw this declaration on Facebook that in order to find out who loves you more, your dog or your husband/boyfriend, try locking them both in the trunk of your car for 20 minutes then letting them out. Which one is happy to see you? Well, what do you expect […]

Love Is A Fickle Bitch … Sometimes You Just Get Lucky

Tammy — Wed, 06 Apr 2016 04:54:39 +0000

What is wrong with this picture? I swore I’d never marry again. But then again, I also swore I’d never drink tequila with the band, adopt more than one cat, or wear a strapless bra for as long as I lived. Needless to say, I’ve done all of them. Five weeks ago I married my BFF […]

Down But Not Out!

Tammy — Wed, 03 Feb 2016 06:52:53 +0000

You know those life events that take you out? Yeah, that’s pretty much how I have spent the last few weeks. I recently went in for what I told myself would be minor hand surgery. A bone was removed from my hand, some tendon work done and carpal tunnel fixed. A slam dunk when you […]

My Dear Fellow Christians …

Tammy — Tue, 10 Nov 2015 07:33:11 +0000

It was bad enough to be an apologizing Republican, now I have to be an apologizing Christian too? Good God Almighty (pun intended) people, what the hell has gotten into you? You’re offended with the Starbucks holiday cup because it doesn’t say Christmas to you, so you have declared that Starbucks is “waging war” on […]

Fear & Marriage Go Together Like a Horse & Carriage

Tammy — Wed, 28 Oct 2015 04:59:03 +0000

Marriage. The word hasn’t crossed these lips for years. I wrote a book (quite a successful one I might add) about the virtues of being unmarried. I am the poster child for living single past 50. Since my divorce, I’m afraid of marriage. There. I said it out loud. Let’s digress. I moved in […]
