Peace in the Kingdom: No Conflicts Allowed
In my kingdom, things are peaceful here. With the exception of sudden outbursts of dogs barking at the squirrels, leaves, shadows or a neighbor walking by. No hatred exists. As long as you don’t count the one I feel toward barking. No wars are waged, unless all the bathrooms are occupied. There are no borders…

10 Boredom Busters
I, the Queen, am not a boring person. Typically, I’m not bored, either. I can usually find ways to entertain myself to distract me from the boringness of this particularly inactive summer that I’ve been having. Sure, I’ve been doing stuff. Things. But not every single day. Which is probably what makes me appreciate the…

Tables May Turn But The Queen Can Always Restore Order
Once upon a time, the old Queen…the one that wrote about anything and everything and didn’t care about the backlash..wrote about the fact that parents have sex. And the other fact that her royal pain in the asses..er…princesses… seemed to be eavesdropping in on the Royal Chamber when the Royal Couple was copulating. Naughty, naughty,…

A Dozen Reasons for a Dozen Years
We’ve been married for 12 years. A dozen years. That happened fast. This is the first year that I almost forgot about our anniversary. And by almost, I mean..I forgot about it until I remembered a couple days ago. I completely forgot the date. Not because I don’t love my husband. In fact, I love…

13 Things NOT on the Queens Bucket List
First of all, before the Queen starts making her list, she has an announcement to make. The Queen has determined she despises writing in 3rd person. It’s so…affected. And the Queen, despite her Royalness, is not even close to being affected…unless the effect is necessary. So the Queen will be switching to 1st person, from…

A love letter to my children
To My Children, I love you. And that is what sometimes makes this mothering thing scary. There is no feeling more powerful…and powerless…than the love I have for you. You accuse me of not remembering. The problem is, I remember. I remember all too well. I remember doing things I shouldn’t be doing. I know…

And the Queen gets a Mini-Staycation
In the Kingdom, days are busy. There is schlepping to and fro. There is the feeding of mouths. There is the constant switcharoo of washer to dryer to dining room table where the laundry sits and awaits folding. There is diplomacy and refereeing. Then again, the Queen may just repeating what she said the other day. Kind…

The Queen on Middle Age
Many moons ago, the Queen made a premature appearance into the world. She colicked (it’s totally a word, the Queen just passed a law saying so) through infancy, bounced through toddlerhood, rebelled through the rest and it’s all still a bit of a blur. Until one day, she found herself smack dab in the middle…

Boredom Reigns in the Kingdom
The Queen loves summer. She looks forward to it, all year long. The thought of sunshine, warm breezes, flowers in full bloom…well, they are almost enough to get her through those long winter months that drag on forever in her Kingdom. The Queen has no tolerance for winter and if she could, she’d ban…
