Never in a thousand dreams, would I have imagined myself a political blogger.  I may occasionally dangle my participles and I don’t know what up is.  I’m literally the farthest thing from a political pundit, and I’m just as shocked as my 7th-grade English teacher, to whom I still owe a report on Greek mythology. I’m just a mom who wants to hear from someone who makes sense, who gets me. Until very recently, when “My Friends Think I’m The Only Liberal They Know.  Read more >

I can still see their black silhouettes—bats soared overhead against the dark of the night sky. The yard beyond was illuminated by a big farm light that buzzed on a pole, though it wasn’t much of a farm anymore.  Pieces had been sold off over the years to encroaching industry; plastics companies that left mounds and mounds of synthetic scraps of all shapes and colors.  Bits and pieces my brother and I would collect to play with as money or food or just to inspect and toss at the fence.  Read more >

I've struggled with April's NaBloPoMo Poetry topic of the month; as I've stated, an on-demand poet, I am not.  But the month is almost over, so here's one I wrote back in 1999 in honor of our little nephew who died just days before his fourth birthday.  For little Casey Edward Harrison, July 13, 1995 - July 11, 1999:Our little angel sleeps tonight;'Neath Heaven's gaze, his star shines bright.His mother's arms held him dear,His brother whispered in his ear,  Read more >

About Me: 

Kim has been a mom for 25 years. She's been a single mom, a working mom, a married mom, a step-mom, a mom to grown girls and now a stay at home mom to a delightful little boy who teaches her something every day. She's also a mom who struggled with six years of infertility and one loss before she finally managed to have that little boy.  She lives with her husband, son, dog and a gecko in San Diego, where they navigate life gluten free.  So today's meanderings could be about anything!
This blog transitioned in March of 2012 from Gluten-Free Gratefully to West Coast Posse.  She is also developing the website GlutenNaziMom.

About Me Tags: 

My website, West Coast Posse, is a fledgling power group for and about women living on the west coasts of either southern California or southwest lower Michigan.  The name for this site was inspired by this original blog post, and the thought process grew from this original blog post.  West Coast Posse hopes to become a model that spreads from west coast to west coast, to all parts in between and beyond to counteract the Mean Girl behavior that is so prevalent in popular media today.  Shows like The Real Housewives, Jersey Shore, and anything on MTV or VH1 are leading young girls and young women to behave in ways that grown up women in the real world don't, even though so much of what they see and therefore believe says otherwise.  West Coast Posse wants to set a positive example, and hopes others will start a Posse in their neighborhoods.
