At Home With the Mahoneys'

"Dad, there's a skunk out there somewhere."

A tiny voice sounded clear as a bell from a spot on the couch as the smallest Mahoney made his presence known.

"Not even a 'Hi Dad', huh? Missed ya, Mikey."

Bill Mahoney had just worked what equated to forty-eight hours to one case. Essentially tailing a woman on a workman's comp case all over Tallahassee. Given his background you'd think he was used to it, but no, that dizzy bitch had a lead foot and his borrowed Ford Tempo had trouble keeping up with her. 'Mary's not going to be too pleased with the dent you put in the driver's side fender.'

The voice in his head that sounded suspiciously like his late father-in-law chuckled from the depths of his mind. Inwardly groaning as he leaned over the couch to hug Michael, the seven-year-old that had been all but glued to watching Swamp Thug.

”Where's your mother?"

"Out in the garage doin' the laundry. I think she's upset 'cause Wendy went to Kyle house and told her she hated her."

Wendy was their sixteen-year-old eldest child, who was proving to have both of her parent's wild spirit in her. He had gotten the phone call filling him in from Mary earlier that afternoon after he'd stopped to get gas and something to eat. To say that his wife had come undone like he'd ever seen was an understatement.

"Mikey...how long has your mother been in the garage?"

"She made me dinner and then said I could watch TV."

A shrug along with that answer was all Bill needed to find himself pulled into the garage to find his wife surrounded by a cloud of thick, heavy smoke and heaps of neatly folded laundry. It was almost surreal to see his wife smoking, let alone doing it around perfectly folded color coordinated clothes organized by family member. There was a familiar knock at the front door, alerting him of his mother-in-law's incoming to pick up Michael for a Nana and Mikey night. It was a call he'd made to Minnie on the way back before he'd pulled onto Snapper Trail, just passing Minnie's place on Copperline.

He pushed the garage door open and shut it firmly behind him. A stop at the state store had left him empty-handed, but one stop to a friend on the dirt road, and he'd acquired some of Florida's finest home brew shine his Yankee blood had ever had. He had a feeling that his lady love was going to need a drink or two tonight.

"Are we smokin' hers or yours, babe?"

Her bun had seemed to slump a little as her eyes welled with tears again.

"M-Mine."

Bill had never seen such a sad sight as the one in front of him. Mary was usually sunshine and rainbows and giddily goofy. This one was smoking to numb the pain. Large blue-green eyes and slightly humidity curled red locks thrown into a hair clip to keep her neck cool. She was holding out her normal symbol of peace, almost as a beggar would hold its cup out in a night market. For a split second, he was taken right back where he'd left his nightmares. He hadn't realized he'd snagged the joint until he'd taken a hit.

"Our daughter hates me."

That was all it took for Mary's wall to break down.

"All I ever did was love her with my entire heart...and she hates me. I told her I didn't like how that Benson boy treats her. I know who he runs with and I know his parents. That boy would not be missed if something were to happen to him."

A chill went up Bill's spine despite the sheen of sweat that covered his face. Mary was a native to the area and raised by a fierce spirited woman, to add to the fact that Mary had damn good aim made her a triple threat.

"She didn't mean it, hun. Girls and their mothers fight all the time."

"I never packed up my dresser just because I was mad at my mama."

Sailor Beware

With a blend of humor, romance, and physical comedy, "Sailor Beware" weaves a delightful narrative filled with lighthearted moments and unexpected twists.

I have not reached one of my favorite Dean Martin/Jerry Lewis films, though not my all-time favorite of their collection. Their second military film, the 1952 Hal Walker directed “Sailor Beware” is a movie black and white musical comedy, I’ve watched many times over, usually when I’m feeling down, though it has been a while. This film is adapted from a 1933 play written by Kenyon Nicholson and…

A Pioneering Nurse - Mary Eliza Mahoney

Mary Eliza Mahoney was a pioneering nurse and the first African American woman to earn a nursing license in the United States. Born on May 7, 1845, in Dorchester, Massachusetts, Mahoney broke through racial and gender barriers to become a trailblazer in the nursing profession.

Mahoney grew up in a time when nursing was considered a low-status profession, and women of color were largely excluded from formal education. In 1879, she graduated from the New England Hospital for Women and Children Training School for Nurses, becoming the first African American woman to earn a nursing license.

In 1908, the National Association of Colored Graduate Nurses (NACGN) was founded to support and advocate for black nurses across the country.
