Hello. My name is Mindy. <hi, Mindy> And I am a beauty-a-holic. There is something so fulfilling about a bright pop of pink lipstick, a gentle sweep of shimmering bronze on your cheek, a fabulous smokey eye. I derive a great amount of pleasure from beauty products and am highly unapologetic about it. Sort of. […]
Freezing my Petals Off!
I remember growing up as a teeny little Mindy looking soforward to winter.Our cozy home hada lovely wood-burning stove, plenty of hot chocolate and layers of snow clothes stacked up and ready for layering. Fast forward a couple of decades? Our heat pump dries out my hair, hot chocolate has too many calories and layers […]
No More Monsters Under the Bed!
My son is a genius. Not in the “well isn’t he special” kind of way. More in the “I hope he uses his powers for good” kind of way. I envision that he spends his entire day calculating, devising, researching, observing and executing. I present you with Exhibit “A”. The Monster Trap. This particular model […]
Hey Lady! Where’d you go?
You know, when I started this blog forty-hundred years ago I recognized immediately how much I love writing. The subsequent pouring out of blog posts was definitely proof of that. You couldn’t stop me. I was a writing machine. Ideas poured from my soul like lemonade from a pitcher on a sultry summer day. (See? […]
Let the Soccer Begin!
Picture it: Numerous sets of banged up knees running chaotically through a field of grass, the object of their one-track minded goal bouncing back and forth from ankle to ankle. The buzz of excitement over any potential contact with said object is palpable to those watching this familiar dance. And then picture this: On the […]
A perfect weekend…
We got home yesterday from a perfect camping trip with my book club. I’ve mentioned this special group of ladies before. You can read up on how we manage to take the “book” out of book club here. For a quick recap for the non-informed (in which case, how dare you not be informed about […]
Monday, Monday…
Is it Monday already? I have never understood that question. In my whole history of histories I have never NOT known it was Monday. For every second of the forty bazillion seconds in a weekend (totally officiall number by the way) I am aware as each passes by. I can feel the impending Monday morning […]
Hello friends! Can we send the kids back to school yet?
Hi there gang! So, it’s been approximately 72 years since my last post. Not much has changed. I’m still a stay-at-home mom. My kids are still lovely. My hubby is still all up in my biz and working from home. I still live in the suburbs. And I’m still just this side of looney bin-bound. […]
Happy Friday!!!
Phew! We made it everyone. The end of the week. And man did it feel like it would never get here. Isn’t that a strange phenomenon? There has always been and will always be the same amount of time between Monday and Friday each and every week. But, schedule a root canal/tetanus shot/gynecology visit for […]
The Outdoors…it ain’t my thang.
In honor of Spring and the gorgeous bounty of blossoms and foliage she affords us (or so I’m told) I thought I would address the ever-pressing thorn in my side, the hard truth I’ve come to realize and embrace. I hate the outdoors. I touched upon this subject here after experiencing a life-changing moment with […]
