Hi folks! I can’t believe it’s been so long since I’ve checked in but it’s been a very full month. I’m sure that any of you with small, living extensions of yourselves can certainly understand. It’s Back to School month and with that comes all kinds of responsibilities that were somehow pushed to the back […]
It’s the Love of His Life
Almost five short years ago, when Jack was a teeny tiny human (now he’s just a teeny human) he was gifted with a baby blanket. I wish I could say it came from a dear Great Grandmother, handcrafted from wool she had spun herself (do you even spin wool?) or maybe as a christening gift […]
A Watched Pot Never Boils…Especially When It’s EMPTY!
You know, I don’t ask for much. I’m a provider by nature and get a whole lot of satisfaction in taking care of my family. Like most wives and/or moms I try to keep good snackies on hand for the kids, clean underwear and socks in the hubbie’s dresser drawer and a good combo of […]
“Why not?”
Some people look into the face of my little man and ask, “How can you get mad at a face like that?’ My answer? “I’ll give you ten minutes with the kid and you will see for yourself.” Now, don’t get me wrong. My son Jack, in all of his 4 year-old glory is a […]
“A Cobbler’s Children Have No Shoes”
Ever heard that age old adage, “A cobbler’s children have no shoes”? I’m here to tell you that it is absolutely the truth. Okay, not literally the truth as myself and my children do, in fact, own plenty of shoes. Too many, actually. Myself, an embarassing amount, if I’m being truthful. Which is a habit […]
**Crickets**
Um, hello? Hello? Anyone in this blog? **Crickets** Whew doggie, has it been quite a long time since I have stepped foot into this beautiful blog o’ mine. If I didn’t know any better I would swear that I had been transported to some alternate universe where time slowed to a fraction of its original […]
It’s Been A Week.
Hey folks! It’s your happy housewife checking in here. Ha. I should probably clarify that to your “harried housewife” but that just leaves me with visions of a frizzy-haired woman with the back of her housecoat stuck up in her pantyhose and a Marlboro hanging haphazardly from her lipstick stained lips. Which is totally not […]
Back to “Work”
So I went on a little vacay, a brief hiatus from my daily obligations, if you will, and within 33 seconds of my arrival home I wasthrust back into the trenches as if I had never left. Ain’t that just a son-of-a-gun? My parents are Snow Bird wannabes and have been in Arizona for the […]
Justin Beiber…a lesson in love
The year was 1987 and the Summer weather was balmy. The sunny days were bright and my bangs were tall. “Tiger Beat” magazine and “Sweet Valley High” books littered my bedside table, adorned with half-used tubes of Bonne Belle lipgloss and Love’s Baby Soft perfume bottles. I was one Rave hairspray-using, blue eyeshadow-wearing, acid washed […]
It Has the Devil in It! ~ Weight Loss Woes
I have previously disclosed that I am attempting to become at “one” with the gym and get my fitness on while subsequently attempting to lose major poundage. The only real obstacle to reaching my goal (besides my self-diagnosed inability to burn calories) is my frustrating bout of plantar fasciitis in my left foot rendering me […]
