Hello my friends! It is I, your resident “slacker” blogger. I’m not going to say that I can’t believe that it’s been almost a month since my last post. Because I can believe it. Every time I walk past my computer and say to myself, “Why are you not writing anymore?” and then continue to […]
Well, Hello there!
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 […]
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 […]
An Oldie but a Goodie…
I thought I might start reposting some of my earlier blog entries, from way back when my mom and sisters were literally the only ones reading them. The following post is particularly appropriate because over the last couple of weeks I have been tried, tested, used and abused in my temporary role as “head of […]
WHERE Have You BEEN???
I really wish I could say, “Well, dahlings, I’m so sorry I’ve been absent but I’ve just been on a FAB-ulous world tour and couldn’t spare the time to say hullo.” But, that would be lying. In fact, it would be more on par to say, “Well, dahlings, I’m so sorry I’ve been absent but […]
Please tell me you haven’t forgotten about me…
Okay. So, I’ve been a little missing-in-action lately. I have no real solid excuse other than the fact that I’ve had laundry up the wazoo, a voluntarily working-from-home husband who still refuses to occasionally drive his computer-savvy arse to the office thereby refusing to afford me fleeting moments of freedom from staring at the back […]
A Little Bit of Miscommunication
Happy Friday all! I fully recognize that it’s been what feels like ages since I’ve posted, but, believe it or not, things have been a tad bit harried around this house. We’ve had last-minute cardboard beauty parlors to build (thank you very much for the head’s up on that one, Avery), teacher’s gifts to purchase, […]
Conversations with Avery
I’ve recently determined that I owe a lotmore than a corrected crossbite and an empty pocketbook to my daughter’s orthodontist. I also owe him for a newly developingrelationship with my daughter, Avery. You see, if you happen to be one of the lucky few steeped in orthodontia (sarcasm fully intended) then you will understand that […]
An Alternate Universe?
Today has been a day for the books. Today has been the kind of day where I raise my face to the heavens and cry, “Why!?!?!?” Today has been the kind of day where I realize that the fact hair remains follicly attached to my head must bedue to divine intervention. Today has been the […]
