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 […]
Phew…it ain’t been no picnic!
Jeremy’s new job has required some big changes in our family dynamic. His out-of-town training schedule has turned me into, for lack of a better term, a single parent. And I’ve got to admit, I’m not really loving it. Now, I am fully aware that my plight pales in comparison to that of a full-time […]
Down the drain
So there I was, driving myself to Safeway in my little, fuel-efficient Honda Accord, mentally running my grocery list through my distracted mind. (Let me take this moment to say Oh My God! at how expensive gas is right now. My Ford Expedition has been parked and dejected now for a good month and has […]
Happy Friday!
Here’s to a fantastic weekend! The week has flown by and I am oh-so-ready for a couple of days of debauchery and indulgence. In my house, however, that roughly translates to “sleeping in while Jeremy gets Jack his oatmeal and milk and Avery her Peanut Butter Crunch and water with ice in it.” I know, […]
Ch-Ch-Changes
Confession time: I’m not that great with change. Sure, the concept of change is exciting and refreshing. I get easily bored and love the idea of a big old switcheroo in life’s happenings. In theory. Did you catch that? I n T h e o r y. Which means, in Mindy-speak, I like the idea […]
