Uggghhh. I’m sick. Not the kind of sick where I want to snuggle into my bedcovers and watch soap operas or evenreruns of “The Nanny” or “Little House on the Prairie”. The kind of sick where I want to snuggle into my bedcovers and sleep until it’s 2012. Are you hearing me? No reruns? Not […]
Alright…so this is why I do it.
In case you’ve been following my blog you’ve probably heard me whine a little (okay, a whole lot) about my unpaid stay-at-home mom job. To quickly recap: I love my kids and feel grateful that I get to be home with them…but I sometimes question whether I had a lapse in sanity when I made […]
Little Beauty Queens
I believe I have confessed to an unnatural obsession with reality shows. And, still, I am not proud. I know that there are so many other more enlightening things I could expose my psyche to. Like reading a dictionary, for instance. Or, studying Birkram yoga. But, I just can’t help myself. And lately? Well, it’s […]
Household Tip of the Week – Mr. Clean’s Magic Eraser Mop
If you’ve never used a Magic Eraser than you are surely missing out. These little babies are truly magical. With a little water activation on the end of an unassuming little white sponge they become the housekeeper you’ve always wished for but never wanted to feel inferior to. They work on everything. They clean up […]
Thank God for Fridays…
I’ve previously divulged that I am of the “non-employed” variety. And to my friends with jobs it always sounds so funny when I say, “God I’mready forthe weekend!” I usually get a snicker/sneer and they’re all, “Um, isn’t every day a weekend for you?” as they roll their eyes. Ha ha ha. Well…quite frankly…hell no. […]
It’s a NEW Soccer Season People!
Alittle while back I posted (in shame) about Avery’s last soccer season. You can see that here. To recap quickly: her shoes were too small and it all ended horribly. So when Avery told us that she wanted to play soccer this fall season, needless to say, we were very apprehensive. We weighed the pros […]
Kentucky Butter Cake Recipe
Say, what?!? A cake…that’s actually named after butter? Sign me up, please! Y’all, (trying to get my inner-Kentucky to come out) this cake is to die for. I’ve made it twice and both times managed to almost consume the entire thing on my own. And, as if the Devil himself sanctioned this delectable bit of […]
My Brand New Baby – Samsung Netbook NC10
Whew, doggie! I am sitting here typing on the one and only brand new electronic gadget I’ve ever owned. Seriously. With the exception of a Sony discman I bought in 1993 (which, by the way, had a very bad habit of skipping at the best part of all my favorite songs), an iPod Nano (which […]
In Memory – September 11, 2001
They say that every generation has an “event.” An event of such magnitude that most people will remember where they were when that event occurred, remember trying to process the impact of what had happened, and remember an overwhelming sense of dread at realizing the world as they knew it had just changed. I surelyremember […]
Having Multiples…I can barely manage my two!
I have to admit something. I have a sort of addiction that I’m really not proud of. In fact, I have tried to conquer it but I keep getting dragged back down into the depths of hell…otherwise known as reality television. More specifically, any show that has to do with raising families, be it families […]
