So perhaps I’m a season too early, but I love, love the movie Elf. It’s ridiculous. It’s funny. It’s ridiculously funny. The most laughable parts are in the beginning, which works out well, since apparently my capacity to stay awake for longer than 20 minutes into any movie was expelled from my body simultaneous to the birth […]
Preschool Tears
The tears are coming, oh, the tears are coming…And not from my 3 yr. old son, but from Mommy. Source: Microsoft Office ClipArtIs it just me, or do those doors look totally manacing?? And the thing is, I swore up and down that I would never be the kind of mom who was bawling when […]
A Mom, A Cart, A Mission
It happened. Really, it did. I found myself in a grocery store without my children. I know, I’ll wait while you recover from the shock…okay now? In truth, I was a scary, scary force to behold. The speed with which I can whip out errands sans the little ones is awe-inspiring. Years of babies screaming in […]

Early Holiday Bargain Shopping: A Monday Review
Labor Day. Ahh…a break from our jobs and work. A chance to cook-out, hang out with family and friends. A final, sweet goodbye to Summer and a welcoming in of Fall. It’s a great day; I love the potential to just relax a little (though you know it doesn’t always happen when you’re running after […]
Slayed by the Holidays
Wednesday would have been my mother’s 63rd birthday, but it wasn’t. It wasn’t because today, September 2, is actually the 6 month anniversary of her death. How are we doing since she died? Okay. Truly, overall, okay. Things like this never feel good, and they’re not supposed to. But we are working at piecing things […]
Life’s a Beach Walk
My sister recently phoned me from her recent beach vacation. She declared that she and her husband had decided to “just pass on the whole kid thing”. Poor girl, she was speaking in hushed tones and sounded slightly traumatized. As it turns out, earlier that afternoon, they had witnessed a family with young kids try […]
Guest Posting at Stroller Parking Only
I love reading Laura’s posts over at her blog, Stroller Parking Only. As a mom of an almost-one year old, she’s funny, she’s real and is so good at making you feel more connected in this bizarre world of parenting. I was thrilled with the chance to guest post for her! I’ll let you go […]
Happy Birthday to Me
This is the card I am sending myself this year: Source This is a good thing. Trust me.
Photo-Canvas.Com: The Monday Review
My inbox is always filled with offers and deals for photo canvases, and while I love, love pictures and think the canvases seem so cool, I have held out. It truly isn’t the cost–somehow, much to the chagrin of my husband, my brain and budget manage to conform themselves around whatever my photo “needs” currently […]
