WHAT HAPPENED?!? I saw the info-merical, blew it off as crazy, somehow scored an Eversave in the meantime and slunk (I wish!) my way into a pair. Now here I am, having stalked my way into owning 4 total pairs of As-Seen-on-TV pajama jeans for a mere $70. I feel like a college-age rock star […]
The Child-free Kid Birthday Party–and a Plea for an Amazing Charity
Sweet baby Lena with her Daddy after she was born Exactly 1 yr. ago my dear friend Rina found herself in Chester County Hospital delivering her precious baby girl at 28 weeks. After a few really scary and stressful months, sweet little Lena came home to live with her family and has largely been thriving […]
Not The Time, Honey
You all know what I’m talking about: you have something you DESPERATELY need to discuss with your spouse, but when you try to bring it up, you are welcomed with a big fat “Not The Time”. Which, honestly, is fantastic b/c of course, let’s just postpone the decision on whether or not your daughter’s […]
Spare Wine Corks
My dream…for the bar we don’t have. We’ve got them. Save them, religiously guard them, etc.–but for what?? Not yet sure, though I am envisioning some dramatic Martha Stewart-like project on the horizon. A lot of people have stashes of them in their home, but I’ve noticed that everyone is quick to defend how they […]
The First Vomit
Flashback 2 yrs. ago: My son had his first “real” vomit. We were spit-up champs for sure (seriously, positive we could have won a national title or something), but this was definitely different. At 8:30am, my husband had already left for work. Obviously, being a new-ish mom, I panicked, threw my 8 mo. old in […]
2012 London Summer Olympics
124 days until our beloved Games roll out…but who is counting? For someone who is hopelessly non-athletic, my obsession with the Olympics is fanatical and endless…Not sure exactly where/when it started, but I recall that one of the #1 things that attracted me to my husband 14+ yrs. ago was when I discovered he was […]
It would be so much easier to have kids…
…if you didn’t have kids. Please tell me I’m not the only one who has ever thought this. I shared this belief with my husband once, and he (of his scientifically logical ilk), was off-put by the illogic. Despite the apparent Catch 22 (if I didn’t have kids, I wouldn’t need to take care of […]
Etsy
Crap. I’ve got a new obsession. How did I even discover this one?? All I know is, somewhere between my Mom (who adored daffodils) dying and seeking thus-appropriate daffodil-themed jewelry to pang at my sister’s and my hearts, I am a full-fledged Etsy card-carrying member. At the side I have pictured a couple of the […]
Things That I Have Actually Said
It occurred to me recently that it may be not-normal to say things to my husband such as, “I understand that you are not maliciously trying to ruin my life with sippy cups, but…” This made me start thinking about bizarre things I say to the younger members of my family and thought another pop […]
New Furniture
I (Heart) my new chair…How did I ever become cool enough toown an “accent chair”?!Slightly taken with myself right now, sorry… My dog will never forgive us. He DESPISES change. Here is what happened: our elderly neighbors from our apartment complex of 7 years ago gave us their old recliner before they moved out. Who knows […]
