NOT the harmonious exercise seen in my home I told my friend T I had started to exercise. She was enthused and asked which gym I had decided to go with. I said, “the one in my living room.” Yes, no sweet exercise machines or private trainers or childcare, but it’s free and it’s convenient. […]
Missing Gilmore Girls
I will never understand this. I will forever mourn the loss of Gilmore Girls until the day I die. When the CW decided in 2007 not to renew THE BEST SHOW OF ALL TIME, my heart started bleeding and has not stopped. Sound overly dramatic? It is not. If anything, I am being understated when […]
Skin Care
I have officially reached that right of passage that many not-so-young-approaching-middle-age (ack!!) women hit when they realize, “Oh crap, I’ve got skin!” And, like, maybe I should do something about it? Not ever plagued by acne or pimples (but many, many other body deficiences, I assure you), my skin care routine up to this point […]
HotCold!
We definitely have communication difficulties in this house. On average, I would say I understand approximately 15% of what my son says. A lot of “mumblemumblemumble mumble Chicken and Fries.” (Somehow no matter how vague my son’s speech is, his request for “chicken and fries” at the end of every sentence is astoundingly clear…) If […]
Pass the Knitting Needles
Okay, we’ve got a problem. I read Friday Night Knitting Club by Kate Jacobs and now, naturally, I want to become a knitter. The problem is that I have no idea how nor time to pursue this venture. But…I really want to do this. So I envision a lot of wasted hours online struggling to […]
Reason to Have a Girl?
Pretty sure this qualifies… 🙂
Sick Days…
…don’t exist in the life of a SAHM, plain and simple. I was seriously ticked when my husband came home and announced that his company was now giving them 3 sick days per calendar year. Retraction: I was jealous! Here is the thing: as soon as you decide it’s a good idea to push a […]
Pinterest Interest
I have managed to hold out on facebook, but have now somehow landed on pinterest.com and am, basically, obsessed. It’s so fun! It’s so organized! It’s like a shiny new toy for SAHMs with no purpose in life! I get to create boards (categories) and put pins (pictures of things I like found online) in […]
“My Heart Breaks for You”
One night recently, as we were drifting off into dreamland, my husband grasped my hand and said, “My heart breaks for you.” If you know my husband, you know that he is far from cliche and far from saying anything lightly. So given all that is going on with my family right now, this was […]
He Who Screams the Loudest…
…wins. Sad, but true. Examples: dog barking psychotically at whomever graces our threshold–I must immediately tend to his pacification or risk upsetting the entire household (the importance of this during naptime cannot be underscored enough!); my son begging repeatedly for a juice refill results in his wish granted b/c my tolerance for gratiating noise is […]
