Winter is coming! And even if you aren’t a Game of Thrones fan, this is still enough to make even the best of moms shudder with a sense of foreboding. Winter brings colds…and all the snotty fun that goes with them. The good news for you? Boogie Wipes is giving away a one year supply […]
Organize the Chaos Like a Mom of the Year
When I picture myself, I envision a wake of chaos flailing behind me as I stumble and fumble from one daily task to the next, usually a decent ten minutes late–for everything. You know how in Peanuts Pig-Pen was always followed by a cloud of dirt? That’s me. Except my cloud involves stupidly popped tires, lots of […]
Happy Mom of the Year Award to YOU!
Happy 4 year blogiversary to me! What the heck is a blogiversary, you ask? It’s the annual high-five acknowledging you dedicated another year of your life to the thriving world behind a computer screen, justified by a logic that no one but a fellow blogger can appreciate. And maybe my dog, who remains thrilled I spend so much time in […]
There’s a Handbook for That
One of the trickiest parts of motherhood for me has always been the persistent question pounding through my sleep-deprived brain, “Am I doing this right?” Sure, there are friends you can ask. If you’re lucky, really good friends who can help you tackle the tough, private stuff, but still, doubt can continue to thunder on… The truth is, […]
My Toilet Paper Crush
As a blogger, I often get requests to check out a product I’m not familiar with, but when Scott® Brand asked if I’d be interested in sharing news of their new Scott® 1100 rolls of toilet paper with you, I was all “I know that toilet paper!”. You see, there are a few things I feel firmly about on […]
The Book of Speculation: A Tide of a Tale
One of my favorite things about book clubs is being introduced to books I’d never pull off the shelf on my own. Through the recommendations and suggestions of others, I read books of all different genres. Shoving my once go-to bent towards soapy beach reads aside, I delight in unique finds that blow the doors on my literary scope wide […]
Don’t You Dare Turn the Station
We are at the height of 4 yr. old ridiculousness around these parts. Most of our days end in an unabashed show of dramatic tears–mother and daughter alike. As my husband walks through the door in the evenings, I shove her his way, shouting, “She’s yours!”, then flee to a more relaxing expenditure of time, such as folding laundry. […]
Making Up the Difference
Whoosh. Whoosh. Whoosh. What’s that? Oh, just the white flag of surrender I’m waving to September. It won. True story: my only (very minimal) hope of effectively functioning is with a schedule. Roll in a late preschool start, a bevvy of holidays switching up school schedules and the multi-leveled beast of Back to School adjustment, […]
How to Make Your Spouse Do Ridiculous Things For You in Three Easy Steps
Here’s the situation: I have a plant. Specifically, an overgrown snake plant. It’s the most hideous plant of all time. I blame my best friend. She gave it to me on the day of our high school graduation. I’m not sure why she hates me. No, really, in her defense, at the time it was a cute […]

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and soon we will be in the midst of pink ribbons everywhere. The international health campaign increases awareness of the disease and raises funds for research into its cause, prevention, diagnosis, treatment and cure.
