This holiday week, I’m sharing a couple of my favorite posts from the past year. On Friday, I shared a fun one about when I met my match in a cute deathly raccoon, and today I’m hanging out with a favorite pair of boots–that defined my marital relationship a bit and reminded me of why I think […]
Let’s Talk about the Raccoon
This holiday week, I’m going to share a couple of my favorite posts from the past year. When looking over what I’d published, I found a lot of sentiments about letting go and embracing where you’re at in this life, the continued presence of missing my mother, shout-outs to my perpetually growing obsession with reading, and one tribute to […]
One Holy Night Long Ago…
“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”, Isaiah 9:6, NIV “But the angel said to them, ‘Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will […]
The Best of Christmas
Not sure about you, but by the time I roll into December 22, I more resemble a puddle of exhausted holiday effort versus a cheery blinking bulb of Christmas energy. Give me a cookie to frost and I may just stab a lone M&M in the middle and call it a day. Icing is so overrated anyway. That’s […]
The Need for Delightful
****This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Sara Lee® to help promote their new 45 Calories and Delightful bread.**** I’ve told this story in bits and pieces before, but it’s an important one, so bear with me. About two and a half years ago, my mother died. My dear grandma had just […]
Once Upon a Craft
This is one of my favorite Christmas stories of all time, first published here two years ago. We’re now all a bit older, but I continue to have active fantasies of the shirts I noted at the end of the post. Godspeed with the Christmas crafts, my friends… *********************************************************** Gosh, yes…I actually tried to craft […]
The Christmas Win
My daughter had a banner week last week. Upon smelling the rank fishy odor at the grocery store and pondering the stinky source, she pointed at a innocent nearby middle-age woman and loudly concluded “EW! IT’S HER BUTT”. Super. A kind friend gifted her an Elsa doll for Christmas. She opened it and squeed, “Yay! Now I can […]
Send That Dry Winter Skin Packing
Anyone ever heard of keratosis pilaris? My mother hadn’t, and she spend the whole of her life trying to treat the bumpy rough skin (a condition that can be easily mistaken with early signs of acne, another frustrating yet relatively harmless skin alternation. Clearawayacne knows all about the topic, and has been trying to help everyone have […]
Jammy-ing It Up with Joe Boxer
While our children usually look adorable come bedtime, my husband and I don’t have the best track record for acing out pajama wear. So when Joe Boxer pajamas from Kmart asked if I would to check out their line of jammies for my whole family, it was very exciting times around here! My husband fails miserably at pajamas–he sleeps in his […]
MyCharge Cheer!
Dude, the holidays have become an all-hands-on-deck situation around here. It’s a wondrous array of wrapping paper, obsessive checking of Amazon lightening deals, and piles of burnt cookies shouting-out my stunning domesticity. Fabulous. In all this holiday merriment, teensy things tend to rile Mommy. Read: she goes bat-crap crazy. Over the weekend, I misplaced my scissors and began […]
