The stuff of Mommy’s fantasies… 1. The resulting laundry-lode would make the piles of bibs and burp cloths from the newborn days look paltry. 2. I would spend significant time fantasizing about having all the carpets in my house replaced vs. trying to actually clean them. 3. I would be so driven to desperation trying […]
Guest Blogger: Shara from Wife to Mom
Shara was so kind as to feature me on her blog, Wife to Mom last week and now I am so lucky that she is posting for me this week! Read on, my friends, because I seriously snorted out loud while reading this. She is hysterical and so spot on 🙂 Shara rocks it out […]
Chuck E. Cheese: The Monday Review
My son is almost 3 and we have been to Chuck E. Cheese 3 times now. The first time, we were drawn there by a party and I was filled with a sense of dread prior to our visit. Surely, this would be a disaster, and my 15 mo. old would have no idea what […]
The To-Do List
Am I the only one who has about 16 different to-do lists going at any given time? One is for the day, one for the week, one for the in-my-dreams-when-I-have-that-magical-free-time, etc. My planner is easily my most treasured possession. It has recently occurred to me that seriously, the only way I can actually tackle the […]
13.1
I was driving behind a minivan the other day that was rockin’ a 13.1 bumper sticker. I was suddenly overcome with awe–and desire to someday be that cool to have earned such a number. The sad thing is that I hate to run. This will not change and no half-marathon is foreseeable in my future. […]

Book Club
No secret: I love my books–and my book clubs. Since I’m boring and have basically no other hobbies whatsoever, I’m lame enough to be part of several book clubs. But I love them. Don’t be fooled. On a good night, total discussion of book amounts to about 10 scattered seconds with everyone shouting in different […]
Cleaning
I hate cleaning. Loathe it. Will put it off for forever. I could do laundry or wash dishes until I am blue in the face, but cleaning…not so much. A couple days ago though, I decided to embrace my inner Mom of the Year and go for it. It went well. My son started rolling […]
Guest-posting on Wife to Mom

Her blog is chock-full of great stuff ranging from DIY to parenting to recipes to working from home (she is a professional blog designer with her own design studio, www.SimplyCreativ.com). Her tagline is “Life as it happens” which is a […]
What to Expect While You Are Expecting: The Monday Review
Who has not heard of this franchise? Okay, my father claimed he hadn’t, but I told him this was impossible as it has been out for decades. Heidi Murkoff first rolled out the book What to Expect While you are Expecting in 1984. Since then, there have been multiple editions and the follow-up books What […]
