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 […]
The Butt Through the Window: a Pre-Valentine Apologetic Love Letter to Wells Fargo
No, the butt of interest is not either of my children’s, but mine. Here’s the thing: at some point post-conception, it no longer became a bizarre thing for the bank teller to look out the window at the drive-through and be greeted not with an image of my sweet smiling face, but rather of my […]
Why did I not think of that?!
So we’ve all done it–kicked ourselves when we hear about some new invention that is going to make someone millions of dollars that we so easily could have thought of if we’d just spent a little time and creativity. My latest horror is related to the children’s music industry. Why was I not the one […]
“Mommy Got Boobs On”
My two year old son just pointed at my chest and told me this. Good to know. I’m not sure exactly what makes today any different than any other day, but in case you were wondering, this Mom of the Year has definitely got her boobs on today.
I May Have Peed Myself Just a Little…
Behold: My Future (at least it comes in the flattering “soft peach” shade, tight?) This is possibly related to unsavory post-pregnancy “issues” that those of you who have birthed a being will understand. Also possible: rocking a nasty cold, I coughed really, really hard. Still possible: I had postponed a breakaway to the bathroom […]
