The Aftermath

 
 
Halloween is over for another year and I am sitting in the kitchen looking at a counter full of candy wondering how much I can eat before my kids notice.  My two-year old keeps walking by looking up at me saying “Trick-or-Treat?” and holding out his already chocolate stained hand.  The kids had a fantastic [...]

NFL Eyes… Postponed

Hey guys.  I went through the entire day today without even thinking about doing an NFL Eyes post.  It could have something to do with my trip to the grocery store yesterday.  I was wearing my fake croc shoes in the rain.  This is stupid for two reasons:  1) The shoes have little holes all [...]

Your parents were right

If you’ve read my blog at all, you know by now that I’m a mother.  As a mother it’s my responsibility to say “no” to everything that might be even remotely fun for my kids to do.  No running with scissors, no playing tag in the street, no dancing in the middle of a WalMart [...]

Letter to Santa

My daughter wrote her letter to Santa today.  I thought I’d share it with you.  I typed verbatim what she said… although you can’t see the facial expressions that make it particularly cute, it’s still pretty adorable.

Dear Santa,
I would like a motorcycle that isn’t too fast that I won’t trip off and it is [...]

Let’s talk about pregnancy

First of all, for my friends and family that read my blog… I am not pregnant again.  Let me repeat, I am NOT pregnant again!  Now, that doesn’t mean I haven’t checked… in fact, I’ve been checking a lot lately.
I have no reason to suspect that I am pregnant.  No symptoms, no “forgetful moments”.  Nothing.  [...]

The mind of a child

Tonight at dinner, my darling daughter made me smile and laugh when she turned to me in all seriousness and asked
“Does God like chicken?”

The first thing that popped into my head was “well… He must, because it seems like there’s an aweful lot of stuff out there that tastes like chicken!”

Why I hate Call of Duty: World at War

If you move in video game circles (or love someone who does) chances are you have heard of the Call of Duty games.  My husband is a HUGE fan and the release of the newest installment was driving him mad with anticipation.  He had pre-ordered the game and just happened to have to work when [...]

Are you freakin’ KIDDING ME???

Ooooooh…. I am so upset right now.  No, it’s not politics that has my blood boiling.  It’s not religion, it’s not economics.  No- it is a much bigger problem.  I am starting to go grey!  I found a handful of silvers scattered throughout my dark mane tonight, and, well… POOP!  This totally stinks.  Now, I [...]

I’m living with a celebrity

My house has become a haven for a celebrity.  At least, he’s convinced he’s a celebrity…
He’s as demanding as they come, and has been known to throw food if it’s not made to his taste.  He’s bossy and requires constant attention.  He’s not above screaming his demands from across the room and he treats everyone [...]
