Some things happen and I look back and wish I could get those hours back and have a redo. I know it’s not worth it to look back, since that just wastes more time, but remembering can also prevent me from making the same mistakes twice. Examples? Watching “Old School”, or any Will Ferrell movie, […]
The Wisdom of Grandparents, and Spicy Chicken Soup
You know those moments where you look at your grandparents and you are really, truly, amazed by their wisdom, life experience, positive outlook on life, and are just pretty darn proud of being the offspring of a couple of pretty good eggs? Well, I love my grandparents, and have this feeling a lot. But never […]
When moms shop for bathing suits
I went bathing suit shopping last week. I took my kids. And, I actually bought a bathing suit. Yes, I would like a medal, thank you for asking. As a matter of fact, I have even compiled a list of pros and cons to help you decide if you are considering taking your kids along […]
What I’ve Learned
You know those mornings? You know, those mornings, when you’re up at 5am writing a blog post, when you’d really rather be curled in your deliciously warm and cozy bed, but someone *ahem* is making that quite impossible? It’s true. My adorable and sweet little baby girl, has decided that 5 am is now an […]
An Eye Brow Affair
You know those times when you’re in an impossible situation, but you can’t, in good conscience and good manners, do what you would like to do, which is make a head-first dive-and-roll jump for the nearest exit? I had one of those moments the other day. Many years ago, a girlfriend of mine introduced me […]
Oh, Pinterest.
Bloggoooooons! I have missed you. I don’t know how people do this blogging thing all on their lonesome, holding sole responsibility for living an interesting life, cooking and baking interesting things, and also posting about their shenanigans! I’m so thankful to be doing this with Chelsea so I can disappear for a week and you […]
Questionable Marketing
You know how Superstore has the “Deal of the Week”? That one thing that you never actually need, but hope the cashier forgets to mention it so you get it for free? Packs of 800 toothpicks, cinnamon scented body wash, underarm incense sticks, whatever the case may be. Well, it turns out Staples has jumped […]
Sport skills are life skills
I’m no athlete, and have very little semblance of coordination or team camaraderie. My husband showed me these commercials since they made him think of me…should I be offended? :) [youtube id=”bARkhWUF8MI” width=”620″ height=”360″] [youtube id=”8huLjOxp8SY” width=”620″ height=”360″] [youtube id=”3glvheORpQo” width=”620″ height=”360″]
I Spied Her, or Me Versus Wild.
The other day I reached a new level of low. I was on my way to take a shower before heading out for the day, when I opened the shower door to discover a gigantic spider in the bottom of it. The kind of spider that would have to be divided into pieces in order […]
Freaky Friday
Do you like to laugh? I do. Do you laugh at people when they are scared? Me too. Mainly because I am jumpier than a jack rabbit during hunting season, and the chance to laugh at anyone else’s terror makes me happy. If you do not find other people’s fear even vaguely amusing, then you […]
