…that my man has no problem sleeping in a very girlie bed.
…that my kids are the ones who pointed it out.
…that eventually my girls will just go to bed when I tell them to. Not three callbacks later and two visits down the stairs.
…that I am ready for the kids to be out of school [...]

Last week was a transitioning week of sorts. But we all fell into step pretty easily.
Last week, I drove J up north to spend time with his mom and start the official move out of his apartment. He came home with a list of yard sale items, including massive amounts of outdated computer and music [...]

I went to my lady doctor a few weeks ago for my six month follow up after being cleared from a few years of pretty bad abnormal tests.
Last summer, I had gone in to meet with the surgeon because we were at that point and he got “down there” and took a look and said, [...]

It’s a continuous struggle in our house.
“Did you wash your hands?” after we get home from school, before we eat a snack.
“Did you wash your hands?” after going to the bathroom.
I’ve been slightly and silently joyous over the fact that Red’s second grade teacher informed them of Swine Flu, and even though it hasn’t come [...]

OH SHIT WHAT HAVE I GOTTEN MYSELF INTO?!?!?!?
Just kidding.
I am so so so ecstatic, I don’t even know what or how to write right now.
In an email to a friend yesterday, I said, “It’s like he was just here, although then I remember the length of time he was away and how hard it was, [...]

Last night was my last night without you.
In a little while you’ll be home.
I’ve cut my hair.
I painted my nails.
Waxed.
Shampoo’d the rugs.
I bought you a new toothbrush because sometimes, when you were away, I would space out and use yours. You need to start out here with a new toothbrush.
I’ve cleaned the bathroom.
I made a [...]

I was driving to the post office and bank one day, running errands and found myself pouring M&Ms into my mouth from a 21 oz bag. It’s not that I overeat, but I find sustinance in M&Ms for breakfast some days. Sometimes it is just a pot of coffee. Sometimes yogurt and fruit. Eating chocolate [...]

Back in the day when our id’s were checked less thoroughly and Costco and BJ’s (I can’t say that without laughing) weren’t yet mainstream in our city, there was Fedco. My grandpa was somehow a member, I think because of his business, and he would let my mom borrow his membership card (remember, his picture [...]

On Mama’s Day, I woke up at 6am and gathered my clothes and started to sneak out my bedroom door. You see, I’ve been training the girls to not leave their room until the first number on the clock read “7″.
So, it being 6, I figured I could get a shower, have some coffee, and [...]

Am I the only person on this earth who manages to always buy a cleaning product where the spray part has gone defunct?
Am I doing something wrong?
My girls had play dates today, meaning, each of them had a friend come over after school. I am ashamed to say that due to our schedules and need [...]
