In need of a laundry fairy? Yeah, me too!

I wish I could say, “Oh, HELLLL NO they diiin’t” But to be honest, this right here is pretty much how it is in my house. I’ll admit it is really funny, though. And probably how it is in every household in the world. OK, I’m sure it’s not that way in EVERY household in [...]

Why is this perfect for me? Because I can’t seem to pull together whole cohesive posts with full sentences about [...]

Homework and the restless, whining, avoidance child

This is one of those, ‘I’m SO not prepared for this’ posts. I just want to bang my head on the table in frustration. She refuses to listen to my suggestions, argues with me about what the teacher wants, and just generally whines about the HORRIBLENESS of homework.  Plus, she’s whining about being tired (avoidance).  [...]

Chicago Moms Blog: Stop Hoochifying our Girls!

Can I get a AMEN?!  I’ve had to deal with this ridiculousness almost on a daily basis. Having two young impressionable girl children. They hound me constantly with requests for this “toy” or that “toy” that they’ve seen on a T.V. commercial. And before you get on my case about not letting them watch television, [...]

Crazy search

I was looking at my blog stats / search terms & noticed something a bit odd.  A search that was typed in by someone, some “interesting” person, that brought them to my blog.   It was: mom makes me wear her panties.  REALLY??  Uhh, yuck.  I’m quite sorry to hear that.  But what I want to know, what has [...]
