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 [...]
I’m randomness personified these days
I came across this lovely blog through twitter and then found this hilarious blog. It was at The Un Mom blog that I found she had created a ~perfect for me~ Random Tuesday Thoughts meme. Why is this perfect for me? Because I can’t seem to pull together whole cohesive posts with full sentences about [...]
So busy I do not know whether I am coming or going
Yeah, hi! So I don’t know about you but I’ve been so swamped that I seriously don’t know which way is up. It seems like every single blessed day is jam packed with so much activity. And the last couple weeks were the worse, worst, worstest? Between getting ready to go to Las Vegas, coming [...]
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.

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 [...]
