I’m a mommy on a mission. While Husband and I are pretty good with leaving Thursdays as our date-in night (see The Sex Formula), we rarely go OUT for our date nights. I’d like to think that this happens once a month, but the truth of the matter is it’s probably once a quarter (lame, [...]
I am the kind of person who is always looking to learn and do a good job at whatever I put my mind to. It doesn’t always work, road to hell, etc., etc. But if heaven is anything like the movie “Defending Your Life,” I want to know that if I died tomorrow I can [...]
I forgot to mention one of the coolest and funniest things that has happened to me lately. I’m now a monthly contributor at My Mommy Manual. I literally fell out of my chair when I got the invitation email and then had to stifle some serious laughter when Practical Mommy asked me to write about [...]
I always believe that it’s good to reinforce the positive because then you’ll get more of it. Likewise (and you probably know someone like this), if you’re mopey all the time, most likely things are happening in your life for you have reason to mope. Sometimes I think we just have to make a conscious [...]
Yes, this is a frank post about sex. Married people sex. Which is DEFINITELY different than single people sex. So if you are my parents (Hi Mom & Dad!) or you don’t want to know me THAT WELL then please stop reading. Husband, if you happen to choose to read this blog post, I wouldn’t [...]
My husband is like Archie Bunker sometimes. He’s often a curmudgeon, grumpy old man and he’s not even 40 yet (NOT that 40 is old! Please don’t get me wrong.). Sometimes I think we’re polar opposites; he’s not big on socializing, he’s fiscally conservative and he holds his peace until he really has something to [...]
I don’t know if I’ve adequately explained thus far how much I love movies and books. They are completely my escape. I also love how both fuel my imagination. I’m canceling my Netflix account because essentially I get what I want from our local library. It’s free to rent movies (and music! I’m stocking up [...]
Oh no. Not you? Who’d it be? Certainly not me!
Yes, it’s true. I’ve become THAT woman. You know the one. The woman you talk about with your closest girlfriend (who I call my “sistafriends”), where you can throw around the dirt and it’s safe – the conversation doesn’t leave the kitchen counter (or wine bar). [...]
Sorry I’ve been a way for a few weeks. Bad behavior, I know, for someone who a) has a burning desire to write because it helps me sort my shit out (and believe me there’s a lot to sort out!) and b) someone starting a blog. My sincere apologies. There’s been a number of things [...]
