I miss hard words coming out of my mouth. Once upon a time before I was able to spout fairy tales of rainbows and princesses riding unicorns to their coronation as queen of utopia I was the kind of girl that could cuss a blue streak. I'd make a sailor blush, or a trucker, or … Continue reading missing you

the silly sitter chronicles
Last week I wrote about an incident with the sitter and the dishwasher that left my kitchen floor sparkly clean... well Violet Nuit sat with K for 10 hours yesterday and we came home to yet another installment of what has now been titled by K "The Silly Sitter Chronicles". 10 hours is a long … Continue reading the silly sitter chronicles
I suspect the end is near…
I picked K up early from school so she could get some rest and a nice lunch and snack before the impending ballet performance Friday night. Quiet time is key before a big ballet event. Not only is there the whole thing about getting on stage, but there's also makeup, hair product and a tutu. … Continue reading I suspect the end is near…
in the twilight zone
Something is just not right here folks. Something strange is afoot (and not just at the circle K). Mike is home from work for a few days since we have a foreign exchange Podcaster staying with us. We can't just keep him locked up in the house, we need to take him to see some … Continue reading in the twilight zone
when cats cry
Oh what to do, what to say? Yesterday I posted about all those drafts that were saved up in my wordpress... Posts I had barely written. Posts that were long and never concluded. Posts that had great meaning, but I just kind of had trouble letting go of them. The one that seemed most intriguing … Continue reading when cats cry
because maybe I’m getting a little stodgy
There are a few things to discuss today class. Key among them being that Easter was yesterday. What's that? How was my Easter? Very secular, thanks for asking. K woke us up bright & early at 6:30 in the morning wanted to see what the Easter Bunny had left for her. I, being a little … Continue reading because maybe I’m getting a little stodgy
bad with names
Every one has their flaws, I have many. One of them is that I'm bad with names. I can meet you 6 times and forget your name, and then the grace period where I should know your name has passed and I'm too shy to ask who you are... Also, I'm not always good at … Continue reading bad with names
someone’s fool
Maybe it's a complete lack of whimsy on my part, but I'm not a huge fan of April Fools day. At all. Having an entire day of the year where I can't rely on what anyone says to be true, false press releases, ridiculous jokes, people telling their family they're getting divorced when they're not, … Continue reading someone’s fool
stuck
One of the last things my dentist told me before I left today was "It's going to feel like you have food stuck between your teeth for a couple of weeks." All I could really think upon hearing that was that I had a good reason, a very good reason, for willingly having dental work … Continue reading stuck
best of both worlds
This week I get something magical and special. Two Fridays. For a stay at home mom I have an odd schedule. Monday - Thursday is your normal thing for me. I try to go to bed at a decent hour, I get up early, get my daughter ready for school and help my husband get … Continue reading best of both worlds
