I'm standing over the sink in my too tiny kitchen drinking out of the 1 teaspoon sized measuring spoon that is still attached to its nesting mates when Mike walks in. He looks at me and stifles a giggle then looks at the counter. He's just cleaned the kitchen so part of me is aware … Continue reading um I do…
I can’t fight this feeling…
I bet you thought I was going to make you watch a video of that REO Speedwagon song... you know the one. You've likely got it stuck in your head just from reading the title of this post... I know I do. But I think just suggesting it is probably enough cruelty for one post … Continue reading I can’t fight this feeling…
a boo boost…
I've been promising K for weeks that we would pull out the costume bins. Yes, we have several large bins of costumes wigs and accessories... doesn't everyone? I was looking forward to it in an odd sort of way. Kind of like you look forward to going to the dentist not because you enjoy the … Continue reading a boo boost…
things you don’t need to know (that I’m going tell you anyway)
I just finished singing a power ballad about my iced tea and soy sausage. Yes... I eat soy sausage. No I'm not leaving bacon or pork sausage behind, I just happen to like this particular brand of soy sausage too. The tea I was singing about (and to) is almost gone. I need to buy … Continue reading things you don’t need to know (that I’m going tell you anyway)
gearing up… (or I’m doing NaNoWriMo again, don’t tell my husband)
In 19 days it will be November. To most of you November may seem to be a pretty innocuous month. I mean really... it's November. The biggest most stressful thing about November for most of the USA is... Thanksgiving (the Canadians had Thanksgiving yesterday). The kids are settled into school. The winter holiday season is … Continue reading gearing up… (or I’m doing NaNoWriMo again, don’t tell my husband)
hey Lucy… I’m home
I'm home from camping. We had an awesome time. Much fun was had. But now I have a really bad cold... or something. I'm going to bed. <3
because I wear the pants in this family…
Last night after I was done slamming Mike's head into my big ol headboard I rolled over and went to sleep. I needed my rest so I could head out into the wild for some camping. In October. When it's cold. I'm manly like that. When I get back I'll probably drink a 6-pack and … Continue reading because I wear the pants in this family…
digging the hole…
I'm up to my neck here people. To. My. Neck. I'm getting all this stuff done that needs to get done plus reading books and staying relatively sane but I had this nagging feeling that I was forgetting something. Something little. Something big. I don't know something. It may be that I've been so caught … Continue reading digging the hole…
really helpful advice…
As I was standing in the bathroom flat ironing my hair (like I do) the loud punk music blaring in my ears was so rudely interrupted by the ringing of my iPhone... I answered it (mostly so that I could get the music back once I was done with the conversation) and it was none … Continue reading really helpful advice…
nothing from me…
I've got nothing to talk about right now that won't bore me to death or make me sound like a complete neurotic... which I guess would be fair. So instead I'm going to try a little bit of subterfuge and say "Hey look over there..." You like music don't you? Go check out the Duo … Continue reading nothing from me…
