the calendar
I have to know, I really do. I need to ask and you have to tell me... Am I the only one putting stuff on my calendar for the summer? It started innocently enough. Marking the last day of school, noting the date of K's ballet performance. Writing in a conference... or two. Okay fine … Continue reading the calendar
the nightmare
As a girl I was plagued with bad dreams, so much so that at some point I stopped crying out in the night unless the visions were particularly stunning. There was one nightmare I had repeatedly and it was the one that came to mind whenever a bad dream was mentioned. I wrote about the … Continue reading the nightmare
tea time
When I was a kid I used to smoke tea. Yes, I know that's not what it's for, but none the less I did it. Cigarettes were expensive and hard to get, I was too lazy & scared to do drugs (yes you can be too lazy to do drugs, in my way of thinking … Continue reading tea time
because I am queen of this computer
I just made it through 100+ blog posts in my google reader. So some of them were pictures of cats and I didn't have to read more than a sentence... And who cares if I just deleted a few after glancing at them and realizing how long they were... So what if I only left … Continue reading because I am queen of this computer
why I hate you so much…

Before you go getting any ideas about my alarm clock wronging me in some way I should … Continue reading why I hate you so much…

Monday in the wee hours of the morning when the sun had not yet risen my friend did something magical. Amazing. Incredible. She gave birth to a baby girl. While I curled up in blissful slumber with my beautiful (feverish) child and darling husband she was just a couple of miles away laboring to bring … Continue reading while I slept
the sustainable lunch
Every morning I carefully pack lunch for K. I reach up to the top of the fridge and grab her adorable Hello Kitty pink canvas lunch box. I pull her sandwich and snack containers out of the dishwasher or the cupboard and I fill her adorably overpriced (though very durable) drink bottle with juice or … Continue reading the sustainable lunch
I’ll be sitting still for 45 minutes…
I've been running around like crazy lately trying to get stuff done. Stuff for her, for him, for them, for it... very little for me. All sorts of stuff really. Errands, tasks, printing, thinking, singing, dancing, losing my voice. Well that last one wasn't on the list of things to do, though it did happen. … Continue reading I’ll be sitting still for 45 minutes…
brake please, or stop you freaking idiot!!!!
Every school day we wake up early, get ready for school and then, with our neighbors from across the street, walk to school. K and the boy across the street have been in the same class since their first year of pre-school so this had been a routine for about 4 years. It's a good … Continue reading brake please, or stop you freaking idiot!!!!
