And they’re totally right. I told them to come clean my house so I would have time to actually do something else outside of work, but all I got were wrinkled noses and shaking heads on that one. But, I’m trying to write a blog anyway. YOU’RE WELCOME, SISTERS.

So the last few weeks have been…overwhelming. In case you are wondering, trying to find a nanny sucks. Like I want to spend my evenings conducting interviews, you know? We decided on hiring a girl, offered her a job on a Sunday, told her she’d start on Wednesday, and thought everything was just dandy. . . . → Read More: Life goes on

Uh…this thing on?
*Tap tap*
I believe this is what is called a weblog, yes? You…type? And it goes out to the…Internets? It’s been so long I’m a bit rusty on how all this works.
Dear bloggy friends, I have not forgotten you. I’ve just been blasted busy. Yes, really. Busy and exhausted. I . . . → Read More: Ahem…

A happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there yesterday!
While I realize I’ve been light in the posting department lately, I wanted to give a little shout out to dads.
Dads are awesome aren’t they?
I mean, don’t get me wrong, moms are awesome too. But I’m a firm believer that having . . . → Read More: Fathers

So much news lately! So much to write! And yet, I seem to be so easily distracted by eating peanut butter and honey sandwiches (have you tried adding bananas? Delicious!) and watching episodes of Hoarders, which is straight-up ridiculous. But really? I’m spent. I’m forcing myself to relax a little this weekend, which has . . . → Read More: At last…

This last year has been a difficult one for me. Not in an epic-catastrophic-event kind of way, as I know others around the world have experienced, which I am grateful for. Instead, the best way I can describe it is that I’ve been walking my way through a gray mist, with some stumbling blocks . . . → Read More: Finding my wings

I haz it.
The end.
Ok, fine, that is a lame excuse for a post. But yes, I do have writer’s block, in a way. In reality, I write stuff all the time… in my head. But lately it never seems to flow out through my fingertips and onto my keyboard. Why is that? . . . → Read More: Writer’s block

The other day I got that dreaded letter in the mail.
I’ve been summoned for jury duty.
I realize a fair trial where you are judged by your peers is one of the privileges of living in a free and democratic society, and that it is my civic duty to participate, but who has . . . → Read More: I suppose some would call it a privilege…

Well, it has officially been one week since the binkies hit the trash. Can I just take a moment to brag about what a great kid I have? I really feel like we’ve hit the 2 year old jackpot. Like all toddlers, my little girl can be emotional, irrational, stubborn, strong-willed, whiny, clingy, and . . . → Read More: Bye bye binkie, part 2

This has been a banner week for me so far. Not only did I blow dry my hair and straighten it yesterday, but I did today as well! Yes friends, that is TWO days in a row! Actually, scratch that, I did on Saturday and Sunday too, so that is FOUR days in a . . . → Read More: Thoughts for a Tuesday
