A Man of Piles

February 9, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

So my husband is a Man of Piles.  I don’t get it.  Sure, I understand not being able to handle everything that comes your way immediately, so you need to toss stuff aside and deal with it later.  The baffling aspect of my husband’s technique though, is that he has at least 4 distinct piles […]

Audrey Hepburn Tribute

February 8, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

Straight-out tribute to the late, great Audrey Hepburn herself.  This woman just had it going on.  And when she was done having it going on, she had it going on a little more.  She oozed class from every pore of her being–from her looks, her attire, her words, her general presence…I wanted to be cool […]

1950s Housewives

February 7, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

I don’t get it.  I think about these amazing 1950s housewives (who so, so had it going on–seriously, their hair was always done and they were what, a size 2??), and wonder how they did it.  Not only that, they most often did it in heels (ahh!!!).  The thing is, they didn’t have DVDs, DVD […]

Chick-fil-A Job

February 6, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

My beloved friend JC recently suggested that she should get a job at Chick Fil-A, as it is our favorite place on earth (or at least mine, but I give her more credit than myself, so she probably would be able to think of some place less fast-foodish and more respectable to top her list…) […]

Superbowl XLVI

February 5, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

Yes, it’s Game Day, and yes, it will most definitely be on.  Cute Superbowl-themed snacks at the ready and palatable excitement in the air (yes, sure, large portion of excitement on Mommy’s part is attributed to the cool new commercials that will be aired).  Son properly keyed up and feeling cool to participate in this […]

A Stroller for Every Occasion

February 4, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

I was talking to my friend H the other day and was trying to describe all the guitars my husband owns.  Somewhere around 16 or 17 (possible exaggeration here) I lost track, gave up and said, “Oh well.  He has his guitars, I have my strollers.”  Unfortunately (in regards to storage space), this is oh-too-true. […]

And My Life Just Got a Little Better…

February 3, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

Rolling out 3/23: http://www.disneyjuniorthechannel.com/ Amazing!  No more annoying tween-addictive programming in the late afternoon.  All Mickey (or the likes there of ), all the time.  Perfection…

35″ of Accountability

February 3, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

We were talking in my Bible Study group about the importance of having an accountability partner, or someone who can keep you on the straight-and-narrow.  My guess is that most women would find a fellow adult female to rock out this gig with, but I have found myself seeking the much more convenient companionship of […]

Under the Influence…

February 2, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

…or so it would appear.  No, not actually knackered if you talk to/see me and are suspicious.  Here are the current top two reasons my speech may be slurred: 1) (The most popular right now) Have a mouth full of vitamins/pills that I have not yet found a glass of water to swallow them with. […]

Pediatric Dentist

February 1, 2012 By Meredith Leave a Comment

My anxiety about taking my son to his first dental appt. yesterday was through the roof, sleepless night beforehand and all (yes, I’m crazy).  This was largely due to the fact that every time I stick my fingers in his mouth, he bites them, and bites them hard.  I scream, then he screams–just a rather […]
