Lest you live in one of those more modern parts of the country where you have fancy things like power and heat, around these parts, as I write this, we are without such amenities. I whined about the weather on Wednesday, yet things have since taken more of an Apocalypse-now turn. Let’s just say it’s […]
I’m a Messy Mom and I’m Proud of It
When my friend Roshni, over at Big A Little a nominated me for Messy Moms Radio‘s Messiest Mom of the Week, I was slightly confused at first. Sure, I know I’m messy, but was this meant to be an honor? After checking out the tagline on this site, “Good moms have sticky floors, messy kitchens, […]
I Lit My Kitchen on Fire
I alluded to this a bit ago when I was hashing about a really horrible day I was having, but I think I need to clarify: I actually lit my kitchen on fire. Source: Microsoft ClipArt Doing my best to light it up and be positively illuminating for the rest of you… It was the […]
Keepsakes

Cleaning
I hate cleaning. Loathe it. Will put it off for forever. I could do laundry or wash dishes until I am blue in the face, but cleaning…not so much. A couple days ago though, I decided to embrace my inner Mom of the Year and go for it. It went well. My son started rolling […]
What the Heck Was I Thinking??
Recently I had Not My Best Day Ever. I was crabby, cranky, grouchy, irritable, (throw in your own favorite adjective in to describe Mommy At Her Worst)…the thing was, it was all my fault. WHAT THE HECK WAS I THINKING?!? I totally set myself up for failure, brilliantly deciding it would be a good idea […]
