Was it just me or was April insanely busy? Aside from the daily grind of work/dance/school/daycare/, we also spent several weekends in a row at Easter festivals. I say Easter festival and not egg hunt because these days you go for the hunt but then you stay for the games. I really don’t remember having
Yesterday The Boy Child managed to knock a full bowl of pasta sauce off the table and onto the floor. I cannot even describe what this looked like and of all the things I take pictures of, I can’t believe I didn’t even snap one of this. Actually, I guess I can believe it, seeing
Below are a few pics I snapped on my phone last spring. When you live near farmland like I do, you tend to get hit with more severe weather than other areas might. Not only can you get caught in the deadly situation of driving for miles upon miles with no place to seek shelter,
Boys. Moms, do I really need to say anything else? They really are a different breed aren’t they? I give my daughter a toy and she’s all “this is great! Show me how it works!” and I give the same toy to my son and he’s all “this is great, whatever it is and whatever
After nearly two decades of hard drug use, my ex’s brain started to cook. I feel fairly confident in giving him that medical diagnosis despite the fact that I myself have never personally attended medical school, simply based on the fact that I was around him long enough to watch his brains actually start to
I saw something at the gym today that was….well… Ok, so you all know that I hit the gym pretty regularly. My family and I were lucky enough to get a scholarship slot at our local YMCA and I was pretty stoked because it has a state-of-the-art fitness center within it. Now when I was
Actual conversations I’ve had with The Girl Child this week; “Mom, if I stick my finger in there will I be ‘electrocubed’?” “Yes kid, if you stick your finger in the socket you will be electrocuted.” ….five minutes later. “Why are you still staring at the socket?” “I’m trying to decide if I want to
A new roommate has moved into my house. It hasn’t been going well. First off, he wears my shoes. On his entire body. I do not like that. First though, let me rewind. The other day The Girl Child had a birthday party to attend at a farm-zoo. Yep, that’s what people do around these
I hurted mah-self doing the twerk. Twerk much? Too much. My friend asked me to fill in for her and teach her twerking class over the weekend. Did you know there was such a thing as a twerking class? I did not right up until that moment. I’ve taught a bit of twerking in my
The last time we chatted about medical procedures I told you about the time I got an epidural line threaded into my ass cheek while a herd of medical students watched, so today I thought I would tell you about what happened after that. **If you did not read the post “True Stories From The Operating Room,”
It’s Monday!This is what I woke up to this morning (well technically I woke up to this “yesterday” morning, this post was written at like 2am Monday morning): A little man standing on my bed while he exclaimed “look how big my muscles are!” As much as I like the weekends, I also like Mondays.
I DROVE ON THE EXPRESSWAY!!!!! I’m telling you, I wasn’t kidding when I said I was determined to get over this fear of mine! Thankfully my friends were all in when I told them about project “Helping Eden Get Over Her Absolutely Ridiculous Fears” and so off we went, to tackle my fears and create nightmares. A few
My husband said he was going to the store... and never came back. It's been a crazy life that's left me functional enough to survive yet dysfunctional enough to make me funny. I'm living my life devoid of most social graces while single parenting two young children and I absolutely love it....most days.
