It’s the weekend!!!! Last weekend I updated you on the craziness that has been going on in our life, but geez, I’ve also been so busy at work (and I’m not even talking about running the nonprofit!). Allow me to update you on a month’s worth of articles that I wrote while sitting the waiting
As usual, it’s been really busy around here and since you guys are always sweet enough to email me and see what we are up to, here’s the monthly update! I’ve been working insane hours and there’s been something else taking up a lot of my time (which we will talk about later this week
A friend and I took our kids to the zoo. The biggest attraction came during lunch when we found a crazy looking caterpillar. To say that we were interested yet terrified would be the understatement of the century. At one point my friend got him to cling onto a stick and when she
So, do you want to know what has been keeping me (and Mr. Attorney Man) busy? Fighting with my state. The child support office has STILL been withholding my child support payments, since last August! AN ENTIRE YEAR!!!!! I don’t want to delve into the entire story again, so if you are new to this
Hi!! Sorry it’s been a bit silent over here. A project for the nonprofit was sucking up all of my time and as I finally hit the tail end of that, I was slammed with the news that a dear friend of mine (who was also my children’s babysitter) died suddenly over the weekend.
Alright, I need some advice. I have absolutely no idea what to do about a situation with my daughter and a dance class she is in, and you guys are super smart, so please send advice! My daughter, The Girl Child, has been dancing since she was three. **Now before we go any further, in
It’s funny how everyone waits for summer to get here so that they can kick back and relax, but then the minute it gets here we all take off running and throw relaxation to the side! Here’s just a snapshot of what the Strong family has been up to: As I said before, someone graduated
Talk about a whirlwind of a weekend!! Geesh. Is it Friday yet??? Oh no wait. Friday just passed. Wowzers. My Friday night ended like this: A few friends brought tasty things and came over to chill out after a long week, and trust me when I say that it was a LONG week. Aside from
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
Wow, it has been a BUSY day. First off, it started at 3:30am. I had a super creepy dream about my ex, so much so that I couldn’t fall back asleep because it had freaked me out so bad. By the time the kids got up I was so completely wired that I ran five
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
It’s No Work Weekend!! My Platonic Husband and I kicked it off with an attempt to make Strawberry Daiquiris. The funny thing is that every time someone comes over they say “Hey, what can I bring?” and what I really want to say is “Laundry detergent, dish soap, paper towels, and food for the kids,” but that’s
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.
