I’m not freaking ready to start school

8.18.10

First of all, she's 4 1/2 .... when did that happen? I feel like I blinked and my baby is almost 5 years old. Second, she's going to be doing this alone.  I'm tearing up as I write now because I'm scared for her, worried about her, excited and hopeful for ...

Fine & Fabulous at….

8.17.10

I spent this entire weekend attending various events for my dear aunt that turned the big 5-0 on Saturday.  As she likes to say, she planned a National Holiday Weekend.  When my invitation arrived in the mail, I was not at all surprised to see that it included a detailed itinerary ...

No time to post

6.25.10

I've been M.I.A. for some time now.  It's been so bad that I haven't actually visited this blog in about a week (don't kill me Fergie).  Truth be told, I probably shouldn't even be posting right now. I'm not going to remind you of all the many things that us ladies ...

It’s time for swimming lessons!

I don't know if you remember my School's Out for the Summer post where I outlined an  ambitious list of things I must get done to get this summer vacation thing going.  Number 4 on the list was to enroll the little kids into swimming classes so that they can learn to ...

In over my head

5.27.10

I am sitting at my desk at work shaking as I try to sip my coffee and eat a bagel. This morning I feel like I'm about to lose it - I want to scream and I want to cry.  I feel so in over my head that it's unreal.  ...

Lack of Deodorant Notwithstanding

5.20.10

This morning, in a fit of optimism, I decided to throw some workout clothes in my lovely Blissdom '10 bag and tote it with me to work. "I'm gonna jog today during my lunch break!" I announced to Hubby. "Mmmm hmmm," he said while trying to stifle a laugh. "I'll show him!" I thought. And I ...

Life Calling

4.24.10

I'm approaching my 36th birthday and the blues are setting in - not blues about my age (although there are some beauty-related issues that have arisen lately) but blues about the fact that I still don't know my true calling in life and deep inside I feel somewhat unfulfilled and ...

We’ve been Comcasted

4.22.10

Recently Comcast underwent a digital migration that required all customers to secure a digital conversion box.  Without the conversion box, consumers are no longer able to access non-basic cable channels, so we have been relegated to watching basic cable - NBC, ABC, CBC, Fox, and our local channels - or ...

Frustrated by mediocrity

I'm surrounded by mediocrity - ever feel that way? Absolute mediocrity! The folks at my office are just not.that.smart and it frustrates the b-jizzies out of me.  I am so angry (and truth be told, kind of disgusted and ashamed) at the thought of going to work because I am ...
