I haven’t written specifically about K in a while. I think sometimes I am still amazed that she is mine. That I have a daughter. A spunky, bossy, girly-girl that doesn’t take “No” for an answer, princess-loving GIRL. On any given day her hair is a tangled mess, she has food on her face and…
Why the number “6” balloon doesn’t bother me…
I am sitting in hubby’s home office on the weathered leather sofa, my legs tucked under me. I look out the French doors into our living room and my eyes glance up at the ceiling. I notice that the gigantic Mylar balloon left over from G’s birthday party a few weeks ago, is floating there….
A Trip Down Pregnancy Lane
When I look back on photos of me pregnant I smile. But then I grimace a little too. I really liked being pregnant all three times. Except towards the END. No, I was not a fan of the terrible “morning” sickness I had with B and my “Wall-E” feet that I had with K. And…
Summer Scratching
I am going to admit right here, right now that not setting my phone alarm for 6:45 every morning has been glorious. Summer is awesome for that. Did you know that I am not much of a morning person? Ask Tim, he’ll tell you. With fervor. 😉 He seems to be a morning AND night…
MJ and old Things (including me)
I recently found a new radio station and they play a lot of good “old” music, you know like Michael Jackson, circa 1984. One morning the kids and I were driving somewhere when “Wanna be Startin’ Somethin’” came on the radio and I cranked it up and started car dancing and then talked about how…
You Be the Judge (a mini vlog included)
Have you even been told you look like someone? Maybe someone’s sister or aunt or even a celebrity? Well last week I had two people from COMPLETELY different parts of my life tell me I look like a woman in a cereal commercial. So of course I had to check this out because apparently this…
More Scenes from New Orleans!
One of the reasons I was excited for our tip to New Orleans is because it gave me a chance to take more photographs around the city. It really is an amazing place. I’ll let the ton of photos tell the tale… click to enlarge

Old School Blogging, June
I originally posted the answers to this Old School meme back in July of 2008! Some of them have changed out of preference and some have stayed the same since they are fact. It was still fun to go back and read my almost five-year old answers though. Apparently my love for chocolate has waned…
Guest Post at Kludgy Mom
I don’t talk about s.e.x. very much here on the blog. So maybe that’s why I am talking about it today on someone else’s! Gigi gave me the floor at Kludgy Mom and so I wrote about how my own body image tends to affect “special” time with my hubby. Yeah, I know. Kinda heavy…
