I so wish I could trust you all not to be psycho-freaks, because I would totally give out LilZoot’s IM and let you chat with him. He rocks. Example: LilZoot in his room: hey Me at the dining room table: hey LilZoot: i love you Me: i love you too stinker-butt LilZoot: i m watching the simpsons to end the conversation Me: hahahaha Me: U R FUNNY!!! I (HEART) YOU!!! LilZoot: hehehehehahahaha Me: LilZoot: i luv u Me: I luv u 2 Me: I like your bookmark, by the way LilZoot: hehe LilZoot:... Read More

TORN!

I just ate an orange and now I’m all sticky. Just thought you might like to know. Did you hear? Target is no longer selling Krispy Kremes! At least neither of our Super Targets are. They are going to make their OWN donuts in the bakery (they make Einstein Bagels in their bakery too). Evidently – Krispy Kreme hasn’t been delivering the donuts fresh enough to make the cost worthwhile. Because lets be honest, a room temperature Krispy Kreme is no different than... Read More

Random Thoughts.

Its Monday, and Mondays suck. LilZoot actually didnt have a great weekend with his Dad (which is unusual), and its all weighing heavy on my mind. MrZ has to starve himself Tuesday to prep for a medical procedure on Wednesday. As in, only BROTH and JELL-O. He gets moody when he’s 30 minutes late eating lunch. It’s gonna be UGLY. I woke up this morning, spooning with my dog. And I have a sleep bubble I dont even allow my husband in. My face is doing some sore of acne... Read More

Faking It

Posted by on January 30, 2005 · 14 Comments 

MrZ and I rented a few movies Friday night. Since it was a Friday – the pickins were QUITE slim, to say the least. I grabbed The Big Bounce and Anchorman. MrZ grabbed Shaun of the Dead and I said, “I’ll watch something else while you watch that…” Well, for some reason, MrZ doesnt like watching movies by himself, so I told him I would sit here WHILE the movie was on, but I had NO plan to actually WATCH the movie. So – in essence? I’m faking... Read More

It’s Like Being 21 All Over Again

Posted by on January 29, 2005 · 16 Comments 

Sometimes, on weekends LilZoot is with his dad, MrZ and I like to drink a lot of beer and watch tv. This is what we decided to do last night. Unfortunately – I drank all of that beer on an empty stomach and woke up this morning HUNG OVER. I mean – puking, headache, body aches, MISERY. Can you believe that? I havent been hung over in YEARS. I was whining and moaning and bitchy and all sorts of fun I know you wish you could have witnessed. HUNG OVER! ME! Like I just... Read More

Hi. I’m Kim.

This is my blog that I've been writing on since January, 2004. I call myself Zoot as it's a derivative of an old childhood nickname. I used to write about my struggles to have children, but eventually I succeeded and now, I write a lot about those kids. I don't use my kid's exact names simply because if someone Googles their very unique names in the future, I don't want them stumbling upon my entries about boobsweat. I mean, would you hire someone whose Mom writes openly about such topics? NO. YOU WOULD NOT.

I love taking pictures and carry my camera (almost) everywhere I go. This means you'll see a lot of photos on this site. I also periodically post recipes I like as I've been slowly (but surely) learning to cook and I like to share my discoveries. Finally? I'm an annoying pop culture fanatic so I'll periodically ramble about Hunger Games or the latest Parks and Recreation.

I hope you like it here. If not? Please don't tell me. I cry easily.
