Jesus Camp I saw a report about this documentary this weekend. I had never heard of it. I’m fascinated by it, even in my heathenism. (tags: religion documentary movie politics) Nikon SB-400 This is the flash I bought for my camera. Along with a great 1 cent bounce card instructions for it. (tags: photography flash sb400 kenrockwell bouncecard) Dr. Pribut on Recovering From The Marathon Dude. This says I should not run for a week. This makes me happy. (tags: running... Read More

My husband. Man of the Year.

If you’ll remember correctly – NikkiZ woke up Friday morning covered in vomit, throwing a huge wrench into our plans. My husband spent quite a bit of time that morning irritated that he was missing his golf tournament and no where near enough time (in my opinion) upset about missing my marathon. HOWEVER – he has so redeemed himself it’s not even funny. Here’s how: He changed at least 1 million outfits (on himself and NikkiZ) that were covered with... Read More

Report from the house of the pitiful

Oh yeah – I guess I should update you on NikkiZ too, huh? She’s not even close to 100%. BUT – she hasn’t run a fever in 24 hours and she hasn’t vomited in 2 days. Her poops are still not even close to solid, but we’re sending her to daycare anyway because we’re kinda awful parents like that. It’s just that other than the poops, she’s better. We’re hoping it’s just taking her body awhile to get back on track. Now... Read More

I can NOT even move this morning

What’s up? How are y’all? Did you have a good day yesterday? Yeah. Me too. I RAN A DAMN MARATHON. Okay – first off? Let’s just say that the phrase “I ran a marathon” is not exactly accurate. A better choice of words would be “I ran more than half of the marathon and then hobbled the other half.” I got to the start line at 7am, but they were doing corral starts and we were put in a corral based on how fast we said we’d run.... Read More

This is LilZ here.We just got back from the Country Music Marathon.The only reason I am writing is my Mom,MissZ is laying motionless, watching Jurassic Park, I think it is 3, with her bro’ and his future wife. I am really tired and my feet hurt.:(I know she should be the one complaining, but we have been walking around all day looking at Tennessee and meeting Momma at her mile markers. We went and ate at the place below our hotel and ate breakfast, then we came up to the... 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.
