Testing 1,2,3

I re-downloaded the plugin for my “private entries” function but I’m not sure if it’s working. If you are a registered user here, will you login and then click on the category (right below the title of this entry) that says “Private Entries” and tell me if you see more than this entry? There should be another one from the day of my miscarriage (I would suggest you NOT read that one – I set it as private for a reason) and possibly a weightloss... Read More

Hey – at least my baby wasn’t carrying my cigarettes.

I’m so overwhelmed with having internet access back in my home, that I’m dying to tell you about every little mundane thing that has transpired in my life over the last several days. I mean, sure BlogHer was fun and Marilyn will never room with such a boring party-pooper again, but there are other more boring things to discuss. Like the fact that I got ministered to last night in my front yard while drinking a beer! Praise the Lord! NikkiZ, Stace’s daughter and... Read More

Dear Blog, I missed you so!

As of yesterday afternoon, we have internet! It was touch-and-go for a little while as they said they may not be able to get it working until Saturday. I told them that this statement was not acceptable as I had a blog I had to update nineteen times a day! How am I supposed to do that? YOU MUST FIX IT NOW. And they did. Because I’m scary and intimidating. Or maybe it just was a “area-wide outtage” and it was fixed because of the 1000 other customers calling in... Read More

I might rather go without diet cokes

I’m back but we have NO internet at home. Not only am I going to have to deal with that service call (hopefully today) but the roofers are also dropping off the supplies and I’ve got to take LilZ school supply shopping. So, I’m eating breakfast at Breuggers with the free wi-fi just so I can assure you all I made it back from BlogHer okay (more on that later) and that I’m alive and trying to function without internet access in my home. Which is pretty close... 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.
