Babysitter’s Club
What a truly exhausting weekend! I’m still walking a little oddly thanks to the most AWESOME hike ever. I imagine I’d we walking the same if I had ridden a horse all weekend. My ass hurts SO BAD. I no know that if I ever wanted a really firm butt, I’d need to do nothing more than walk straight UP for 3.5 miles carrying a kid on my back. Evidently doing that really works the glutes. Speaking of my ass… Man. I really wish I had something funny to say here.... Read More
The Story Of The Stupidest Idea Ever
Do you see the sign on the right there? It says This trail is 6.0 miles roundtrip descending 1000 feet. Participants need to be in good physical condition and allow 6 hours for an enjoyable completion of your hike.

You’re A Grand Ole Flag
You know what is the best feeling as a working Mom? Knowing your kids are in good hands while you’re making money to pay for their outrageously priced (but irresistable!) 4th of July skirts.

I would have paid that too because…are you kidding me? Red, white, and blue tutu? How could I resist? That’s why I work. So we... Read More
Knocking On Wood Violently
I have written often in the last two years about NikkiZ and her tendency to be…evil. Her blatant rule-breaking (usually while smiling her evil little smile), her yelling, her abuse, and her manipulative behavior. I first categorized it all as The Terrible Twos – until she turned three. Then many of you pointed out that three is beyond terrible. But that four? Gets much better. I remembered cursing you all for not warning me about the Evil Threes and counting down... Read More
Just Doing My Part…
Okay. I’ve spent 24 hours now thinking about whether or not Mommyblogging is still a radical act. And first off? I have no problem with the word MommyBlogger. I think at times it has bothered me but lately I’ve realized that YES: I write about more than just my kids. BUT – if someone is going to NOT read me because I’m a MommyBlog? Then I don’t think I want them here anyway. So, while it may not be the way I’d describe my blog if I had more... Read More
