Yesterday, I was going to write a post. It was going to be lighthearted, and would describe the rabbit hole I fell down while looking at old photos of the boys, ending up watching old home videos and crying in the manner of Clark Griswold locked in the attic. “Mama go yo-yoga!” impossibly chubby, not […]
I’m singing! And I’m in the post office. And I’m SINGING!
December 10, 2012 by
Hey, what has two thumbs and just made it in and out of the post office in less than five minutes? THIS GIRL. I had to mail a package to my in-laws – because I’m such a fabulous daughter-in-law – and I was psyching myself up for total mayhem and trauma. I was even ready […]
Come and trim the Christmas tree with some decorations (not) bought at Tiffany’s
December 5, 2012 by
I am feeling SO FESTIVE right now, and not just because this was the lovely wintry scene when I walked the dog the other day: Look at his adorable snowy face! As I mentioned before, December is one of my favourite months even though when I hugged Jake today he complained of my icy cold […]

FEEL THE ENERGY
November 26, 2012 by
Every month, I realize anew that my complete lack of energy for a week, followed by super-strength-energizer-bunny energy is actually related to my, how shall I put this, lady cycles. And yet every month I find myself wondering what is wrong with me, and why am I so tired? Last week everything was a massive […]
So bored! Send entertainment!
November 23, 2012 by
Here we are now. Entertain us.Jake is now in Day Two of a cold. I kept him home yesterday in hopes that it would be a quick recovery, only to have him wake up this morning, worse. Backfire! I’m not complaining too much; my kids are rarely sick and rarely miss school. Even with swollen, […]
