« Previous EntriesBecause I’m Such a (Rule) Follower
Sunday, March 30th, 2008My dear, sweet friend Lara (who also designed my blog) tagged me with this meme and told me I have to follow the rules. I guess I was a bit of a rebellious nonconformist on my last one. Because I love her so, I’ve promised to be a good girl and follow the rules.

Thumbs Up? Thumbs Down? You Be the Judge
Saturday, March 29th, 2008This morning I took the girls to see the movie version of Horton Hears a Who. I had mixed feelings about going. I generally don’t like it when Hollywood adapts a classic and much loved book to the big screen, plus poor ol’ Dr. Seuss isn’t around to defend himself (although his widow, Audrey Geisel […]
Fight the Frump with Whiter (Pearly) Whites
Friday, March 28th, 2008I spent the morning at the dentist, which gave me the inspiration for my FTF post. (Until they paste magazines to the ceiling, what else can I do?) It also gave me some seriously messy hair, but that’s fixable.
Anyway, as most of us know that dingy, yellow, coffee stained teeth are none too pretty and […]
Cool Beans and a Shameless Plug
Thursday, March 27th, 2008How excited am I?
Really, really excited. Cool beans excited. Trying soooo hard not to use the exclamation point excited.
Here’s why:
One of my posts is being featured over at Blogged In and you can check it out here.
If I stop now will it sound less shameless? I sure hope so.
Okay, one more thing…..I’m so honored!!!
…shutting […]
Turn the ‘Tude Around
Wednesday, March 26th, 2008My aunt has been visiting and was so sweet to take us to dinner last night. All through dinner I couldn’t help but notice a cute little baby girl at the table next to us. She was around six or seven months old, sitting in a high chair fussing her cute little head off. She […]
The Bully and the Bear
Wednesday, March 26th, 2008One of the hardest lessons I learned growing up was this: Not everyone in the world is going to like me. How devastating. Shocking even, but true. It didn’t matter how nice I behaved or how hard I tried. It was what it was. I can’t remember when it happened or exactly how it got […]
I’m It, You’re Not
Tuesday, March 25th, 2008That title sounds so snotty, does it not? It really isn’t though. You just might end up loving me for it after reading this post.
I got tagged by her hotness Tamra (a.k.a. Baby Mamma) at It All Started with a Kiss for the 7 Weird Things About Me meme. I’m too lazy and tired to […]
Things I’ve Lost: Sleep and My Mind
Monday, March 24th, 2008It’s occurred to me that I post a lot about being tired, the reason being I haven’t had a good night’s sleep since 1998. Really.
Sleep deprivation tends to make me pretty goofy. It doesn’t take much to get me to laugh anyway, but when I’m tired it borders on insanity. My poor husband has a […]
Big Sticky Mess - Now with Pictures!
Friday, March 21st, 2008This morning the kids and I hurried up and baked another batch of Resurrection Buns. Why the rush? Well, it’s Easter egg hunting season at our local park. Sugary, buttery cinnamon buns are the breakfast of choice before hunting down sugary, chocolately treats. Makes my teeth hurt just thinking about it.
Because I aim to please, […]
Fight the Frump - Be Nosy
Friday, March 21st, 2008Far too often our job as Mom requires us to boldly go where well, no one else boldly goes. Where no one else even WANTS to go. Tasks such as scrubbing toilets, wiping bottoms and nose maintenance. You know what I mean.
For FTF Friday I’m boldly taking this post where we often forget to go […]
