On the left side of the sanity bell curve
Over the past holiday weekend, I’ve decided that the holidays need mental help. They are, in fact, bipolar and should, most likely, be medicated. I’ve also decided this bipolarishness comes from highly set expectations that might be attainable if not for unfamiliar ovens and dry dressing and the black hole that is moving. And I… Continue reading The Holidays are Bipolar
You know you love this song. You also don’t want to admit it but, come on, you KNOW you sing it when it comes on. Especially in the shower. It’s OK. I do it, too.

Mondays are gymnastic days for Cara and we got up and out in… Continue reading Yesterday At Gymnastics or When Ollie Melts Down and Moms Are Cool As Hell
Deep down I knew that moving to an actual neighborhood would mean that I couldn’t hide like I could in our apartment. In an apartment, people generally don’t talk to the other tenants; it’s just not expected and kind of discouraged what with the downcast eyes and all that. We moved our beds over here… Continue reading You Mean Neighbors Actually Expect You To Talk To Them?!

Or something.… Continue reading That Time I Cheated On Pandora Or Why I Dumped Spotify for Pandora
qat (kæt, kɑːt) n a variant spelling of khat Heather said she wanted a “Q” word without a “U” so here’s one: Qat. ACTUALLY, Heather demanded a list of “Q” words that don’t require a “U” to which I reply, “Suck. It.” Cause I’m classy like that. So what the hell is Qat/Khat? Khat consumption… Continue reading Word of the Day: Qat
I put this up on Google Plus yesterday right after I removed my eyelids from the greedy hands of the man child. I had planned on leaving the sentence above all by itself and jumping right into the diatribe below but I figured I should explain that just about every morning my alarm clock is… Continue reading Daylight Savings Time, a Good Riddance To You, I Say.
SOMEONE SAVE US!!! The kids will not stop interrupting us and it is about to drive Tucker and me absolutely crazy. Like running around the apartment and pulling our hair out by the roots crazy. HALP! It took Tucker at least 30 minutes to tell me a ten minute story because Cara and Ollie wouldn’t… Continue reading Mayday! Mayday! Someone Save Us From Our Children!
I suck at making rolls. Horrible roll maker. I’ll make bread for you any day–and it will be AMAZING–but please, oh please, don’t ask me to make rolls. They just take so long…and I’m not so great at the waiting thing. I made these Thursday night and then again on Friday and I’ll probably make… Continue reading The Fastest, Bestest Rolls Ever!
I’ve quit ignoring Dad’s calls. Now I just sit there and let him ramble if he wants. He mentions coming and seeing us but, considering he said that the whole four years we were stationed in Florida, I doubt that’s going to happen. Then again, he could totally surprise me. He hasn’t been himself the… Continue reading What Do You Do When Your Liar Father Might Be Lying To Your Kid?
Today, five years ago, Caroline Elizabeth was forcefully removed from my uterus. Almost two weeks late and that kid still didn’t want to come out. That should have tipped me off about what I was in for… We had Cara’s party this weekend and she got lots of awesome stuff. Even though we made it… Continue reading Happy Fifth Birthday, Cara!
