Fall Tease

The kennel door is open...promise.

What does this picture say to you?  [The kennel door is open, by-the-way.] To me, it means that the end of the summer is getting damn close and the beginning of Fall is on its way. Let me explain. We live in Arkansas and Arkansas is usually unbearably hot from sometime in May until sometime… Continue reading Fall Tease

Still Pregnant

As I’m typing this, I’m having a contraction.  BUT, it’s not one of those, “OH MY GAWD I’M IN LABOR” contractions.  It’s just something to remind me that I have absolutely no fucking control over this pregnancy whatsoever. Last night I woke up thinking, “Damn, that hurt!” and I promptly went back to sleep. I’ve… Continue reading Still Pregnant

36 Weeks and Change

Yesterday was an interesting and eventful [yet uneventful] day. I know we did something other than eat at O’Charley’s but I really can only remember the lunch part. There is a point somewhere around here… So we were eating lunch and my back started hurting.  Then my stomach started hurting.  Then, they started hurting in… Continue reading 36 Weeks and Change

I Leave You with This

I’m on my way out the door to head to Little Rock but I wanted to leave you with a look at my hair this morning. The pregnancy hormones have calmed down a bit and after I got to mess with the hair a little bit, I don’t absolutely hate it like I did.  It’s… Continue reading I Leave You with This

Butchered

This was me at around 15:30 today.  I was not happy.  Can you tell? I used to look like this: I liked this hair cut.  It made me feel pretty and thin and like I looked LIKE A FUCKING GIRL. I’ll try and keep the story short. I got my hair cut like a month… Continue reading Butchered

The Bed

Cara got a toddler bed yesterday. As you can see from the picture, her crib is still up.  I figured I was doing good by just getting the toddler bed put together.  Actually, I was a fucking rockstar! That bed has eight slats.  Each one of those slats has a peg on each end of… Continue reading The Bed

An Evolving Battle

We have had issues with eating out with Cara since she was a tiny infant.  Actually, that’s not totally right.  Other people have had issues with us eating out with Cara since she was a tiny infant. When Cara was an itty bitty baby, I would breastfeed her when we went to dinner.  Since I… Continue reading An Evolving Battle

F U Friday

Friday, glorious Friday! Actually, I don’t have that unnatural love/devotion for Friday any longer since I stay at home with Cara.  Don’t get me wrong, Fridays are fine but it’s not like I get to leave “the office” for the weekend and come back on Monday.  I’m rambling now aren’t I? Sorry. It’s Fuck You… Continue reading F U Friday

Short End of the Stick

I am awake.  I have been awake since 5 am. Cara is awake.  Cara has been awake since 5 am. Do you see a correlation here? Not only did she wake up but I could here her bouncing in her crib and couldn’t help but hear the earsplitting screams.  [Cara, is the screaming REALLY necessary?!]… Continue reading Short End of the Stick
