If you’ve been “reading me” for any length of time then you know that I have a Baby Hawk carrier and that I LOVE it. Even in small town Arkansas, I get compliments on it and I think that it’s damn handy to have both of my hands free so that I can deal with… Continue reading Leg Circulation is a Necessary Evil
Not That I’m Saying I Told You So…
I’m yawning so much right now that if I hadn’t been with Tucker when he got fixed then I might worry about being knocked up. However, I remember more of the procedure than Tucker does [the getting fixed part] so I know the pregnancy thing isn’t an issue. Maybe it’s the fact that Oliver is… Continue reading Not That I’m Saying I Told You So…
Side Boob

Wednesdays are supposed to be “Wordless Wednesdays”. The whole premise of the day is rather obvious – a wordless day with nothing but pictures. However, as you may have noticed, I’m not too good at the whole “wordless” thing and by the time I finally get around to posting something on my personal site there… Continue reading Side Boob
Burning the Midnight Oil

Since I got Tucker a job [FPSRantings.com], I find myself fixing images for him in CS4 and schooling him on the ins and outs of WordPress. Luckily, [for me] he’s a quick study. Because of all of this schooling, I’ve been busy doing stuff for him instead of writing here. Can you hear the violins… Continue reading Burning the Midnight Oil
On Politics and Twitter
I generally try to keep religion and politics off of this site since those are two topics that usually cause a lot of arguments and hurt feelings. Since I’m a big wuss at heart, I try to avoid conflict like I try to avoid the plague [doing good with that so far]. But, having said… Continue reading On Politics and Twitter
Avoid Cheap Batteries
Cara’s in bed and Oliver is on the Boppy on my lap. The day started with us getting up way too early to meet my aunt, cousin and his family at Cracker Barrel for breakfast. Next was a trip to Target since we were out of milk and batteries. Look. If you see the AA… Continue reading Avoid Cheap Batteries
On Southern Grief

Us Southerners LOVE us some grief. It seems that we enjoy wallowing in it. That’s the only conclusion I can draw from requiring the family of the deceased to sit and watch whilst everyone streams past the open casket. Every third person or so loses their shit and then it’s water works from just about… Continue reading On Southern Grief
Up and Down Day
Today was one of those up and down days. Some of it was good and some of it thoroughly sucked. The kids were in really good moods and Tucker was home since the semester has officially ended. Tucker cleaned up [cause he’s good at that] and I worked. Around 2pm or so, Tucker took Cara… Continue reading Up and Down Day
He Should Have Been Asleep
I had just taken Ollie in to go to bed and he wasn’t having it. His mouth has been giving him fits and I had to bust out the Motrin since he’s well within the minimum weight. After changing his diaper and attempting to put him to bed, I decided to just keep him up… Continue reading He Should Have Been Asleep
Prehensile Thumbs and Mariachi Men

So I’m not quite sure what is going on with my camera and why this picture is so damn blurry. Maybe the lens needs to be cleansed of Cara finger prints? Maybe the camera is having emotional issues since it is a well known fact that cameras do have emotions. Whatever the case, I figured… Continue reading Prehensile Thumbs and Mariachi Men
Simon’s Sister’s Dog
So if you’ve been following me on Twitter then you know that I got a PR pitch of sorts that was addressed to someone else. Way to make a girl feel special, guys. Since I’ve posted a video before by the Simon’s Cat guy, they figured that I would be interested in publicizing this new… Continue reading Simon’s Sister’s Dog
Broken Hair Dryer and Scary Cat

My hair dryer died last night. Something woke me up at like 2am and after recovering from that weird disoriented feeling that I always get right after I wake up, I realized that with the exception of Oliver making some noise, our bedroom was quiet. That’s an odd thing since usually the hair dryer is… Continue reading Broken Hair Dryer and Scary Cat
