On the left side of the sanity bell curve
I put off taking my shower yesterday for as long as I could; I’m pretty sure I put it off so long in hopes I would miss my appointment. My first lesson in this whole thing is when people ask you, “How are you today?” they don’t really want the truth. And I’m not trashing… Continue reading My Left Boob! Part Deux
Last night I was thinking about babies and breastfeeding and relactation. Don’t ask me why; it was just some random tangent my brain took off on. I’ve always heard once you’ve lactated, you always will to some extent and I decided to test out that theory. Because I’m weird. And I got some colostrum looking stuff… Continue reading My Left Boob
We’re under a “Special Weather Statement” at the moment. Between Sunday night and Monday, we’re supposed to to get somewhere between two and four inches of snow. You guys up North are laughing right now but in Alabama? Folks get crazy when there’s mention of even a dusting of snow. Right now, most people are… Continue reading Snowpocalypse of 2011
I’m not sure when I stopped liking my birthday. It forces me to admit I’m getting older and eventually I’ll be that little old lady no one listens to and people patronize because they think she’s crazy. And who knows? Maybe by then I really will be crazy. And that means I’ll have lost all… Continue reading Goodbye 28, Hello 29
When Tucker takes his shower before work, I always hear him talking to himself. He says he’s planning his day; I say he’s crazy. Pot, meet kettle. This morning I was first to the shower though that’s not to say showering in the morning–or even everyday–is normal for me. By the time I get the… Continue reading The Mothers’ Bill of Rights
They don’t really taste like crazy. That was just low hanging fruit. But now you’re thinking, “Amy, what the heck are talking about and why are you writing an entire post about these ‘baby feeds’?” I’m glad you asked! First off, baby feeds is what I’m calling the category feeds I’ve set up. The ones… Continue reading Baby Feeds Taste Like Crazy
It’s all my fault; I tempted fate. Each time Tucker goes to drill, I write about how great the kids are for me; they always go easy on me. When he left Friday and the kids went completely crazy, I should have just shrugged my shoulders and gone with it. When Ollie kicked Cara in… Continue reading Pardoned By Christmas Lights
Cara’s four now. Officially a year older and I just realized I haven’t said a thing about it. Granted, things have been crazy around here – more crazy than usual – but her birthday just flew right on by me. We had a party and cake and presents but I forgot to post about it… Continue reading Belated Birthday Wishes
This is the last post in the Wisk Stain Spectrum series of reviews. You can find the other three here: Pre-Review of Wisk with StainSpectrum Technology, Wisk Protein Science Experiment [this is my mom’s favorite] and Wisk Carbohydrate Lab Tailgate Party Experiment. The subject for today’s demonstration was oil stains and I was sent a… Continue reading Wisk Says, “Go Away, Lip Gloss!”
I was in Arkansas Tuesday. The kids and I left Alabama at 7am and met my in-laws in West Memphis where I handed the kids off and continued on my way to the hospital where my dad was in ICU. Cause ICU’s where you end up when you try to kill yourself. That or the… Continue reading Swimming in the Crazy Pool
What’s funny about my post yesterday is it started out to be about how I was going to complain about looking at a really nice house today that we can afford and about how Tucker’s been put in for two new jobs – both in NE Florida. Obviously those two events are diametrically opposed. So? See?… Continue reading Blogging Isn’t Real Life
Every time I go see my counselor, Cara always asks where I’m going. At first we told her I was “going to the doctor”. Being a bit swoofter than your average child of three, she quickly caught on that our explanation might not be exactly true. So, Tucker, with his inspiring way with words, decided to… Continue reading How Do I Explain the Crazy?
