On the left side of the sanity bell curve
I’ve come to accept in the last couple of days that I’m a hollerer. I start out quiet [Or, as quiet as I can be; I’m pretty loud all the time.] and then escalate to something around the decibel region of a tornado siren. I don’t mean to go there…to that place. I would much rather be… Continue reading I’m Harpyesque
I get to see my kids today. Yay! And I can type that without being sarcastic. Sure the house is really clean and tidy. Sure the kids’ rooms look like they have been set up for a photo shoot or something. Dinners have been eaten later than they’ve been eaten in almost four years. We… Continue reading My Butt Hurts and I Get to See My Kids
I didn’t start watching Sex and the City until 2003. By that time, the series was almost over and I had a friend who was willing to loan me all of her DVD box sets. Needless to say, I was hooked and when the first movie came out, I saw it the first week it… Continue reading Sex and the City 2 Soundtrack Review with Videos
Yup. That’s right. Oscar the Cat has gone to live with the cats in heaven and is probably pissing all over St. Peter’s dirty clothes. [Thanks to the Twitterverse for helping me remember St. Peter.] I called last Thursday to check on Oscar since Mondays and Thursdays are surgery days and I should have known… Continue reading I Didn’t Die but Oscar Did
Let’s start the “clock” over, shall we? I’ve taken two days off of shredding [damn you, Fallout 3…not really…I still love you…we can play later, right?] and Tucker has decided that we’ve MAJORLY slacked off. He’s numbered 30 days on our dry erase calendar and has decreed that we shall not stop this madness until… Continue reading It’s All About the Sparkle
It’s Monday but surely I’m not the only one who feels like it’s Sunday? Right? Please tell me I’m not the only one. I spent the entire weekend playing Fallout 3 and having a kick ass time of it. Ollie crawled around and was a big ole dork. He basically only seemed interested in me… Continue reading The Weekend and a Call for a Job
Nap time is a BAD time for me to workout. In theory it’s great. Both kids are asleep. No distractions. Nothing to get in between me and Jillian Michaels. Except all of the work that I know that I should be doing and how much of that work I can squeeze into those two [sometimes… Continue reading Latenight Shedding and No More Drug Dealers
That slapping sound you hear? Yeah, that would be my boobs. Apparently I need a sports bra. This regular bra just ain’t cutting it. Tonight was my first episode of the 30 Day Shred and my FINGERS are shaking a little bit while I type this. It’s not that I exercised my fingers, but my… Continue reading The Structural Integrity of Jell-O
The last time I committed to something like this I found out not too long after that I was pregnant with Oliver. Since Tucker is now fixed, that shouldn’ t be an issue this time around. I have ALWAYS had weight issues; I don’t remember ever not being concerned about my weight. I have a… Continue reading Shredded to Pieces
The “retro” cartoon character is in big demand right now. The Cartoon Network has Boomerang that shows all of the classic cartoons from back in the day and it’s the only place that I can find Tom and Jerry-one of Cara’s favorite “new” cartoons. I think this retro cartoon thing is in response to the… Continue reading Great DVD Just Plug Your Ears
Usually when Cara and I disagree on a DVD it’s because she’s liking something that’s crap and I’m having to sit through the stupid thing. That wasn’t the case this time. THIS time we watched a DVD that was entertaining but not a dumbed down “baby” DVD. Click here to read the rest.
The one negative that I have to say about My Baby A to Z is that it’s not very long. By the fourth time of Cara cycling through the video and me being punched in the arm to restart the video, I finally got smart to the “continuous play” option. [I think my arm is… Continue reading Bruised and Engaged
