Chronicles of A Stay At Home Mom Who Is So Not That Mom
We just got home from a 9 day family vacation to Palm Springs. We all survived and made some fantastic memories along the way. It was stressful and relaxing all at the same time. (Is that even possible?) It was exhausting and invigorating all at the same time. (Can that even be?) And there were… [Read More]
It’s one of the many fallacies of motherhood…that mealtimes are supposed to be this fantastically peaceful time for the whole family to come together and talk about the day, all while relaxing and enjoying every moment of each others’ company. Let’s not get it twisted. When you have a table full of little kids, the… [Read More]
Oh, admit it. You’re just as obsessed with the Frozen soundtrack as the rest of the world. It’s been playing non-stop at our house for the last few months, and I wish I could blame it all on my kids. So what exactly is it about the song, Let it Go? Why does every little… [Read More]
Dear Abby Lee Miller, Your show, Dance Moms has been on for three years now. We’ve been watching your dancers grow up before our very eyes. It’s very clear to the rest of us how talented, kind and beautiful they are. Many of us wonder why you can’t see it for yourself. It seems you… [Read More]
A little known fact about me: I danced in the Super Bowl XXVI halftime show! For those of you who aren’t so good with roman numerals, that was way back in 1992. Every year at this time I get all nostalgic about it. I was in 9th grade, and it was REALLY fun! I got… [Read More]
Eating Crow: an American colloquialism meaning humiliation by admitting wrongness or having been proved wrong after taking a strong position Remember this post I wrote almost two years ago about about how much I resented my husband’s work travel? Well, I felt compelled to write an update. Why? Because I finally got invited on one of my husband’s… [Read More]
I’ve done it! I’ve finally figured out the secret of parenthood! And lucky for you, I’m ready to share it with all of you…my fabulous readers. You can thank me later. So today started off rough. My husband went back to work and I’m home alone with three kids all day. This house is a… [Read More]
There’s no doubt in my mind that the best part of the holiday season is the music! You’ll hear it playing in my kitchen from morning until night. I wanted to put together a playlist to share with my readers. But I wanted it to be a step beyond the traditional songs you’ve heard a… [Read More]
I am admittedly a curmudgeon sometimes…especially when it comes to certain holidays. But NOT when it comes to Christmas. I love practically everything about it. Especially the music. I’m not ashamed to admit that I start playing Christmas music the day after Halloween and I hang on through most of the month of January. I have an… [Read More]
I was chatting with a friend the other night, and we decided that it feels pretty damn good being in our mid-thirties. I believe her exact words were, “Funny how it takes until your mid-thirties to stop giving a shit about what others think.” She’s right. There’s something about the mid-thirties that feels like settling… [Read More]
