5 More Friday Confessions

We finally caught up on Game of Thrones.  Pretty good show, I guess.  Gimme a glass of wine, and it’s the most amazing thing ever put on television. Sometimes I let the dog run around like an insane maniac, for the sole purpose that it makes Stevie laugh so hard that he can hardly breathe. Before…

On Growing Up

It seems to me that all moms have a very emotional response before their babies start Kindergarten. I am witnessing it first hand, all around me.  It’s the start of a new chapter. They will be with all those big kids in the elementary school! These little beings, who have been so dependent on us…

Who doesn’t love the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale?? For a time, I thought I might have to give up shopping there, but guess what?

Capsule Wardrobe Update

Last September, I made a promise to myself to stop buying clothes that were… a waste.  No more impulse sale buys, no more cheap junk, no more fast fashion.  Once I made a firm decision to do that, I realized I didn’t really even need a seasonal capsule wardrobe anymore.  It slowed me down SO…

Around Here Lately: Summer Edition

It’s no secret that I have a bit of an eff you attitude towards Summer.  I’m sorry Summer!!  It’s not totally your fault.  We certainly have our good days.  I even get sad thinking you will be gone soon.  And while I wonder if the heat might do me in once and for all this…

5 More Friday Confessions

There are two types of people in this world. Those who use a Squatty Potty and those who don’t know what that is.  When your cat gets into the dog treats and eats every single last one and you wake up to barf and poop all over your bathroom. (Thanks for not ruining my rug…

Taking Stock: Summer 2016

Making: more time for TV (we started and are almost caught up with GOT). Cooking: Stevie’s really into vegan mac + cheeze right now. So I’m technically microwaving. Drinking: this amazingly refreshing grapefruit beer. Reading: who has time to read?? No, I seriously need to know. Wanting: a whole new wardrobe. Yeah… we on that again.…

Fergus.

I would like to formally introduce you to Fergus. Ohmygoodness isn’t he handsome! I pretend that his full name is Turd Ferguson Peltekian, TF for short. But he’s really just Fergus. Ferg. Fergle. Fergalicious. Fergie. Stevie calls him Bergus. He’s been with us for just a few days and already has 100 nicknames. We adopted…
