Someone please explain to me how it’s in any way possible that every single freakin’ day of summer vacation was the longest, most relentless day of my life — yet somehow, someway, the whole thing flew by?? It makes no sense at all. Even with my goals to have a sunshine filled, joyful, easy breezy beautiful one……
As most of you know, Stevie had another eye surgery yesterday. This was his 9th time under anesthesia. The fourth eye surgery. Three of those being on his eyelids. Does he have 3 eyelids?? No, the first one just failed, so we had to do it again. I have many, many grumpy faces and new…
Here’s the deal, guys. I’m not like into art. I don’t even know what this particular art installation is called. The worst. But here’s the thing: I like seeing new, unique things. I like participating in whatever thing is all the rage (to an extent). And, most importantly, at the top of my list, is…
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…
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? They have an easy search option online to find items Made in the USA. And I’ve rounded up my favorite sale items for you here! Of course, they are mom-friendly, basic items…
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…
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…
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…
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.…
