True to my word, I’ll make no real appology for NOT blogging in simply forever…. Just busy with life. Real busy! Running as fast as I can and not really seeming to actually GET anywhere.
With a whole lot a this..
A bunch of this…
Supervising these…
Driving to this….
And this…
I’ve actually been helping out my Lawyer Husband with [...]

Every time I run across this letter, it amazes me and makes me giggle. This year it is just a bit more hysterical, since I have my own 9-year-old girl. I’m sure she probably thinks she can do it herself as well. Thanks Mom, for saving things like these to remind me how completely insane I [...]

Hugo is growing SO fast! I think the length of his legs has doubled in size since we got him. He went to the park yesterday where we ran into two families who have “grown up” Bostons! I love the fact that so many Boston owners are so passionate about the breed. Here’s my guy at [...]

…so why is it that all I can see is how dirty the windows look as the light comes through? Seriously… I mean that in the literal as well as the figurative sense. I have a bit of the “blues.” Maybe if I get out of the house I can just see the sun and [...]

I remember a time when doing something rebellious meant that if one was caught doing said action, various state and federal agencies could have been called to handle the matter.
Last night as I emptied the dishwasher, I really wasn’t feeling like emptying the silverware compartment…. too fiddly… too much sorting… so I emptied the rest [...]

I went, alone, to have the oil changed in my mini van over the weekend. It’s always such an embarrassing situation for me. Usually, I have my husband do it, just so I can avoid the utter “stupidness” of it all. First… I never know the answers to their questions. I just roll the window down [...]

It’s Monday and you have eleven million things to get done. The little ones will be in school and you will have a whopping 2 and 1/2 hours of child-free time in which to accomplish those eleven million things. You wake up a little bit late, rush around like a mad woman getting the girl-child ready, [...]

Before she is allowed to go to gymnastics, Miranda must finish her homework. Her little face just says it all. Not quite happy, but still sweet.

I’ve made a bear out of the most delicious new fabric! It’s such a unique and beautiful color… sort of a dusty pale, mauvy-eggplant… but it has a warm brownish cast in some light as well. How’s THAT for a description! After endlessly combing through my huge stash of yarn, ribbon, beads, and buttons… nothing I [...]

Today I managed to step on a Lego so hard that it actually cut into my flesh! My big toe is so sore I can hardly put on a shoe! Rather than the typical “ratings” and warnings on kids toys… you know the ones “small parts,” “choking hazard for ages 0-3,” etc… I’d like to [...]
