My husband discovered he really enjoys gardening, so the size of our produce garden quadrupled. Watermelon, raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, eggplant, bell peppers, tomatoes, cantaloupe, swiss chard, kale, pumpkin, zucchini, leeks, celery, bok choy and a variety of herbs. My garden is insane and full to the brim with zucchini. Virtually all of our plants are […]
It’s become a nonstop whirlwind in my corner of the world. Vacation, work, parties, doctor appointments and major cleaning/painting projects have ruled my life over the past week, and I’m ready for a breather. A brief recap of my week: The kid’s rooms have been switched over. B’s room is painted and decorated, minus his […]
Not even ten am, and my day is already in full swing. Amazing how children change your life. Six years ago, my husband and I welcomed our six pound bundle into our lives. The days of sleeping in on off days and doing as we pleased when we pleased were put on hold, if not […]
Three things I just don’t have enough of. There aren’t enough hours in the day. I have a limited supply of energy. There is never enough cash to tackle everything. The last few months have flown by and have been jammed packed. Most of my family’s activities are connected to this sweet little thing… She’s […]
December was going to be the month of Christmas crafts and training for my first long race since April. December was instead the month of not having enough energy to get off whatever I was curled up on, unless it was for running to the bathroom to puke for the umpteenth time. No, December was […]

Low and behold, it didn’t clean because the inside, I’m embarrassed to say, looked like this: Uhm, ew. No wonder it didn’t clean. So, I had to clean the […]
Over the last few months, our living room bathroom has developed a nasty stale pee smell that just won’t go away. How disgusting is that?! It doesn’t seem to matter what I clean that bathroom with. The stink always returns. I changed cleansers. I bought one of those blue things that stays in. I even […]
Can I tell you how much I love having a kiddo in school? It’s quite the amusing adventure. On a daily basis, he brings home things like this: Oh, my! I’ve been trying to catch up with The Walking Dead, and that’s the first image that comes to mind when I look at this. I’ve […]
Another item checked off B’s Fall Break to do list: pumpkin picking!
It’s fall break this week. My son and I put together a list of todo’s while he’s out of school. Here’s some highlights. We made phones out of a tupperware container and a can. It provided many minutes of entertainment for my little ones. Art project of the week. Brooks shoe boxes are awesome. […]
