Hilly did a post the other day that resurrected the “This I Believe..” meme that went around some time ago.
I’m not that deep today.  I’m high on life, and want to keep it light and airy like Papa’s pancakes, which he claims are so light they float away so eat ‘em fast!  Now I want [...]

One night, Daren and I were in bed, and he was trying mercilessly to get me to get on board with the doing of the sexual things. I felt fat, overly so, and was very very snippy.
“You’re leaning on my hair,” I whined. I huffed, and shifted, and very nearly poked him in [...]

And not only is it awesome, it’s beautiful and amazing and you will be floored by what you are capable of when faced with a bit of a crisis, even though you are surrounded by nurses and doctors who *could* take over, but they see that you are, in fact, handling the problem well and [...]

Daren and I signed up to be on a co-ed baseball team.
I haven’t played softball since before Thomas was born and I was um, well… pretty crappy at it back then.
I don’t know anyone else on the team except the woman I gave our money to.  I saw the ad at the gym for much [...]

Recently Starbucks changed their lingo on lattes (and other drinks) from “non-fat” to “skinny.  As in, I’ll have a Quad Venti sugar-Free Vanilla SKINNY Latte, rather than “Non-Fat” Latte.
I’m not sure what prompted the corporate change, but one barista sure had a huge vent about the situation which included the politically incorrectness of the new [...]

When you find a new band that you love love love and you can’t listen to it around your spawn because the f-bomb is in it.
Jenorama recommended Vampire Weekend to me on Twitter and I bought a bunch of their songs off iTunes, courtesy of Kimberly @ Petroville. Thanks Kimberly! (Do you [...]

Sorry for the weird crap going on in the feed. There are a couple of posts that went missing and now they are restored but the comments that were on them are gone for good. I was particularly proud of this accomplishment so go see! I know, shameless hussy, aren’t I?
I’m heading [...]

So Sweetney put a call out to have everyone show off their beauty, untouched. As in, take a pic of your mug and post it to the Flickr group she’s got crackalackin’ over there.

I started running last week. It took me a long time to work up to that, believe me. I’ve never been an athlete, not in the least. In high school, I was naturally skinny, weighing 68 pounds in grade 7 and less than 100 my graduation.
At 5′7″ and 118 pounds, I got [...]

I have kind of a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach about writing this, but I’m forging ahead anyway.
When you first start mommyblogging, it’s like dating – you’re on your best behaviour, writing what you think is entertaining in one way or another, whether it be about the delicate balance of being a [...]
