Facebook 101

I am a 30-something Facebook junkie. Next year I’ll be a 40-year-old Facebook junkie. Better than a 40-year-old virgin. You’d think…but that might be an entire other blog post in itself. Just sayin’. The fact is, Mark Zuckerberg was on to something when he one-upped Myspace Tom -you know Myspace Tom, he’s everybody’s friend friend hoarder…

A couple of years ago, like many others, I flew from the “kooky coop” for a bit of friendly banter with “real” people. Don’t throw rotten tomatoes if I once called you my Myspace friend and now you are my IRL friend. Just ask yourself, “How long did that take? Was it really worth it?” Oh, and then don’t delete me.

Summertime Blues (aka “Too Darn Hot”!)

I am hot. Not in the “wah-wah-wah” *whistle whistle* kind of way, but in the “I’m going to bathe in a tub of ice cubes…those cute star-shaped ones in fact”…

I think I took three showers the other day. Three Cold ones. Madison said, “Mommy, you are super clean today.” Sadly, after about an hour or so, I was not.

17 Months Ago…

Kyle and I welcomed this precious child into the world. Any mother can attest to this fact – it is amazing how quickly they grow.

She was born just before 11 p.m. on a Thursday night. I had been in labor for almost 24 hours and had a difficult delivery (so happy the epidural decided to fail!) and it was almost an hour before I held and examined Sophie. I wanted to be free of the doctor doing what he was doing and the nurses buzzing around. When I looked into her eyes, I knew.

Infomercials Make Me Laugh

I love infomercials. Our garage is filled with miscellaneous $19.99 (+ shipping and handling of course) wonders like rotisseries and steam cleaners, and I use, abuse and then lose these items in the deep dark depths of our garage faster than my husband can roll his eyes.

The “New” Phys Ed

I live for finding creative solutions to challenges.  I’m a “think outside the box” kind of mom with a frequently weird strange different …..unorthodox (yep, that’s the word) approach to things.  Of course MY version of creativity isn’t always met with appreciation.
