Seriously: “Not Happening”

“I will never, ever go camping… I’m terrified of bugs (as is the daughter-sadly-in-training) and prefer room service over cooking eggs over a fire”. Well, that was me a few months ago. That is, before going on a camping trip (trekking 3 miles into the forest with EVERYTHING ON OUR BACK including-about-10-liters-of-alcohol-to-aid-in-sleeping) with my oldest [...]

Seriously? – “Shoot(ing!) for the Stars”

Touche, Mon Frere

LOVE FedEx tracking. How did people live prior? I watched it like a hawk all day. Something actually had me excited for a few hours today… for the first time in weeks. I guess the excitement we experience in 2010 RE: technology is similar to our parents’ animated reactions when they found a special something [...]

Finally, my “Actual” Interview on Oprah Radio!

Never Say Never: “I’ve never read a blog, I never will”

Famous last words of one unnamed brother. Welp, I proved him wrong. He just couldn’t resist. When I told my family I was starting a blog with hubby, 80% of them said, “What’s a blog?”, the other 16% said “Why the hell would you do that with everything else you have going on?”, and other [...]

Never Say Never: Let “my” child walk around “like that”

When I had no kids… possibly even when I only had 1 kid — okay, if you read my I used to be anal and thought I loved it post — when I even just had 2 kids… I’d nudge my hubby in DISGUST when I saw another kid whose nose was just freakin’ nasty. [...]
