The Next American Idol
I love my 3 year-olds version of the Spider-man song, especially the inflection of his voice when with the “of course he can” portion. Though, somewhere along the way he mashed it up with Santa Claus is coming to Town. Not his best rendition, but you get the idea. Pardon the crap quality of the…
More Cow Bell
My Friday was a crap sandwich. On one end was putting down our 10 1/2 year-old yellow lab Briddy, the other end was me working late (finishing an extensive project) while my husband dealt with one kid barfing and one kid bawling. This, my friends, is no way to start a weekend. The 9 year-old…
Time + Effort = Quality
If this equation holds true this dresser will be in the family for generations. Though we all know I will be lucky if lasts long enough for the blisters on my hands to heal. I literally put my blood, sweet, and tears into this goddamn lovely dresser for my sons room. Only to get to…
Double Feature
We re-joined Netflix and as a result have been watching a ton more movies. This week I even went to the theatre twice to see a movie. I don’t think I have done that since high school when there was no better or cheaper form of entertainment. Those were the days of John Hughes films…
Market and Museum
We checked out the Green City Market at the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum today. Went thru the museum too while we were there. The market was really crowded, I’d prefer to go when it is not indoors. We didn’t get much, just apples and apple cider. The kids got a huge piece of egg pie…
Spaceship, Baseball, AND Football
The three year-old is constantly telling tales of his very involved dealings with stories about his spaceship and all the adventures he has, his football team (he evens tells us when he has practice), and his baseball team. I delved into all of these topics with him a bit further. Many details have been lacking…
What is a resolution anyway?
I am late in the game as far as resolutions go, it has been a busy year already! I don’t generally make New Year’s resolutions, at least I don’t think I do. What is a resolution anyway? In the context on New Years it seems to be a resolve or determination: to make a firm…
Jillian Michaels, you Bitch!
I mean that with all due respect, your Wii workout has kicked my ass. I am sore from head to toe. Seriously, anything I drop has to be really valuable for me to dare bend over and to retrieve it. Ouch! Getting fit and losing weight is one of my main focuses in the New…
10 years Beyond Y2K
For about 6 years running we had a big New Year’s Eve party. Then everyone got busy with kids, new friends, and we changed traditions. This year we are celebrating at home with a few close friends. As I was preparing the bar I ran across a bottle of champagne we had everyone sign in…
