Earlier this summer I caught Mel Gibson, Danny Glover, and Rene Russo on Good Morning America talking about the 30th reunion of ‘Lethal Weapon’. Remember Murtaugh and Riggs?

Thoughts I Have During Yogilates Class

I’ve been taking a yogilates class once a week for ten years now. For those of you who may not know, yogilates is a blend of yoga and pilates. (Yes, it would be much better if it was a blend of yoga and lattes!) I can’t believe I’ve been subjecting myself to such torture, er, [Read More]

July 10, 2017 By Katy 12 Comments

All about when your child's BFF is the opposite gender.

“Is that her boyfriend?” the stranger asked, winking. I looked at my ten-year-old daughter and her best friend standing next to me in the grocery store. “No, he’s just her friend,” I replied, damping down my exasperation.

April 17, 2017 By Katy 29 Comments

Here are 10 Signs You've Hit Midlife.

“Are you a midlife blogger?” the questionnaire asked. No. Wait. “Are you a midlife blogger? (45+)” the questionnaire further clarified. Well, I guess so.

I have now experienced a losing season with each of my kid’s sports teams. A few years ago, my son’s 6th grade hockey team lost every single league game it played.
