As I mentioned last week, my family is just back from a week at Disney World. This time, we spent 3 days at the parks and 3 days on our first-ever cruise. It was everything a trip to Disney should be–fun, exciting, tiring, etc. Below I’m sharing 3 of my favorite photos from our trip. [Read More]
Wishing You a Funny Friday
I’m hungover. No, not from alcohol. From Disney World! We got back Monday night and I’m still feeling the effects: extreme exhaustion and disorientation due to massive laundry piles, legs that walked to Timbuktu and back, and excessive amounts of eating out. While I struggle to get back to normal, I hope these cartoons bring [Read More]

I Love My Kids, But…
My kids have been out of school since December 20. They were supposed to go back Monday, January 6. However, Monday was a snow day and Tuesday was a holy-cow-it’s-never-been-this-cold-don’t-go-outside day. As I loaded some laundry into the washer on Monday, it hit me.

A Cat, a Dog, a Lover, and Beethoven
I didn’t mean to. Really, I didn’t. But somehow between Christmas, New Year’s, the kids being out of school, me taking off work to be home to take care of them, and the deep freeze and deep snow that consumed our area, I just didn’t blog for nearly 2 weeks. So what did I do? [Read More]

The Truth about School Holiday Parties
We’ve got 3 school parties before the schools shut down for winter break (which is surprising as I only have 2 kids!)  My son, age 10, has his party in 5th grade on Friday. My daughter, age 7, had two parties in her 1st grade class. One was on Thursday afternoon and one is all day [Read More]
