Monday I had a long day at work. I was tired. I came home to find no less than 8 action items needing my attention on behalf of Will, who is in First Grade. Here, for your reading pleasure, are the things my little brain were bombarded with after a long day at work: 1. [Read More]
Free Coffee
Both of my blog readers might be interested in a free coffee sample from Dunkin’ Donuts. Nothing like a cuppa joe to make you more coherent around your kids!
Order up!
The other day I was eating breakfast with Will and Sydney. I was eating my usual cold cereal, while Sydney and Will were enjoying waffles (the frozen kind you toast, not homemade!) After we had been eating for a while and were almost done, Will looked at me and said, “Mom, I ordered another waffle.” [Read More]
An Apology to the Princesses

I do feel I owe an apology to the Disney Princesses. Once upon a time, before I had a daughter, the princesses annoyed me. [Read More]
Off to Disneyworld!
Tomorrow we leave for a trip to Disneyworld! We will eat and sleep all things Disney for 4 nights and 5 days. Stay tuned for tales of our adventures next week!

Happy Valentine’s Day! Or, as my son Will pronounces it, Happy Valentime’s Day! His first grade teacher recently sent home instructions about Valentine’s Day. Every kid gets a card, if you buy candy, read the labels for allergies, etc. BUT – the note also declared “Please have your child write out the Valentine’s. It means [Read More]

Both of my readers may notice something new upon visiting my blog. That’s right, I got a blog makeover! Many thanks to Krystyn at Krizzy’s Designs for helping me get my Blog on. She was great to work with and gave my blog a fun look (to match all the funny things I share!) Interested [Read More]
Fish Sticks, Schmish Sticks
I saw a commercial over the weekend that sent a message–loud and clear–that you are a bad mom if you serve a certain brand of fish sticks. It’s a commercial for Van de Kamp’s fish sticks. A little girl, maybe 3 or 4, is served fish sticks by her mother. The little girl notices somehow [Read More]
