Happy Birthday, Mom!
My poor mother. She had the worst birthday party in the history of the world, today. I think only a death or major medical emergency could have made it worse.
And the fault? Lies with crazy granny, of course.
We wanted to have the party at my mom’s favorite pizza place, but my grandma [...]

I’m all packed, except for morning things. Yikes! You should feel how heavy my diaper bag is. I am going to need a wheelchair to haul myself, Erik and The Bag around. I think it weighs more than Erik. I’ve got the new DVD player in it, along with a couple [...]

I forgot about making my expectations match reality, which meant we had a super crappy day over here in G’Town. The PMS had a large part in it too. As well as the constant barrage of “no no no no no no.” The boy is getting really good at pronouncing that word. [...]

Happy Talk Like a Pirate Day!
This is as close to a pirate ship as I can get. Can you tell it is a play ship? No? Just use your imagination. It’s the good ship Feathersword, being captained by Captain Crazy Smiley Face. The girls are clearly looking at a shark [...]

I am about to explode with frustration. I am trying to get my site moved to the new server. The first step is the simplest. I just have to go into the domain registration site, type in a line and hit enter. BUT THERE IS NO PLACE TO ENTER THE INFO!!!! [...]

As I’m sure everyone reading this knows by now, author James Rigney aka Robert Jordan passed away yesterday. I haven’t even read the last couple of books and became disenchanted with the series several years ago, but it’s still a sad day in book world. Those books changed my life. Without those [...]

We had a crazy-fun weekend around these parts, but it’s left me exhausted! We headed over to Tora’s on Friday night and spent a really fun evening watching Erik jump, quack and run. Who needs TV when you have a toddler? Tora is a great cook and served up an excellent meal [...]

I just put the final stitches in the quilting of my mom’s wall hanging. Let’s all give a cheer! I don’t really want to post a picture because you will all realize just how badly I suck and then you’ll never want to be my friend again. Ahem. Or you’ll just realize [...]

I just took a codeine three minutes ago so I don’t think this post will devolve into typoed non-sense, but maybe it will. Oh, the excitement! Will your blogger be a druggie or not? Wait and see!
Today was the most beautiful day of the year, so we headed out to a playgroup [...]

Erik’s new favorite word and activity is “tower.” He is not satisfied with his building blocks. Instead, he has to get into the media drawer and use all my DVD sets. I have to admit they make a rather impressive tower, much more so than his little wooden blocks.

Of course they had [...]
