More Miraculous Than Snow In Arizona!
I? Am awesome. I am also just getting finished washing egg drippings off my fingers, wiping flour off my face, and will probably still be finding chocolate spatters in odd, random places in my kitchen for days. But I'm still awesome.I have made no se...
Grace Is Not An Adjective Applied To Me
I used to be much more of a girly-girl. Really. You can ask anyone I went to high school with, and they'll tell you that I spent a ridiculous amount of time worrying about what my hair, nails, clothes, make-up, etc. looked like. I was (mostly) gracef...
Things I Won\'t Post On Facebook Where Anyone Can Find Me
Since every potential employer, neighbor, in-law and parent of your children's friends does an Internet search for you before they'll even think about thinking about talking to you these days, there are many things that it might not be wise to post a...
An Exception To The Terrible Two's
We've reached Toddlerdom! Well, my blog has at any rate.What an amazing two years it's been, too! I've made new friends (even some that live in the same state as I do; and I promise we will actually meet in person one of these days!) and I've convin...
Lessons Learned On A Road Trip
*I posted this on Facebook recently, but wanted to share it here, too!*When taking a road trip (which, for today, is defined as any trip taken in a motor vehicle that is over 150 miles away; with the only en route scenery being cacti and circling haw...
Office Briefs
For the first time in oh... ever, I think.... I work in an office with quite a few other women. Every other office I've ever been in has been with one or two other women and several men. This is definitely different. The politics and dynamics are so...
Who Makes The Rules Around Here?
Everyone reach down and place your hand palm down on your floor. (I'll wait) Does it feel cool to the touch? Cold, even? Because I think Hell might have frozen over.I stayed home sick from the ball park tonight. (In the interest of complete hones...
Sunburns and Sacrifices
If further proof is needed concerning what a bonehead I am when it comes to the sun, you should ask for pictures of the sunburn I got Saturday at Opening Day for the Little League. My arms, right up to and including my shoulders (because, as a board...
The Sleepover Bra
If you are the mother to a male child, and if you are a mother who has fought a valiant battle with gravity only to realize that you are losing much faster than you dreamed you would, you absolutely understand the need for the sleepover bra. If, on...
Missed It By THAT Much......
Roughly six years or so ago, Coach and I made the decision (aided somewhat by some medical opinions we valued, and by the fact that my body was very adamantly and aggressively recommending a particular course of action) to ensure that we could have n...

"There You Are!"
I heard those three beautiful words tonight. They were followed by Now you're YOU again!Can I just tell you that I absolutely ADORE the woman who does my hair? This was the last time I actually felt like someone worth looking in the mirror at. It's b...
So Am I On The Naughty List For This?
Why is it that gift giving in the office is always a hugely political event? When did it stop being about giving something just to give it, because you wanted to and you could; and start being about everyone needing to contribute a certain amount fo...
Just When You Thought You Were Safe....
Picking up where we left off here, here and here, I'm feeling generous. Mostly. I thought I'd torture.... um, I mean entertain you with more randomness about me. However, since I can never seem to get past ten useless bits of trivia, we'll see just h...
If Geoffery Could See Me Now
"I don't wanna grow up...." I remember one specific night when I was about 15 or so, and my friends and I were at some parade or other, when who should walk right by? That damn 15 foot giraffe. I look at my teenager some days and wonder how I ever ...
