I wrote this post on Saturday – at the time not at all sick myself, but just because I had the random idea for the post from my last several rounds of sickness and all of the complaining sick people on Twitter. Then, before I published it, guess what I came down with? The very […]
First Annual Mommy Scouts Awards
I wrote a post at the beginning of the year called Mommy Scouts. The concept has stuck with me throughout the year and has helped me laugh during moments I might not have normally been able to – reminding myself that it’s all worth it because I’m earning my merit badges. For a refresher, here […]
I’ll Fit Myself, ThankYouVeryMuch.
I’ve been seeing this term thrown around in a lot of the newspaper ads lately, not to mention the Southern Women’s Show… “Certified Bra Fitter”…or a different variety is “Certified Bra Specialist”. And it makes me ponder…how DOES one become a certified in bra fitting? I googled it to satiate my curiosity, but came up […]
Dear, Dear, Dear.
Dear Mister-Genius-Who-Created-The-Self-Cleaning-Oven: Do you think that you could apply your oh-so-amazing abilities to create other self-cleaning Appliances? Namely, a self-cleaning refrigerator? You know, where it could sense when food is past it’s prime (the premium models could even tell before it grew any green fuzz), empty it, put it into the dishwasher, and oh – […]
A Better Choice in Rearview Messages!
I might have mentioned once or twice how much I absolutely DESPISE writing on the butts of clothing. I mean – come on. Find a better place to write things! HOWEVER, the pandemic of butt literature just continues to grow. So, if you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em! And since there seems to be a […]
Carnivorous Creations
Chris has consistently sent me gorgeous flowers throughout our relationship. I have always greatly appreciated this, but have always been burdened with a good bit of guilt at each occurrence of said delivery, because there’s nothing comparably reciprocal to send to a guy. Guys don’t want flowers. Guys don’t want balloons. Guys don’t want candy. […]
Because You Care. Just a Little TOO Much.
On our long date Saturday of having all the time in the world to talk and laugh, Chris and I came up with something that is very “needed” in today’s market. You know those overly nosy/probing/into-everyone’s-personal-lives people? They might be at work, at church, a friend, or even a family member. They are the ones […]
Someone Please Add Some Extra Value to Extra Value Cards.
I am a Savingsaholic. I love coupons, discounts, saving up points to get special rewards, watching the sale papers, all of it. (Except grocery store coupons. I learned that I buy more products that I don’t normally use and forget to use the coupons for the products I DO use at the grocery store, thereby […]
Mommy Scouts
I think that we should have Mommy Scouts. You know, where we get to earn Merit Badges as we experience facets or overcome obstacles of Mommyhood. Because admit it – we’re all proud of what we’ve overcome in this crazy job, and we like wearing them like honors on our sleeves anyway, so we might […]
