Misunderstood
Even though I know what my daughter meant in this poem, many mothers read this and stood aghast, which made it all the more funny to me.
I found it hilarious, a bit embarrassing, but damn funny none the less. I do take my children to feed the ducks often, and we endearingly refer to the ducks as “mates” as they couple [...]
Labor Day weekend, a gory end without option
To rub lemon juice into my wound, the weatherman has informed my glorious city that we are in for an abrupt change in weather. Abrupt meaning SNOW in the mountains. Yes, snow. SNOW in the mountains.
This awful forecast left me wishing I was being offered a choice. An option perhaps equally as awful, but still, an option to choose my own demise. Such as: would you [...]
Can’t breathe
With all this back to school business, along with dwindling summer days, the noose around my neck seems much more than a fragment of my imagination.
Make a lunch people, this post might be long. Long, random, and grammatically incorrect. . .
In between fretting about the germs at our elementary school, buying up all the 4 oz hand sanitizer Bath & Body [...]
Three flats and a Tasmanian Devil
Shopping with my son is always a circus because my Little Man is never content unless he can climb the walls and skydive off the scaffolding, or blow something up, or worse, eat a piece of regurgitated bubble gum off the floor.
With that said, it is no doubt I was pleased to find a stroller he loves to [...]
Random E, F,G and H
E) I love this photo of Sass, she is doing the happy happy joy joy dance.
F) Every time I see the Olympic male swimmers in their awesome synthetic shark skin full body swimsuits, I laugh as I remember all the boys on my high school swim team who suffered through wearing speedos.
G) When we are leaving the house, why does my [...]
Sunshine and a meteor shower makes me happy
I haven’t kept my love for summer a secret, nor have I kept my eyes from rolling at all the blubbering boo-hooers who whine and cry over the heat. It’s summer people, extend your arms and receive the energy and love from the sun. OMMMM, OOMMMMM.
Pardon my sun absorbing moment internet, I can’t help myself, I just love the sun!
What would [...]
Oh Claude
It has been fairly uneventful around here as far as Claude and his poop flinging goes. There haven’t been any mysterious notes hanging on trees or fences either. The reason things have been mellow is because Claude moved. Yep, he is gone. But not really. He decided to keep his house and rent it to a really nice guy with two [...]
Compelled to share
A very kind man lives in the house behind ours. His back fence runs along our garage and driveway. He is often hunkered down behind the chain-link-fence weeding or picking his beautiful raspberries. Although I have never had a lengthy conversation with him we have always been cordial and he has always been curious about what my children are up to. [...]
