“Bad Parenting” Techniques That I Practice Daily: Part 1 started off as a 10 item list but because it was so stinking long, I broke it into two parts. You are graced today with Part 2. This one is sure to knock a few socks off. “Bad Parenting” Technique #6: No Doctor is (sometimes) the [...]
I have been suffering from paralyzing anxiety over perfection. Before we left for North Carolina when Kyle’s grandma died, we had an enormous argument about the state of the household. Or rather…the disorganization of the household and my lackluster performance as a housewife. At the time I was blogging daily, socializing my children, teaching my [...]
Here I go again. I’ll be whining this time so if you are not in the mood, don’t read. But maybe bookmark me for when you ARE in the mood. I know lots of military mamas and I feel for them. Their hubbies are away for months on end and they have to run households [...]
I am a firm believer in the fact that healthy relationships have healthy, active sex lives. With three kids, sometimes it’s not always easy to find the time, let alone the mojo to get the deed done. I literally have to force myself to be in the mood sometimes but I do it [...]
As the beginning of the school year creeps up on us again, I am reminded of the crappy experiences we had last year in our public school system. Styles was in 4th grade and there were fist fights in his classroom, on the playground, at gym, etc…. The children in his class were outright rude [...]

Days at the park or mall soft play were spent complaining about their horrible in-laws; the people who conceived, birthed, and raised their spouses. There were some pretty nasty [...]
Today is Father’s Day. I made a special brunch for my dad, grandfather, uncle, cousin, and some other family members. Kyle has to work today but thankfully he is closing so we got to spend the morning with him. He woke up early with me and helped me prepare the coffee for brunch, he cut [...]
It’s true. They seriously hate me because I wear make-up. I’m not talking about the shellac on your face, eyeliner, rouge, and mascara kind of make-up. No, I’m talking about the emotional make-up that has almost always made me up. I was one of the teenagers you hear about who has the perfect life, or [...]
I was put on “Pelvic Rest” for this pregnancy about 6 weeks ago. For those of you who don’t know what pelvic rest means, it means no fun after dark. No playing “hide the salami”, no dancing the horizontal mambo, no mid-afternoon “naps”, no more practicing for more babies (so what I’m already pregnant?), you [...]
