Major Oops

So – I managed to completely forget about NaBloPoMo this weekend. That’s impressive. Does this mean I have failed?
In other news, we have friends coming over for Monday Night Football. This is big news – since we don’t allow people into our cave-like existence.
Still other news… I am matron of honor in a wedding in [...]

Welcome to Friday

YAY! I cannot tell you how happy I am that it’s Friday!
Beyond that – I’ve got nothing to say.
I’m quite busy with client work, the week was all funky with a different schedule for the kids, and so I’m just done.
I might be having a friend over for dinner tonight, so I’m excited about that.
Tomorrow [...]

Daily Log

Boring title. Boring entry. I don’t have time to write today (really write.) I have a bunch of client work, errands, two school conferences, and a cardiologist appointment, not to mention kid pickups, homework, and feeding them lunch and dinner. And housework.
I really dislike school half days.
I’m doing NaBloPoMo, are you?

Can you stop kicking me?

I must get this recorded for posterity. This morning, Poe and I were having our first coffee, and he was telling me about his dream. It was a long convoluted story, as most dreams are. How he ended it: “James Earl Jones was our neighbor; he was a guru spy.” How can I not note [...]

How to Know When They’re No Longer Babies

Kids grow up by increments. Little by little. But I think, now that I’ve been through two, I know when they’re well and truly no longer babies. It’s not walking and being a “toddler.” It’s not pre-school. It’s not that all imporant Big Boy 5. Not even the start of kindergarten.
It’s when they’ve lost both [...]

The Juggle

The carpet installers are hours – yes HOURS – late.
I’m juggling three clients.
I got a call from school that Joseph is refusing his lunch.
I have to finish the three clients’ work for the day, pick up the kids, supervise the installation, and help move all our living room furniture back into the house.
Tick tock… Tick [...]

Really?

It’s day one of NaBloPoMo, and I nearly screwed the pooch. But – in under the wire at 10:40ish pm. Phew.
Not that I have anything to say. My back is still screwy. Add to that we moved all the living room furniture out to get carpet in tomorrow. Add to that, we’ll have to move [...]

Friday Wound Check

There’s no real reason for today’s title. Except that I need to take Logan to the ER today for a wound check. I like how it sounds – like he’s been through a war or something. Anyway, I’ll be doing that today after school.
I also have a meeting to Discuss Things with Joseph’s teacher/counselor/Special Ed [...]

Only Us

You know… People think I’m exagerrating when I say weird crap happens to us. I’m not.
Like how every time my parents go out of town, something happens. Or anytime I want a vacation, something happens. It’s true.
So, let’s see. This week – all I wanted is a vacation, before I started concentrating on my home, [...]

Hating this

Again – not much to say except that I’m sick. My head cold has traveled, and now I have a chest cold. I sound like a freakin’ barking seal. To top things off, if things get much worse, I’m going to have to wear depends panty liners. No, I just wish I were kidding. I [...]
