It had been a loooooong time since I stopped by one of my favorite Monday Muse sites: Miss Aimee over in Artsyville. While there, I saw she had posted a new weekword: Flavor. I hear that word and I think of big international festivals with lots of food, music, dancing, and more food from different [...]

One of my most absolute favorite things to do is relax with a good book. I love to sit and read. Lounge and read. Inside, outside, in the car (not while driving, of course), at the park, the beach, (and thanks to my E-Reader, in line at the grocery store) – basically anywhere and everywhere, [...]

Putting aside all the major stuff like anything happening to my family, cancer, car accidents, tornadoes, and what not…my biggest fear in all the world is…are you ready? Wearing a swim suit. In public. I haven’t done it in nearly 10 years…2002 was probably the last time that much of my skin was exposed at [...]

I firmly believe that mothers are a child’s first teachers. Well, both parents are, but in many ways much of it falls in the lap of the mom (argue with me if you want, but I’m not trying to start a fight here on gender roles or anything). Anyways, up until January of this year, [...]

Eh? Yeah, that’s kind of what I thought when the husband and I were doing a blind search of possible lakefront vacation spots in the mid-west… Check out this beauty: Wow. What luxury!(Turns out this baby isn’t on Lake Michigan, but the Mississippi river instead.) For a little background info, Wildwood is that lake neighborhood [...]

I love my blog. I love ranting, blabbing about my day, sharing neat stuff I find, and just talking about whatever floats through my brain. I am never ever “not busy,” but lately I have been even more “not busy” than ever (did that makes sense?). So my blog isn’t even on the back burner [...]

Tomorrow I’m joining a group of friends to start a 12 week Biggest Loser contest…we did one the fall of 2008 and I won! It was a great way to get rid of all the weight I put on with Lil’ G. The problem is, I’m still carrying some extra pounds I gained when pregnant [...]

Miss A’s Christmas Wishlist is long and just keeps getting longer. No, there is no freakin’ way she will be getting everything on her list, not now at Christmas, nor at her birthday, nor maybe ever. Aside from the fact that we’d have no money left for college (or next month’s electric bill), some stuff [...]

You know that feeling you get when you first fall in love, and you have to tell everyone about so-and-so, you just can’t stop talking about so-and-so, you can’t wait to see so-and-so again? Well, I fell in love Saturday night. Don’t worry, the husband was with me…and no, things didn’t get kinky…(though the 2 [...]
