the "b" in masgb...
When I was pregnant with our youngest child, Gary and I didn't find out whether the baby was going to be a girl or a boy. I'm pretty sure that became the trend after he was born. Speaking of which, does it bug anyone else out there when people say... Continue reading

Oh, and, btw...I think you absolutely should get an award at the concert! ;)
10 great things about Monday (besides trash day) and this week
1.) I will basking in the glory of a great weekend. Cousin Reg came over Saturday night and we chilled. Ian came too. Seriously, is their anything better than two women hanging out in the kitchen, dancing and singing to Asher Roth's "I Love College" ? and staying up all night? I mean, does it re...
they're real and they're spectacular...

me as a morning person...
So far my day isn't going very well. It started off great. I sprang out of bed at 6:20, opened the blinds to let the sun shine into my bedroom, and off I went to Starbucks to get Gary his venti bold obsession. Ah. My good-wife deed for the day.... Continue reading

still waiting for the birds and the bees...
According to Mom, my brother and I should have each had two children. The first one being a boy, and the second a girl. After all, that is the way she did it. Why would anyone want more than two children if you do it the right way and have... Continue reading

the "g" in masgb...
Gabrielle got a detention yesterday from one of her teachers for - wait for it - talking in class. Okay, so maybe, I should take full responsibility for the following reasons: #1. She is my daughter and we all know that excessive chatting is probably inherited from my side of... Continue reading

sitting on my hands...
Recently, Gary bet me that I couldn't tell a complete story if I was sitting on my hands. What? Do I really flail my arms uncontrollably and make a spectacle of myself when telling one of my never-ending stories? Okay, well maybe. I concede. Hey, he's the one who married... Continue reading

reading glasses...
Perfect vision. I have prided myself by saying, "I have 20/20!" And then BOOM! I turned 43 and...shit...overnight, I needed reading glasses to find my reading glasses. I've tried to compensate over the years. Now, sometimes I can actually find them because I use them as a hair accessory...kinda like... Continue reading

my friend james...
Often our Sunday morning ritual is to go to Starbucks. Gary gets his bold fix and I grab a fountain soda from Wawa on the way. We sit in Starbucks. Gary reads the newspaper and I hook up to the internet and try to return e-mails, although I get very... Continue reading

LOL! I'm feelin your pain girl. I'd be happy to look good in a one piece suit. I know what you mean...it feels great when someone says...you look great...why can't they just stop there? Do they have to add the five kids thing? Relating with you totally!
Heading to Kelly Drive again today with hubby and bikes. We'll see how it goes. ;)
Enjoy your day!
Today is the day
One of my dreams for this summer was to wear a bikini. It was a goal to firm up enough so that I could actually look good in one that's why I bought the mustang but to date, I have rode it twice. I knew that was a bad idea from the get go. I'm pretty sure I got more exercise putting it together...

Ha! Love, love, love it! You are too funny. I especially love your first picture being that of the liquor store. Were you heading in there to get your weekly wine supply? I can see it now. Strolling along with your iPod on, camera in-one hand, and a bag with clinking bottles in the other. LOL!
Thanks for the shout-out! Love reading your blog and following my fellow five kid mother!
Cheers my friend! :)
Ode to my new friend, Cocobunga!
I don't know why but I seem strangely drawn to a gal I don't even know. I have been following her blog and she is quite witty and a mother to 5 kids, too. It just makes me smile when I read her stuff. I have wondered if she cracks herself up while writing as I do. I bet she does. I got a ton...

Do mothers ever stop worrying about their children? I think not. Alex: I'm growing a beard. Me: Really...so fun...do you have any pics? Alex: Umm, yeah, you can see it a little bit in my new facebook photo. So, off I went to sign into facebook to see the photo.... Continue reading
