Sunday, rainy Sunday
Seems we've.spent the whole weekend in the house. It's been raining. A lot. But sometimes it's kinda nice to have an excuse not to go anywhere. So my quote for today is... The happiest moments of my life have been... Continue reading

How to spend a Saturday
Sleep in. Stay in bed until at least 6:00 am. Make everyone breakfast before you get your coffee. You don't really need it, after all, you DID sleep in. Hop in the shower while everyone is eating. If their mouths... Continue reading

Five for Friday
1. Today I spent a sweet day with my littlest. He had no school and the two biggies did. So we snuck off all sneaky-like to the zoo. He's fascinated with animals right now, and gets much more excited about... Continue reading

I will now be freezing all of my bananas.
I normally don't post about food or recipes, I'm not a food blogger. But I am a food eater. And if you know me, you know that I have been a Weight Watchers member forever for about 3 years. So... Continue reading

On being present...(the Oprah post)
So, Oprah's done today. I watched the show this morning, coffee in hand. I had planned to watch it later from the DVR, but my curiosity got the best of me. It was a fine show. Relaxed, contemplative, calm. She... Continue reading

Ten on Tuesday, the "Where have you been?" edition
1. Really? Has it been that long since I have written a blog post? Really? 2. I have no excuses, I've thought about it often but just have been too distracted with life to post about it. 3. I'm blogging... Continue reading

Spring cleaning.
I just realized that my last post was two weeks ago, and it also had the word Spring in it. Except it's still cold. Today's weather, damp and grey and chilly. Whatever. I've been a lazy blogger. But it's not... Continue reading

Springing ahead.
Yes, the clock on the wall has changed, but the one in my brain has not. I'm trying trying trying to shake the sleepy but it's tough. On the upside, we have been seeing slightly (very slightly) warmer temperatures and... Continue reading

Come on, Spring!
Seriously. I don't know how much more I can take. It's gray, gloomy and cold. Not really snowing, thank God, but we're getting either flurries or rain. And not the pretty, Spring-like sprinkles that make the grass smell all pretty.... Continue reading

Thursday Thoughts...
Haven't been much of a blogger lately. Thoughts are swimming around in my head and I can't seem to get them to settle. The weather is killing me. I'm sick of my treadmill and want to go outside and walkwalkwalk... Continue reading

Accepting
Accepting that life doesn't always go the way we want. Things change from moment to moment, and we have to adapt. Accepting that my week, so nicely planned out on my Mickey Mouse calendar, is only a "rough draft," and... Continue reading

So, anyway...
That's what we say when we have nothing to say, right? When there's that lag in the conversation where nobody has anything to add? Nothing new here. Status quo. Still winter. Still cold and gray. Still doing my thing. No... Continue reading

So, here we are...
The beginning of the year is always a time for resolutions. We speak of new beginnings, fresh starts, clean slates. Erase the old, welcome the new. I'm guilty of it myself. Every year, for too many years, I finished off... Continue reading

Baby, it's freakin' freezing outside.
So, I'm back. And cold. Really cold. Seems one of the side effects of losing weight is losing my built-in insulation. I never used to be cold like this. I'm seriously considering wearing those long underwear things that people who... Continue reading

This week is gonna be the longest, and shortest week ever. If you've talked to me in the last 6 months, you know that my vacation is coming up this weekend. Yes, my Disney vacation. The one I long for... Continue reading

I am not a fitness blogger.
Sometimes I like to think I am. I mean, I spew on and on about how much I work out, and how I'm doing with my health quest. But truly, it's only a teeny tiny part of my life and... Continue reading

It's been a month.
A freakin' month. I knew it had been awhile. It felt like a long while, actually. But a month? I just happened to peek over here to see when my last post was and lo and behold... So what's up?... Continue reading

Neglectful Nellie
I've been neglectful. Of my blog, of other blogs. Of my plan. Not horrible, off the charts neglectful. I'm not buring myself in twinkies and ice cream. Just slacking. Yeah, that's it. I'm a slacker. I've been working out, although... Continue reading

Change of plans
Sigh. I know, it's been too long, little blog. But I've been oh. so. busy. Life got a little wacky when the chillies started back to school. My schedule's all funked up. I've had meetings at school, appointments and that... Continue reading

Thanks, ladies! I know, we think that with the kids out of the house for a few hours we'll get something done, but I end up spending almost as much time at their schools (three different ones this year)! *waiting for Christmas break*
Here we go...
Time to start a new school year. For two of my chillies, it means a whole new school. My big girl is starting middle school, 5th grade. New building, new teachers, new friends. I know she'll be fine, but she had a few night before first day jitters. Another big change for her (and me) is th...

The one where I was almost small.
So I went shopping with my girlie the other day, she likes to shop now. ('Cause I'm a "tween" now, mom. Tweens like to shop. HELPME) We went to Old Navy. They had jeans on sale, and the boylie needed... Continue reading

Dear blog,
I didn't forget about you. Really I didn't. There are thoughts swimming in my head, like little fishies. But the monkeys in my house have taken over my computer, along with my brain and energy and mini-van. Truth is, I... Continue reading

A million thank yous. Love and hugs.
Sometimes it's just hard.
This morning I had to take my boylie to the dentist. I can't think of any kid that actually likes going to the dentist, but for a kid on the autism spectrum it's a special kind of dislike. I prepped him as best I could. We talked about it, reminded him what happens. He has an awesome memory, he...
