Oh, I wish I had a secret for you to be productive when there are things on my mind that seem to paralyze me. Thoughts and prayers headed your way on the surgery. As for the rest, it will happen when it needs to and when it's supposed to. xo
36 China Markers
How do you get things done? I’m asking. Waiting for my skin cancer surgeries has me utterly paralyzed. The sitter still comes three days a week, which may be the only reason I’m moving at all. There were a couple of days that wholly consisted of my harrumphing in bed while she took care of the k...
I'm with you on a smaller scale -- I signed up for weight watchers online today. Damn peri-menopause. :(
My Farewell Tour
Last week, I confessed that I had re-upped at the weight loss clinic that helped me shed 56 pounds three years ago. I did it with their help and a combination of exercise and a low-fat, low-carb, extremely low-cal diet (600-800 calories per day). One of the clinic's selling points is that it is ...
I'm so sorry I'm behind the 8-ball! Congratulations!!
Introducing Cooper
It took 6 days, 3 trips to the hospital, 3 failed inductions, and a foley ball to get my labor started. When the doctors finally decided to break my water, my second son decided to make his way into this world in less than six hours. A few big pushes and my nine-pounder was born with bruised...
So glad you enjoy! :)

They rock! As do you!
I Have a Namesake! Monticello Shoes Rocks.
You all know about my obsession with shoes. Do I really need to say more about that? A few years ago I wrote about an adorable shoe store I stumbled upon in downtown Norfolk called Monticello Shoes. They have their own designs, custom made in Italy and the shoes are absolutely gorgeous. And...

I hear you. Mr. PunditMom recently told me I'd turned into a misanthrope because I get so cranky at some things these days. :(
Still Cranky After All These Years
“You’ve gotten crankier over the years,” my husband observed. This is true, and never more so than when we arrive at the airport to check in for a flight. I try to stay calm by reminding myself that long lines are the nature of the beast. You have to just ride them out. But I find it hard not to...

Don't get me wrong -- I'm all for PunditGirl taking responsibility! I just wonder how much good these types of lists do in our age of uber-parenting?
If This is Her "Golden Year," Should I Be Rocking the Boat?
After attending a recent "tweens" parenting class at my fourth-grader's school, I came away with some serious doubts about my abilities in that department, as well as questions about how we as a society parent today. Not that I think I'm the perfect mother -- not by any stretch! But I left with...
Fortunately, I do take these things with a big grain of salt, but I know a lot of parents there were pretty shaken! And the good news is, PunditGirl has lots of other good skills! :)

I Hate Tuesdays, the New York Times and Other Rants
Whose big idea was it to let LAUSD kids out at 1:35 on Tuesdays? Don't they know how inconvenient it is - for ME? After all, the minute my daughter comes home from school, I get to start neglecting her so I can work on my brand. For those of you who are not clued in to the mom blogging communit...
Debbie, Can you send me your E-mail address for the E-book we were discussing? Thanks!
Is it Time to Stop Supporting My Alma Mater?
I'm angry with my college alma mater. Just when I was beginning to feel that the regional university was gaining national recognition, the president resigned. The president of less than four years was the university's first female. It appears there were differences with the chancellor and the ...

Wake Me Up When Adolescence is Over
"She's such a good baby," my friends and colleagues ooh-ed when my daughter was an infant. She seemed to know when my maternity leave was about to end, because at just that point she began sleeping through the night.She didn't cry much, and when she did, it was kind of cute. And as soon as she...
Didn't mean to make anyone cry -- but it is getting me pretty emotional, too!
A Second Trip of a Lifetime
It's hard to get my head around the fact that after planning for almost a year, my family and I are just weeks away from our second trip of a lifetime. The first, of course, was when we traveled to China in 2001 to bring home our daughter. Now, in just a matter of weeks, we'll be returning f...
