Indefinate Hiatus
After careful consideration, I have decided to take a semi-permanent break from this blog. There are quite a few things that have been going on for about a month that I would love to bitch whine cry write about here, but the truth is, the people who have hurt/offended/annoyed me the most know about this [...]
Exactly how dumb ARE your kids?
(insert obligatory “forgive me, but I’ve been busy with the new website and please GO THERE and print off 3000 coupons from my sidebar so I can make $.14 andby the way, things have been pretty good around here, or at least, boring enough that I don’t want to blog about it, and the one thing [...]
Rules of the Road
Having left the workforce just over seven years ago and having spent all that time avoiding rush hour traffic on the highway that connects my outlying suburb to “the real world”, I think I forgot how annoying other drivers can be. Either that, or I just has a serious case of PMS and managed to [...]
I’m old
That’s what I’m feeling right now as I get ready to leave to go to my sister’s house for my nephew’s graduation party/excuse for the parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles & cousins to get together and drink until 3:00am. I remember the day he was born…racing to the hospital to hold my very first nephew. And [...]
Can I give my mother a medal, but not tell her?
After all these years, I certainly can’t start telling her NOW that she was a good parent! When I was a child, we belonged to HoityToityPool. Every day we would get in the car and be there by noon and stay all day, often ordering in dinner of pizza and staying until they kicked us [...]
Perhaps I was just looking for more blog fodder?
….because I know that this decision will be a source of unlimited pissed-offedness. We joined the YMCA today. Not exactly earth-shattering news, I know. Except that just two short years ago, I cancelled my membership and told the Director that she would be ice-skating in Hades before she got another penny from me. What can [...]
Someone grab me some cheese!
Caution: some serious self-pity & whining follows Something has to give, and I don’t know what it is…nor is there anything that I want to give up (aside from scrubbing toilets, but that isn’t really an option). I don’t know what has happened recently. My children are still wonderful and I love my husband….I just can’t figure out [...]
Wrinkles aren’t THAT bad, are they?
I just spent the last 30 minutes ironing a shirt and karate patches on the Princes uniforms and they both still look like crap. Thirty.Fucking.Minutes (although the first 10 minutes were spent trying to remember where I stashed the ironing board) I’ve mentioned before that I don’t iron. I hate it and so I purposely buy wrinkle-resistant shirts (the ones [...]
Friday Photos
It’s been a while since I posted a picture of The Queen and I have just one question for you moms of daughters. What the Hell am I supposed to do with her hair? Don’t get me wrong…I love the curls. But they are always in her eyes and trying to get her to keep [...]
So if you meet me, have some courtesy.
Have some sympathy and taste… I’ve had that song running through my head ever since I first told the story of JeepBitch and BMWBitch (and if you only know the Guns N’ Roses version, then you are either too young to be reading blogs or have horrible taste in music!) and I know that I promised [...]
