I don’t know why I ever bother making New Years resolutions, right in the thick of the darkest and bleakest days of winter, but I do. My resolutions are invariably of the same genre: get organized with a sprinkling of getting in shape. I always give them a good college try too. But you must [...]

search, ponder, and blog

I’ve been hearing complaints that I don’t blog often enough anymore. Ninety-four percent of those complaints are coming from my own mouth to any available whine-listener. But for you two gripers who are not me (you know who you are) I just want to say, I love you too. I still go though my days [...]
Yam of Life

What have I been up to for the past week now that I don’t have to blog anymore? Sleep. I’m trying to keep diurnal hours now, and regular sleep has added a modicum of sanity to my daily, uh, day. Also, I’ve been doing other sensational mother stuff that would be too fabulous to blog [...]
Chef Ood

As the holidays approach, I think we all get in the mood for some festive recipes. Luckily, Chef Ood has been in the kitchen whipping up something totally new and exciting.
No, it is not that cold in our house. Remember Ood is also a fashion expert; everybody will be wearing fleece hats indoors next season. [...]
Mud Pi

Here’s a photo of Pi from five years ago, shortly after we moved here.
Pi submerged herself in the bog that was our yard before we had grass. I still am not sure what kind of mother allows this sort of behavior, or worse, what sort of mother has no regrets when looking at this photo.
cat wash

Partly because the Baby is now mobile, partly because it’s winter so he’ll be indoors most of the time, and partly for revenge over the vomit, I finally “winterized” the Fuzz.
First the worm pill. Open wide! He loves this part.
Next the pedicure. He’s just grateful I’m not poking a worm pill down his throat anymore.
And [...]

Watch out, Fuzz, you are on my list. I already have your worm pills, and a bottle of lavender baby shampoo. Your time is coming, there is no escape. MWA HA HA HA HA!

I need to find my mop

Hey there, you. Yup, I’m talking right to you this time. I just wanted to say thank you, you know, for coming around and making it so my blog has a reader. You are my favorite person.
Also, I was just wondering, did you see that new-ish widget over here on the left that says [...]
saved by the corn maze
Posted in family, kid fun, scatterbrain on November 2, 2007 | 3 Comments »
I woke up in a cold sweat yesterday morning realizing that the school kids would be doing some sort of fun Halloweeny stuff in school, and I hadn’t planned anything at all for home schooling Tood. Dangit! But down the road this historical farm had a corn maze so we quick flew over there [...]

I have tonsillitis. Yes, I’m sick! I’m too sick to be effective, but not sick enough to warrant an entire day in bed, which I believe would require hospitalization. My fever from all night finally broke after a long sleep-in, so I figured I was well enough to go to church. (Note the lack of [...]
