Friendships, Opinions and Social Media

by 9 Comments

It is so hard to voice political opinions when you are talking friendships. You want to respect one another. I have been very careful to not voice my opinion online. I was just over on my Facebook page and found so many people I respect and care about are complaining about the outcome of the […]

We Could all Use a Laugh Today

by 4 Comments

I rolled the dice yesterday knowing I live in a community of overachievers. I figured if I waited until the last minute to vote, all my responsible neighbors would be done already. I parked and walked right in.  Not one person ahead of me at 5:08. I outsmarted the smarties! I voted while talking to […]

Should Have Married a Dentist

by 3 Comments

I love iPhoto.  I tried repeatedly to erase a blemish on someone’s face before I realized my laptop screen has a little boy “finger goober” on it. Then I had that “oh crap” moment! You know, the moment you realize you just sprayed your laptop screen with your dogs breath spray instead of the screen cleaner. […]

It’s Just That Kind of Town on Halloween and Every Day

by Leave a Comment

“Please Use Honor System.  Put in Yellow Mailbox.” That’s right, honor system.  Just leave what you owe. It’s that kind of town. We live in a little town where when you stop by a pumpkin patch you see lovely pumpkins and gourds.  It’s nice to see people having faith in humanity. Suckers!!!  Good Lord I […]

Someone Please Hire Me

Will someone please hire me for all of my Halloween decorating awesomeness? When people come to my house and look at me like I am crazy I want to be able to say, “Oh that, that is just my job. I have to do it.” – Abbie Gale at allthatmakesyou.com

Halloween Is So Much Fun When Scaring My Children

by 5 Comments

Why is scaring my kids on Halloween so much fun? Am I a bad mom? The anticipation for them to come come and use the bathroom was too much! They all loved it, they said, even after one kid dropped to the floor in fear. Maybe I am a cool mom because I like to […]

Silly Saturday

by 1 Comment

I’m ordering Thai and locking my bedroom door tonight. Think they are trying to bring the rest of the body back that WAS attached to the hand. Dear boys, please don’t turn on the stove. Dear Insurance Agent, The fire would be self contained anyway as we followed all code requirements when having cabinets built […]

Amazing Birthdays and Amazing Story

by 7 Comments

Yesterday we celebrated our twins 13th birthday. They were very sick when I was pregnant with them. They had what is called “Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome” that only affects identical twins.  They shared a placenta and when their umbilical cords attached they attached too close together.  Feeder vessels grew and shunted blood from one […]

The Goonies

I need y’alls help. I’m catching crap because it was my idea to have a movie night in our neighborhood and play a movie on an outdoor projector screen. I said we needed to offer a “big kid” movie as we usually do PG movies. I need a consensus. Do you think “The Goonies” rocks? […]

Where I have been and skeletons keeping me company.

I have been a little lazy too, (see pic below.) My new skeleton came in the mail yesterday. […]
