Oh, hello there!

I am not even going to try to make excuses for my absence, because at the end of the day, it doesn’t matter as to why I didn’t blog. I just didn’t. Life decided that it needed to kick into overdrive, some things happened, and I had to take a step back from everything that [...]

First Comes Halloween

This is by far, my most favorite time of year. From now all the way until the end of the year. As a side note, do you realize we are 8 weeks away from the end of 2011? Fall/Winter has always been my favorite time of year. The sights, the sounds. All of it just [...]

Because I am a mom FIRST

It’s late here. I am exhausted. But, yet still up. I realize that I haven’t blogged in a while. I must have typed out a million posts about why I haven’t been here only to delete them. Because, I am a mom first. This space has always been where I wear my “mom” hat. And [...]

The power of the school bus

“Mommy, I want to ride the bus ‘morrow”. No sooner had Aidan walked out of school then he said those words. My heart froze. The bus? Really? I shook my head “I don’t think it’s a good idea.” But, he persisted the entire walk home. So, I told him to “talk to daddy” that night. [...]

Joining the world of coupons

I admit, I don’t coupon. When I can actually remember to clip coupons, I can never remember to take them with me to the store. And that kind of defeats the idea of couponing. Well, I need to trim down my household budget a little bit. I have looked at every angle of my budget [...]

Confession is good for the soul,

Confession is good for the soul, right? Well, I hope so, because I am about to put it all out there. Today, I counted down the time until bedtime. Noah was in rare form and into everything. Please don’t tell me it’s normal two year old behavior, because I am convinced that someone replaced my child

Back in The Saddle Again

Writing has always been my therapy. Even before I became a successful freelance writer and an upcoming author (Book release is slated for November at this point.) Which is why I started my blogs. Yep, that’s blogs with an “S”. Somewhere along the way, though, I kinda stepped back from writing. I kep

Wait, What’s that? I am a blogger you say?

Here’s the thing about blogs…you have to remember to update them. And, ask anyone who knows me, my memory sucks. I have had thie blog for a while now. And, until the last 6 months or so, I was updating often. Then, something happened. Life shifted. And this blog kinda got lost in the shuffle. [...]
