The always witty Clemntine over at What’s up, Buttercup? discovered this meme at Chili’s place.  And I just can’t WAIT to play. INSTRUCTIONS:1. Put your music player on shuffle.2. Press forward for each question.3. Use the song title as the answer to the question even if it doesn’t make sense. NO CHEATING! How do you [...]

My mom sent me this conversation via email.  I had to share: C running into the house from outside:  Grammie, Daddy has an ice cream sandwich and I want one, but Daddy said not now. Grammie:  C, Daddy is the boss.  If Daddy said not now, then you have to wait. C:  But it’s not [...]

I won!  I won!  I won!  I won!  I won!  I won!  I WON!! *Doing the happy dance around the room.*  (Which, as my lovely compatriots from our recent weekend getaway can attest, is not a pretty sight, sorry to say.) Thanks Steph!  Thanks R at Cheeky Jewelry!  (Love your name, by the way.) Now, [...]

I have a confession to make.  I do not enjoy reading aloud to my children.  There.  I admitted it.  Shocking, I know.  I mean, it’s one of the least maternal things I could possibly say, right up there with saying that I smoke in the car with my kids or something.  (Which, of course, I [...]

It seems like EVERYWHERE I look in bloggityville, someone is posting some link love.  So I’m not left out, here’s mine!  (Actually, I started this post this morning before I saw anyone else’s linky posts.  We must all have ESP or something.) First, a couple of blogs I’ve discovered recently that you might enjoy are: [...]

Good Friday morning!  It gonna be a gorgeous holiday weekend here in Philly!  And the best part is that we have ABSOLUTELY. NO. PLANS.  Typically that would be a sure recipe for boredom (I like to be busy).  But after being away from my family for five days and then playing catch-up all week, I [...]

Studio 60 is back! That’s all.
