Mom Shorts Monday
My aversion to modeling is obvious; Theo however, is quite the natural. Okay. So I’m pretty sure that at one time I made a full on declaration that I would never ever wear shorts EVER again. I was so adamant, I even got rid of all of my shorts, which was actually a service to…

The Fourth and Fifth of July.
Do you think Paul Revere was THIS cute? Highly doubtful. Don’t you just love the sound of fireworks exploding inches away from drunk peoples’ heads at 12:00am? I sure know I do. Explosions are the quintessential sounds of our independence, you know. I mean the lyric “rocket’s red glare” was written for such an occasion.…

It’s all about the reaction.
If there were an NBA draft for over-reactors, I would totally be the number one draft pick. The Heat would fight over me, the Lakers would want me, and everyone from Ohio would hate me because I would choose any other team but the CavS, Seriously, I am that good at over-reacting. Luckily since being…

The good, The bad, and the bathing suit from hell.
Hot days are perfect for frolicking in the sprinkler, and drinking from the garden hose…at least, that’s what we used to do back in the day, but these kids nowadays, these darn kids, have newfangled inventions like kindle fires and splash parks.

How to relax when you are basically standing in someone else’s personal space.
literally 2 minutes after this photo was taken, church let out and every inch of this space was covered in humans. Ahhhh the pool. When Ohio gets swampy, everyone runs (or swiftly walks) to the nearest body of water. And since the Ohio river is only good for swimming if you are wearing cement shoes,…

10 things that are annoying me in my life right this minute.
It would be my life dream to read a David Letterman top ten list. But until David goes searching the Midwest for a minivan driving mom for a casting call, I’ll have to settle for my own top 10, on my own dinky blog. Because if DIY network has taught me anything it’s that you…

I haven’t blogged in forever.
Seriously. I feel like it’s been forever and a day since my fingers have tap tapped this keyboard. This writer’s block stuff is legit. L-E-G-I-T. I tell you. Oh well. I’m sure the drought will end soon and I will flood you with the crazy stories of my existence, like how I had an all…

Happy Birthday Hubster.
Today is a special day. It’s officially my hubster’s 30th birthday, and seeing as how he hit this milestone first, I have to rub it in. I mean, what kind of wife would I be if I didn’t make old man jokes while pointing out our obvious age differences? Especially the generational differences… like how…

My week long social experiment.
I’m sure you remember my last post regarding birthdays, excitement and witty remarks about my unrealistic goals that I set for myself every year. To keep with the theme of unrealistic expectations, I tried an experiment…one week without blogging, and minimal postings on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.I didn’t tell anyone just in case I totally…

Birthdays Smirthdays.
Today is the day that I spend reveling in Facebook notifications and attempting to identify the persons singing various renditions of Happy Birthday on my voice mail. It’s my birthday ya’ll. Which is usually a time to celebrate, and I am, but not outwardly. Awe hells naw. On the inside I’m all like those bratty…
