Describe Parenthood Using Only Movie Titles
I invited friends to describe parenthood using only the titles of movies, and the results were hilarious.
Saying no to pot bellied pigs
I wonder if there was at one time a pot bellied pig problem. I’d love to hear that story.
Lee Museum of Warped Art and Hysterical Do-Dads: family wedding photos and do-dads
I am in possession of most of the old photographs and do-dads from our family history, and on occasion, I rummage through those items and take a stab at getting some of them scanned so we have a digital record that can be shared around the country. Most of the pictures I rummage through are multiple […]
Parenting Rite of Passage: How to scrub permanent marker from a baby face
I spent my daughter’s nap time pondering what I was going to do about my weekly photo post, when her chattering and giggles caught my attention. There’s nothing I love so much as the sound of her giggles.
Party like a rock star
I don’t enforce a silent nap time. In fact, around here, nap time is ‘learn how to make your own fun, and maybe rest a little bit, while Mommy tries to get her work done‘ time. So when the happy-fun “Woohoo!” sounds wafted from her bedroom, I just smirked and went back to work. She’s […]

I discovered my brain was probed by aliens. đ When chemo took my hair, my newly denuded scalp revealed more than just skin. It showed off […]
The Stuffed Bra and the Wandering Socks
One of the frustrations I’ve had to deal with because of this breast cancer is my lopsidedness. Getting dressed in the morning takes quite a bit more thought and planning than ever before. I wasn’t small breasted to start with, but thanks to my mastectomy I have a bouncy D-Cup that swings a little lower […]
This was bound to happen
Hopefully he’ll forgive me. Every time my husband shaves off his beard, he first shaves his facial hair into interesting and amusing shapes. What he keeps forgetting is that there is a down-side to being married to a blogger. There is a really good chance I’m going to ambush him with a camera and post […]
She’s got a hold on you
I knew it wouldn’t take long for her to wrap Daddy around her little fingers. I didn’t think it would be so literal. Baby Girl likes to grab the hair that grows at the base of Daddy’s throat. Of course when Daddy calls for Mommy to rescue him from Baby’s clutches, Mommy laughs and stops to take […]
