Hey peeps. It’s been like um…9 months since I got my haircut? And, quite frankly, the split ends are taking over - so, I have to do something. That, and I’d rather not end up with a huge tangle ball sitting on my head from the slightest breeze. I mean, a girl can only work [...]
Approximately a week ago (maybe two), Lorelei started showing signs of seasonal allergies (pollen, grass, etc.). I wasn’t too concerned as I have allergies as well, and so I can at least spot it and know what it is.
But, then…things changed. A few days ago, we both developed new symptoms. Maybe you remember me mentioning [...]
It’s so funny the lessons you learn if you just pay attention and stop to watch and listen every once in a while….
And, it can be quite amusing at times, at how those life lessons…or reminders…come.
Yesterday, Lorelei came to me, holding a book - wanting me to read it to her. So, I sat her [...]
It seems like once you have a little one, their “diaper bag” just keeps getting bigger and bigger - a large supply of bottles, formula, burp-cloths AND bibs, a change of clothes, baby medicines JUST IN CASE, a few extra toys to keep them occupied…and the list goes on and on…

I’m counting on all of you to keep me accountable on this one. And, I invite anyone else that would like to take this challenge upon themselves.
So, to get started I:
Made a list of [...]
Most of you who know me, know that my brain pretty much wakes up between 7 and 8 am and won’t shut off until somewhere between 10 pm and midnight. Occasionally, I can trick it into letting me have a nap or to shut down at 9 pm. But, that’s rarely. And, [...]
I figured I’d try my less-trash challenge again today. I’m kind of intrigued, if I do say so myself. And, I’m quite curious as to what the results would be should I do this for any longer than a day. So, I marched on. On cleaning day. Well, sort of.
Today, I trashed the following:

…Chasing Steven with the lawnmower.
Being the wonderful, kind, loving, pleasant, awesome, giving, great wife that I am, I offered to help my husband mow the yard tonight. I reasoned that I could ride the riding mower, and he could push mow…and together, we’d finish in no time. Him, not being a total idiot, [...]
