I just had a really strange reaction to something and my first thought was to take to the blog and share it. Every month, I get an update from Will's school with all the coming activites for the month.  They do 'theme weeks' and it's totally and completely adorable.  This week is the … [Read more...]

Relax...it ain't what you think it is - because I would assume that actually picking up is still easy! Nope - my beef today has to do with the brutal pick-ups arranged through Craigslist.  Don't misread me - this isn't a slam of Craigslist.  Love it.  Big fan!  I actually bought … [Read more...]

I started blogging about Will and I so I'd have a record to show him later about what we've been through.  I'm planning on saving them all.  A few of them, like today's, I'll likely hold on to as a bribe for when he's older.  Behave or else I'm posting this to your Facebook page … [Read more...]

I'm baaaaack.  I just took an amazing four day trip to NYC without Will.  Dropping him at daycare last Thursday morning was a challenge and many tears were shed - by me not him.  By the time I hit the airport I was ogling other people's kids and thanking god they weren't with me. The … [Read more...]

We're sort of getting caught up to where Will is now.  Last we left off, the boy had popped his way into my heart and into the lives of many who now adore him as much as I do.  I'd love to say that our journey to now was smooth sailing with a bit of your typical new mother bizz … [Read more...]

I leave for New York City on Thursday.  I'm psyched - a bundle of every emotion.  My plans?  I'm seeing Josh Ritter on Thursday night.  If you love the singer songwrite type, I highly suggest you check him out.  I'm going with an old friend - yes he's a guy and don't ask … [Read more...]

I have a Friday WTF in my head but it's a bit emotional and frankly, I feel like I'm pms'ing because I've eaten half a loaf of chocolate chip banana bread (after eating half the bag of chocolate chips last night while I was baking it) and want to murder a few of my co-workers.  SO, I'll save … [Read more...]

I think I last left my trip on single motherhood with a meltdown in Home Depot!  The next logical part to share with you is how the dude made his grand entrance.  I wrote about the experience at my now defunct personal blog - so I thought I'd share it with a few edits...apologies to … [Read more...]

Will had a playdate with some other boys on Saturday and one of the mom's is pregnant again.  She just found out it's a girl - and she wasn't thrilled but was getting used to the idea.  Her reasoning - being a girl is hard.  Plain and simple.  And I couldn't agree more.  It … [Read more...]

Okay - we're going to file this one straight to random life thoughts...because it is one - BUT - I'm tired.  I went out for a grownup dinner last night with a couple of friends, got to bed at 11:30 - the boy decided to join me at 12:30 - so my brain is somewhat mushy between the wine and the … [Read more...]
