our kate
I know I am fairly alone on this - I don't give a whoop about the Royals. Never have. Any lingering interest or marvel I may have had was sideswiped by Charles' declaration to Camilla that he 'desired to be her tampon'. Truth is, my motto is not to spend too much time being … [Read more...]
Creating a Pregnancy Community
My first pregnancy was spent feeling very lonely. I had great people surrounding me, many of whom were mothers, but no one else was going through what I was going through. They didn't remember (or know) if those pains shooting through my crotch were normal (they are, by the way), they … [Read more...]
Family Time
My family is in the process of a move. Many people have asked us why we are moving, especially now. Granted, it's not the most opportune time for a move (middle of winter, new baby, etc) and we absolutely love everything about the town and house we live in. We have great friends and a great … [Read more...]
Family
Last week I was in the UK visiting my "little" sister and her family. She had just had her second child in late December (2 weeks late!) and I was there to offer emotional support and just help her out. Since my mom died I feel this overwhelming need to be close to my family. My dad is a few blocks … [Read more...]
Traveling Circus

We were all going a little stir crazy. Seriously I have no idea how single parents do it, although I guess there aren't a … [Read more...]

piss me off-why make green ones?
Everyone knows no one eats the green ones. Why do they make them? I would rather have none left than a dozen ugly, yucky green ones staring back at me.I could be in the throws of PMS, I could be overtired and needing a sugar fix, I could be cranky, I could be needing a lift and STILL even if there … [Read more...]
Pregnancy Cravings
When I'm pregnant I crave. But not the "normal" stuff I thought I would. You know, I'm not sending my husband out at midnight for pickles and ice cream, insisting that it is the only thing that will make me happy. Nope. Instead, I crave things that are way weirder then any craving I've … [Read more...]
do you remember her name?
Last night at dinner my daughter said her guidance teacher asked all of them to ask their parents- "Do you remember the name of the sluts in high school ?" She fumbled a little with the word slut- making a point of saying the teacher said it was ok to use that word.I love … [Read more...]
