I am that mom. I am that mom at the sporting event that ends up sitting all by herself. The one that yells wildly and yes, even stomps her feet a time or two when there are calls from the ref that are so absurd, you wonder if he can truly see out of both of his eyeballs. I can’t help it. I am not proud of this behavior, mind you. Even as I write these words I am a little tight in the chest, because I am worried sick someone will read this and a light bulb will go off. Ding! THIS is HER! The woman at our game last night. Or last week. Or last year. At least I am remembered for something!

Freshen Up Your Hair Routine
I think we should, every once in a while, take a little more time for ourselves. Just a few extra swipes of mascara or trying a new way to wear your hair are a good way to enter the New Year and feel fresh for spring. When I feel like a look my best I am in a much better mood. -
Daddy Days
What did my husband do when I left him home alone with the girls? Did he worry about grocery shopping, naps, and laundry? No- he had fun. So right then and there, that’s what I made up my mind to do. Over the next few days we would do things a bit differently. We would have ourselves some good old-fashioned “Daddy Days”. -
Cupcake Wars
It all started at the fifth grade class Christmas party. I strolled into my daughter’s class with cupcakes in hand, and could almost hear the gasps when I retrieved them from a Target bag. They were adorned with Santa and Rudolph and cute little Christmas trees, I was proud of these! Heck, the icing didn’t even smudge the slightest bit on the drive over! As I sat them on the food table, I felt a little nudge… -
Pin Ups (and Downs)
I am trying super hard to be one of those Pinterest people. If you’re not familiar with Pinterest, it’s basically a virtual pinboard of stuff. Pictures of things you like. You find the pictures,or recipe or whatever, and you “pin” it (or an image representing “it”) on a “board” that you “create”. So I got the invitation to join a while back, but I have to be honest with you. I don’t really get it. I think I’m doing it wrong. -
A Closet Organizer for Him
My husbands closet has needed a makeover for some time. Our closets are in the bathroom, he has his own and I have my own. I love having our own closets but his was becoming a catch-all for all things that did not need to be in the closet. I created this system to help him get ready in the morning and have everything at his fingertips instead of walking around looking for things that were just all over the place. See how I did it. -
