It's been such a hectic couple of weeks round here, to stay the least, I almost forgot I had a blog. Okay, not quite but there have been so many things I have wanted to write about, like the well-loved oleaginous Whirly Pop I threw out after six years of use while packing a few … Continue reading Lessons in moving with toddlers

Bye Bye Bellview
I better write this while I still have my mind. Part of it anyway. It's 8:45 p.m. and I foresee a late night of packing ahead. It's our last night in our house. From the moment I woke up this morning, I've been weepy about it. I'm not sure why, but I didn't expect it. … Continue reading Bye Bye Bellview
If I ever had a mojo, I think I’ve lost it
Groove, mojo—whatever you want to call it, I fear I’ve lost it. Perhaps forever, because I am not so sure I will be as lucky as Stella and get mine back.

Awards for Slackers?
Ahh, the world wide web…how I have missed you. I apologize for the long delay in getting this post up, but I have been without Internet since Sunday! Big bummer.

Time to start planning the party…

But as I was flipping through the channels this morning trying to find "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse" in our hotel room, … Continue reading Time to start planning the party…
Instantize me!
This morning I got in my freezing cold car and drove to Food Lion for the essentials. The bad thing about living in the middle of a small town is that the heater in my car never warms up, so I ride the whole ten minutes there and back hunched over and shivering with one … Continue reading Instantize me!

You put your right foot in…
How old is too old for footie-pajamas? This may surprise you, but I ask myself this question a lot. Currently, my boys are 21 months and 7 months, well within the range of appropriate footie-pajama wearing years. But on occasion the question arises in my mind and I wonder at what age I should stop … Continue reading You put your right foot in…
Snow falling on blogs
Snow Falling on Cedars. Remember that movie? Well, I never saw it, but this is snow falling on blogs! Like it? Actually, that's what it's been doing here in Pittsburgh the past several days so I suppose it's appropos. Lots of beautiful snow showers---though nothing more than a dusting has stuck around.
