House Not-So-Beautiful
Remember when I posted a braggy little piece about my lovely new living room rug? This is what I would like for you to think that my house looks like. Unfortunately, it only looked like that for the three seconds it took for me to snap that photo. Then… THE KIDS CAME HOME. First thisContinue reading “House Not-So-Beautiful”
Who put out a hit on Ducky?
I saw this as I was about to get into my car to drive the kids to school. The other side of the tire is against a curb, so the only way the car can go is right over this poor little yellow guy. Wow. Ducky has really made someone angry.
Spaghetti Squash in the Crockpot
I’ve been seeing this on pinterest and wondered if it would really work: To be honest, it looks bogus. Just put the whole thing in the crockpot with some water for a couple of hours? That’s it?

I went out to lunch with a friend recently. Unfortunately, the twins were out of school, so I had to drag them along.

So here’s a few sample comments and replies: Them: Just break up? CanContinue reading “I’ll take entertainment wherever I can”
I’m not crazy. It just appears that way.
I was walking into the convenience store here on post for a couple of things and I saw a centipede on the ground in the parking lot. I’ve mentioned the centipedes in Hawaii before. They are PURE EVIL. I hate them. These bugs lie there looking completely disgusting with their nasty little millions of legsContinue reading “I’m not crazy. It just appears that way.”
Kids are insulting each other on my driveway
I found this lovely message written in my driveway the other day. My question is, which of these kids is ACTUALLY stinky poop? And does decorating the insult with a heart make calling someone “stinky poop” more palatable?
Hair Tips from Pinterest
I’m test-driving some pinterest hair tips for the benefit of you, my reader. And also to try to make my hair look better. (original pin from easy loop of hair) This actually was really easy to do. Here’s how it looked in my hair: Not bad, right? Okay, the next one was a little moreContinue reading “Hair Tips from Pinterest”
The Vest
I saw this sign at the military hospital. I want a vest like this. It seems like the perfect idea for a mom. Just tell the kids, When I’m wearing the vest, YOU CAN’T BOTHER ME.
