Edited to add: April Fools! Purex set me up with one very funny joke. I can’t see all of your faces, but if they were anything like my husband’s when I told him about Purex Glitter – I wish I could have been there! Purex will stick to glitter-free laundry detergent. Guess what Purex has […]
The story of us. Part 1.
When Blaine and I got married, we planned to wait for a few years before we began having children. I was 18, he was 24, and we lived in New Jersey, rented his grandmother’s house, and both worked. In an area where two incomes were nearly mandatory for survival. Rent there was twice, and sometimes […]
*Sigh.
The perils to feeding leftover garlic chicken pasta to toddlers at lunchtime. Man, I wish Brady (the dog) liked pasta.

If you give a mouse a cookie…
A good closet cleanout always produces a pile of castoffs. A pile of castoffs requires a bit of creativity. Creativity creates a good project. One project requires another. And another. And another. And another. And pretty soon, that pile of castoffs, combined with raiding Grandma’s for unworn T-shirts, and you find yourself with four little […]
Dial Kids: Review and Giveaway
Dial sent me a bottle of Dial Kids Body + Hair wash to try out. Meant for children ages 2-5 (I have a few in that range!) it’s peachy scent and tear free qualities have my kids lined up and smelling clean. It’s artificial dye free without any added parabens. The tear free aspect had […]
There. Fixed.
I posted this on my Facebook page last Thursday: Sterling sat at the supper table tonight with his glasses on the table beside him, squinting at the sun in his eyes. Ruby told him to put his glasses back on – maybe they’ll work like sunglasses. His reply: "No, Ruby. Those make me see BETTER. […]
I am dumber than I thought.
My dad called last week and said he had a blog topic for me. He suggested I search for an 8th grade test from the 1800’s and see if I could pass it. I think he was just trying to humble me. I found a test here and the answers here. While the English section […]
I can’t seem to get anything done around here.
This morning as I finished up in the bathroom after my shower, I noticed the bathroom sink and mirror needed attention. I set out to get the rag to clean the mirror. I got sidetracked. The rag hangs on the side of the fridge. The fridge is next to the laundry room. I started a […]
