While this may come as a shock to many of you (not!) Blaine and I have not been thrilled with what our corner of the world has to offer. We’ve been here for nearly four years, and for most of that have been looking to move elsewhere. Now, with a deadline and decision to move […]
Make up your mind already, Momma.
How awful is it that when Sterling hollered for the second time in 3 minutes from his bed that he needed to potty that I waited a few minutes, hoping he’d just go in the diaper? Really, why? And where is it written that with a diaper, he’ll stay dry all night, but without, wake […]
It was a really nice thought.
But when I get woke up, not once but twice, by Sterling somewhere in the wee hours because he needs to pee, I start to wish he wasn’t potty trained. Or that he’d just pee in the diaper he’s wearing. Nope, take him potty. Then feed Ruby, because he woke her up and she couldn’t […]
Tell me why…
Blaine decided to cross over to the dark side… Firefox, that is. He’s been using Opera, but we all know Firefox is the best. This created new problems – namely, I use Firefox. Don’t mess with my tabs! He figured out how to create different users, so we’re all set. Not so much. Firefox had […]
Sunny cems.

Potty-training, exploded intentions and misguiding monitors
Sterling had a great day yesterday as a newly-potty trained two year old. He had one accident – truly an accident, since he hollered during his nap for me and I’m apparently not in good enough shape to dash up the stairs quickly enough. I’ll take the blame for that one.Today, not so much. He […]
I’ll try to be brief. An introduction.
I’ve been pondering this whole open-blog thing for a while. I’ve posted on Multiply for some time, and Yahoo 360 before that, but those were only open to friends. How much of my daily life should be open for review? Is there anything I have to say that might be found worthwhile? With neither of […]
These things I’ve learned today…
Today I’ve learned… That unbreakable Corningware will break on ceramic tile. And, when these unbreakable plates break with mashed potatoes on them, it makes a massive mess. That dried granola on ceramic tile is hard to get off. That husbands do a great job of cleaning it up! I’ve learned that a spoonful of sour […]
