As Tiara’s Mom there are a few things I stopped hoping for years ago. One, that she would learn to write her name, and two, she would some day be potty trained. She is the most stubborn person in the world, which is why she is still alive, but she refuses to even get near…

Apparently I’ve gotten lazy?
According to my eldest daughter, all I have done for the past few days is look at pictures on the computer. Hmmm, gotta love kids/adult kids and their opinions of you. As you all know Trinity has been away at camp. The camp posts pictures of the children throughout the day so you can see…
My hair color journey: almost back to blonde!
So on top of everything else that happened last week, I had my hair colored again. I really wanted it blonde before our family portrait so I went to see my sponsor and favorite colorist Tina Scoville Salvucci at the Color Boutique. She decided to pack my head full of foils with two different shades…
It happened, we have accepted an offer!
As you all know I have been crazy for the past two weeks. Worrying, WORKING ON THE HOUSE, and totally stressing myself out about selling our house. Well, our prayers have been answered. We have accepted a great offer. Out of respect for all the parties involved I am not at liberty to disclose…
It’s official, I have gone insane!
I am writing this on Thursday night after several glasses of wine. I was going to skip my post again, but I am about to murder my entire family so instead of appearing on the front page of the paper tomorrow I decided I better write a post and get my therapy. Today I woke…
Eating sugar again!
Ok, I have to admit the stress has gotten to me. I have driven through Chick-fil-A the past two days solely for chocolate chip cookies. No chicken on my menu! I think I made it almost 4 weeks without any sweets or gluten but I have been dying for cookies. I got so desperate…
Does your bed have a frame?
I am sure almost 100% of my readers sleep on a bed which has a frame, but Lou, Tiara and I don’t. The reason why? About 4 years ago Tiara was having tons of tonic clonic and drop seizures. She woke up many mornings on the floor and after her teeth kept chipping off we…
Feeling panicky
SATURDAY 6:30am It is Saturday morning and I just woke up. I have a list a mile long of potential “to -do” items that would make my house even cleaner before it hits the MLS on Monday. My whole body aches, especially my hands and feet. I am exhausted and stressed and keep wondering if…
And now the dryer broke!
Last night I started on my piles of laundry that I had been ignoring during my home improvement mania, when I discovered the clothes weren’t drying all the way. Actually not at all.. Hmmmm. I was to tired to deal with it last night so I decided to ignore the problem until the morning. This…
Our house is for sale!
So I have been talking off and on about moving and this weekend Lou and I decided we needed to put our house up for sale. It’s time. Our interest only loan just ended last month and my hubby is killing himself working to make the crazy outrageous payment. The increase in payment and…
