When life gets you down, make an apron!
Sorry the blog has been languishing. It’s almost embarrassing to think about. As I mentioned last weekend, my husband got laid off. So far it’s not so bad because he’s been able to spend a lot more time with the kids this week and he has about a million things… Read More
I’ll be slaying my personal dragons that weekend.
I don’t know about you, but my blog isn’t about making money. On one hand I think, “trying to advertise seems so tacky. That feels like such a sell-out.” But on the other hand I think, “why not make money on something I already do? Especially since that’s what all… Read More
The school year draws to a close
Can you believe that school is almost over and I haven’t complained once about all the silly end-of-school activities that are happening? Welp, here it comes. Basically the last two weeks are nothing but fun times. The kids stop learning ten days before school ends because, hey, why not? Who… Read More
Super Horrid
Well, it’s another Makeupless Monday. I’m very sorry but this weekend has been hellish. Mister found out on Friday that he will be losing his job. Suck, suck and double suck. Please remember us in your prayers. Hopefully we’ll find a job soon and in the meantime we’ll be happy,… Read More
Baby Name Season
Did you know there is a Baby Name season? Well, there isn’t really. But the Social Security Administration recently released their list of the 1000 Most Popular Baby Names for 2009 (you’ll need to scroll down to the section that says “Popular Names by Birth Year” and select “top 1000”.… Read More
Rainbow Cupcakes
I’ve been devoting all morning to these. They are totally not worth the effort, by the way (but let’s hope the third graders in Arabella’s class appreciate them.) In case you’re super insane and want to make these, here is the easiest way to do it: –make a white cake… Read More
It’s another happy day around here
This sweet little baby turned nine today. Arabella Claire was my favorite birth ever; five hours from start to finish (my fastest), a kick-A epidural, and she was one of the few babies that I didn’t know ahead of time what gender she was (sometimes I like to know and… Read More
The changing table
The garbage man came yesterday which is always a big deal if you have a young boy in your house. But it was a big deal for me too because I hauled a forlorn and dilapidated changing table out to the curb. This changing table was bought at a garage… Read More
How hard can it be?
I must utter the phrase, “how hard can it be?” at least once every week or two; every time I think of something that I want to create or copy from someone or fix around my house. I wouldn’t consider myself cheap. Sadly, not at all. But I only like… Read More
Makeup Monday–Mascara
We’re back on with Makeup Monday. Sorry I missed it last week. I had something important happening but I’ve already forgotten what. This week we’re going to be talking about mascara. I have to be truthful here; mascara is not that big of a deal to me. I have dark… Read More
