Seriously?

2008-08-20T20:33:04Z

My husband is sick. He just sent me an e-mail letting me know that he's at home with the baby but vomiting, so I'll need to hurry home. My day in a nutshell: Up all night tending to a wee 'un's runny diapers, working forecasts at work without th...

I have no originality...

Why should I come up with interesting things on my own when everyone else does it for me?

What to do?

2008-08-20T14:54:19Z

In exactly one week, I will get to enjoy a little mini-vacation. I was able to move my afternoon appointment to first thing in the morning (after dropping off The Boy, of course), so as soon as I'm done with the dermatologist, I'll get to have an ...

Make it stop!

2008-08-20T05:34:09Z

I'm exhausted. A big part of it is my fault. After all, instead of immediately crawling back into bed, I paused at my computer to blog about being tired. The bigger part of it, however, lies solely at the feet of my nemesis: Toddler Tummy. Yes, a...

Ick.

2008-08-18T15:19:24Z

So, I have two doctor appointments next Wednesday. One is an annual check up and not a big deal. The other is a visit with a dermatologist. This is actually an appointment I've been putting off for some time, but now it's absolutely critical that ...

Fay is en route to Central Florida

2008-08-18T13:39:26Z

Normally, I would be so excited to hear those words, but only because it would be so nice to see my friend Faye (and her husband and child, of course). Alas, no; I refer to the Tropical-Storm-predicted-to-turn-into-Category-1-Hurricane Fay. The ...

Isn't that a bit much? (Or, a message to all the Eagle alumni out there)

2008-08-16T14:07:13Z

Let me start with a little anecdote about my own 10-year high school reunion. I was, after all, on the planning committee and did my part to contact alumni and help plan the event. Because I was already living in Orlando, I wasn't able to do any l...

I want a vacation... (and funny antics by The Boy)

2008-08-15T20:28:06Z

I really just need a day off. Considering that my last day off from work (not including weekends) was spent in the doctor's office and later collecting samples from my son's dirty diapers, I just need a break. And it's already the middle of Augu...

There's No Going Back

2008-08-14T14:40:21Z

I was thinking about part of my Senior Yearbook quote, a gem I pulled out of one of my many journals, a line that summarized my feelings of standing on the precipice of adulthood: "It's so hard to let go of the past when you don't know what's in ...

No cake for you!

2008-08-13T19:29:56Z

My husband just sent me an e-mail: "Daycare called. Someone brought in cupcakes for the 1 year olds. They called to see if he could have one. I said no. They are giving him rice cakes. Bright idea to give a bunch of 1 year olds cake. They are al...
