Yesterday was Jack’s first full day of Kindergarten. Jack really wanted to ride the bus. Being somewhat of a nervous Nellie about the whole bus situation, I called at lunch time to verify that everything was in order. I even said, “Maybe I should just pick him up today.” I was assured that was a...
Emie had her first hair cut today. (Yes I know that I possibly wrote a whole other post about another hair cut (or two), but I’ve just chosen to completely forget all that now. It was cheaper than the therapy it would take to get over the trauma. Can you just focus and quit trying...
I’m pretty certain that the 80’s are on their way back in style. All evidence points to this fact. I’m pretty certain that my thighs aren’t up to the task of leggings and pencil jeans. Damn you peg-legged 80’s clothing. Damn you. Now for the first time in my life I’m force with a dilemma I...
Today was Stake Conference at church. In the middle of Elder Pace’s talk, Emie desperately needed to go potty. I took her. I chatted with the other moms waiting in the bathroom. I did not supervise, I talked. Sometimes sacrifices have to be made for sanity. She did not pull her panties down far enough...

FREAKIN’ HILARIOUS!!! LMAO! I’ve heard of drying clothes under the hand dryer in the bathroom, but I never would have thought of the microwave. That’s what I call resourceful. You get an A+!

OH MY GOSH. i am busting a gut! even better that you need to share this story with ms. jae. what is it about little girls and peeing at church?! it’s a good thing you didn’t supervise because ms. jae did—and not only did her little girl pee all over her panties…she peed all over ms. jae!!
alas, she’s not as resourceful as you though…she snagged a pair of pullups from an unpottytrained rugrat.
i’ll NEVER think of popcorn the same again!

Well, as I sit here this morning, I consider myself properly chastised by she who seldom updates her blog. Okay, I get it. I need to post, but the I’ve got nothing-ness continues. Last night I won the Pulitzer on my back again. As the cherubs were exhausted from the BBQ and swimming all day,...
