Coach has a “Man Cold”…

Coach has a “Man Cold”…

The Dreaded Man Cold… I saw this meme recently and laughed.  Coach has a “man cold.” If you are married…you know the one… Where your man has suddenly been infected with some unknown disease (probably the first of its kind by the way). He’s pitiful and can’t … [Read more...]

Which is Easier? A New Puppy or a Toddler?

So has anyone been bra shopping lately?  Does anyone really enjoy bra shopping? That’s a giant NO from me!  You may be wondering what bra shopping has to do with a puppy.  I wish I were wondering that too… But, alas….This is how our puppy, Bella Bean, feels about … [Read more...]

“Date” with the Dog

“Date” with the Dog

  I originally wrote this back in December… Coach and I stood in the kitchen.  The 9-year-old looked from one of us to the other and back again.  He cocked his blonde head to the side and asked, “Wait.  Are you going on a date or something?” I smiled, “Yes, Buddy, we are.”  He … [Read more...]

What is it with Boys and Pants?!

My 15-year-old walked out the door to get on the bus. In shorts.  It’s the middle of winter.  As he stood in the doorway I said, “Are you seriously wearing shorts!?  It’s like 30 something degrees out there!” He laughed, looked at his phone, and confirmed, “33 degrees to be … [Read more...]

Screen Time and Kids

The frantic pace of life has been nipping at my nose for some time now. I’ve been feeling it catch up to me. Like I’m running a race in slow motion, and it’s right there on my heels ready to pass me by... Threatening to pull me down at any moment… Missed emails… Piled up papers … [Read more...]

Just Call Me Dolly!

Just Call Me Dolly!

Sitting at dinner last night my 6-year-old piped up, ‘Hey Mom, you need to sing on TV.”  I looked over at her confused, “What?”  She smiled and repeated herself, ‘You need to sing on the TV.”  The boys chimed in, ‘Yeah mom!”  One of the boys added, “Yeah!  You’d be like Dolly … [Read more...]

How to Save a Life…

Music can be a powerful healer…. There are days it reaches in and grabs memories long stuffed in the far corners of my heart… Yesterday as I was driving down the road “How to save a Life” by The Fray shuffled through my play list.  As the haunting piano music played, tears … [Read more...]

Wicked!!!

I’m currently listening to the Wicked soundtrack on repeat…and singing all the parts at the top of my lungs.  All. Day. Long.  I mean in my head I’m both Elphaba AND Galinda.  Equally. At the same time.   Because. It’s WICKED! And I can’t help geeking out!  Wonder where my oldest … [Read more...]

Love me Like you Love Deer Season

Coach walked in as I was working on my laptop, “OK, I know you’re busy, but just one quick story.  You know how bucks…” Um…stop right there. No, I don’t know how bucks do anything. I don’t like hunting stories. I don’t want to hear about how their nasty glands do whatever they … [Read more...]

Save the Stores!

Last week my daughter was home from college. “Hey mom, I need a few things before I head back, can we run to the store?”  Shopping?  Yes please! I asked, “What kinds of things do you need? Like do we need to go Walmart shopping or Mall shopping?” Because everyone knows … [Read more...]
