Watch me Procreate

Greetings from the couch.

January 6, 2009

Bed rest can suck it. Apparently, my blood pressure was high at my appointment yesterday, and that, along with some very annoyingly constant cramping, has sounded an alarm, and I have been restricted to couch duty until my re-check next week. So, I am doing my mothering and wifing from the couch this week. I [...]

Another one for the books.

December 28, 2008

Christmas ’08 was the balls. I loved it, the boys loved it, even my scroogey hubby loved it. The gifts were amazing, the family wasn’t smothering, and the food was to die for. The boys got completely spoiled, and it was the first year they really got the whole Santa Claus delivering gifts thing, so [...]

Lemons into lemoncello, a Christmas card story

December 23, 2008

Once upon a time, my home was filled with cute, adorable, saccharine filled Christmas pictures. The likes of which made for the types of Christmas cards one would keep displayed year round. Giggles. Babies in oversized Santa hats. Puppies hiding under the tree. It was a gay time. But this year, with the biting winter [...]

Merry.

December 21, 2008

Holy balls. It’s freezing. After a full day of last minute shopping, I am frostbit and chapped in places I have never been frostbitten and chapped before. But, it’s Christmas time. Always a cluster fuck, eh? I mean, don’t get me wrong, I completely love it. The pretty snow, the cookies, the food, the presents, [...]

Batting 1000

December 15, 2008

You know when your kids totally do something new and shocking, like, oh, I don’t know…let’s say pull a dining room chair up to the kitchen counter and start playing with the knife block or dick around on the stove. And you are all like, where in fucks sake did you learn that shit? And [...]

My breakfast of champions.

December 12, 2008

Best breakfast ever? Cold pineapple and green pepper pizza with thick crust. I have been dreaming of it all night. I woke up at 6am drooling for it. Literally…wet pillow. I get to the kitchen, and I see it…on the counter…in the box it came in last night. COME ON! Andy! The deal was, I [...]

I’m feeling…poetic.

Just like old times.

December 3, 2008

I haven’t numbered things in a while. I think I will go ahead and do that now. Just to be nostalgic. 1. I think my thighs are starting to rub together…like…full time. This scares me. I mean, not enough to stop eating burritos, but enough to make me drink water between bites. 2. I literally [...]

Holy Mother!

November 17, 2008

Ok, first things first. I got a flu shot today. First one ever. See. Totally hurts. Have no mobility in my arm. Plus, they put a bandaid on it, which seems silly to me. Now I have to relive the pain when I pull the little bastard off. Not that I am hairy or anything, [...]

Stink

November 13, 2008

I love sauerkraut.   Can’t get enough of it.   My first pregnancy, my favorite meal was a baked potato covered in fajita steak strips, A1 sauce and sauerkraut.   Yuuuuummmm.   Even now, it’s all I think about. Like that slutty cheerleader fantasy from American Beauty, except instead of rose petals, I am totally [...]
