i might be losing it …

OK, this 40 thing might not be going so smoothly after all. I was downstairs making dinner and had a bit of a ‘panic attack’ about getting ready for Easter. HELLO, EASTER???? Easter was two months ago … how can I be standing at the sink and suddenly panic about a holiday [...]

and this is how I spent the last weekend … no early morning drives over hill and dale to obscure lacrosse fields with peanut butter sandwiches and gatorade for lunch. I am sad that the lacrosse season is over … there is nothing I love better than watching the kids on the field … [...]

everything I want to post about today is TOTALLY inappropriate for such a lovely holiday. My husband was an absolute dream this weekend – giving me time off from being “the nagging mom” and took over that very nasty task … he also got me a lovely gift from “Coach” … the kids on [...]

Molly and I obviously touched something we shouldn’t have when we were in Washington on Wednesday … the FLU (no, not the pig flying one, just the painful wishing I could die version) struck on Friday night and I finally got out of bed on Sunday and am actually feeling kind of normal today. [...]

We had an inservice day on Wednesday. Now, usually I am the boring Mom who doesn’t plan much beyond a trip to the local playground and maybe, if the kids are really good, a trip to the local McDonalds on mid-week days off. After a couple of really good weeks, great report cards, [...]
