Amazon Rocks My Socks Off: I'll Never Be Lost Again
Thanks to my Amazon Visa Credit Card and a lot of web stalking, I just used loads of Amazon Rewards Gift Certificates and bought this TomTom GPS and this dashboard mount for a whopping total of $65. I feel like I won the lottery or discovered the secret of the universe (42) and how to buy my husband the world’s greatest gift for nearly next … Continue reading Amazon Rocks My Socks Off: I'll Never Be Lost Again
Memories of Motherhood
I’m feeling nostalgic today and thought I’d take this moment to recall my favorite memories from my son’s life thus far, for no reason whatsoever – rather than wait for a birthday or milestone to justify romanticizing his life, I’m going to do it now because I love him and his wacky self everyday, even when the card companies don’t. 1. The day he was … Continue reading Memories of Motherhood
We're Luxurious Like Egyptian Cotton
So the other night I noticed a large gaping hole in my sheet – like so big I’m wondering how I didn’t notice it sooner, like say, when it happened. I am kind of sad because I really like these sheets – they’re a pretty plaid flannel material and just really go with our comforter and over all style very nicely. We have other sheets … Continue reading We're Luxurious Like Egyptian Cotton

The Sweet Far Thing: A Midway Review
Right now I’m reading The Sweet Far Thing by Libba Bray – it’s the latest (and I believe last) book in the Gemma Doyle series (trilogy?). Yet another young adult series that has captivated me, Bray creates a world of magic and petticoats. Taking place in the 19th century, achingly close to the 20th century, the books focus on the ideas of women’s rights (or … Continue reading The Sweet Far Thing: A Midway Review

Why I [don't] Write [much these days]
You may or may not know that I’m a writer. Or at least I was a writer. Can I honestly call myself a writer when mostly my only writing happens inside this blog? I graduated from college with a degree in English: Writing and Communications which may or may not have prepared me for communicating to my son what he may or may not be … Continue reading Why I [don't] Write [much these days]
