Sunday night hea(v)diness...

I've been a little pensive today...moreso than usual I guess. I've been thinking about how having a child has changed so much of my life. People told me throughout my pregnancy "it'll change your life". No kidding. I've thought about how my perception of time has changed. Most days I feel as if I'm... Sign in to see full entry.

Jelly shoes and mock turtlenecks...

I might be showing my age here, but I was just on the phone with one of my girlfriends who was my dormmate in college and we were having a good laugh over fashions of the 80's and early 90's. A few of our favorites were: 1. jelly bracelets and shoes (can you imagine the profit margin on selling... Sign in to see full entry.

Mama's first big, proud moment!

Well, except for the birth of course. Sucky did the cutest, most unexpected thing last night! My husband was giving him a bottle (we breast and bottle feed so daddy can be part of the feeding process, too) when he came running upstairs with Sucky laying on a down pillow. "Look! Look what he's... Sign in to see full entry.

I just might touch some nerves with this post...

but I'd like to know what you think. I know what I think. My mother is a "new" Christian. She found God, I dunno, like six or seven years ago. I have to say no matter my personal beliefs toward "organized" religion, that she is a better person for it. Growing up my mother was very abusive. I say... Sign in to see full entry.

How long will YOU live?

I've been obsessed with health for as long as I can remember. This is not to say that I'm without my own misgivings. I love hotdogs. I never met a chocolate chip cookie I didn't horf down in less than two seconds. I even (gasp) smoked a few cigarettes and whatnot in college. However, the secrets to... Sign in to see full entry.

Is there really any such thing as anonymity?

I was a Blogit blogger several years ago. I've returned to happily find some of my favorite writers still here! I came back because sometimes it's nice to get a little feedback on your thoughts...though that's never my motivation for writing anything. I've filled hundreds of journal pages and have...

Restaurant Dining 101- Do NOT be "That" Guy...Seriously

My husband is the Regional VP of Ops for a wide variety of fine dining and casual restaurant concepts. We were talking today about how both of us are extremely intolerant of anyone in our dining party being disrespectful to servers and bartenders when we go out to eat. I've worked in the service...

For love of the game...

It's a pretty lazy Saturday at my house. Me, my husband and Sucky are all hanging out in our P.J.'s watching football (actually Sucky is sleeping after keeping me up all night with his grunting and pushing...infant bowels are such fun). We've all eaten, but I'm pretty sure no one has brushed their... Sign in to see full entry.

Are YOU a believer?

As a professional in the spa industry and a licensed bodywork therapist I have been exposed to a number of "healing arts". You could say it's my job to know the ins and outs of a wide variety of alternative medicine modalities especially as they apply to spa treatments. My question to you is...what...

Sucky Shoots...Sucky Scores!

I got peed on today. I don't mean this in any kind of metaphorical way either. See,the little man hates being cold. He hates taking baths. This is no secret. Typically, he'll wail and scream and flail his little appendages all over while I'm trying to undress him, put him in the tub, wash him and... Sign in to see full entry.
