Ya’ll, I’m telling you I don’t know what happened to my family but it was bad. Maybe the planets aligned or someone put a hex on me. Whoever has my Voodoo Doll needs to give it a back rub and say they’re sorry for this one because it was just rude. Not two days afterContinue reading “Poop Story Double Feature: Part Two, Everybody Poops”

Poop Story Double Feature: Part One, The Nap That Went Wrong
The start of our tale begins at nap time on an ordinary day. I put the girls down for a nap but they fought it for an hour. They played and giggled and chattered. They weren’t fighting or screaming and I figured they’d fall asleep at some point so I rolled with it. Anything toContinue reading “Poop Story Double Feature: Part One, The Nap That Went Wrong”
A Minute Longer
Dear Tiny Conqueror, You’re fussy tonight. You have a diaper rash, a new tooth, and your sister woke you up. Of course, she settled back down quickly but you’re my finicky sleeper.

Ooo That Smell!
Yesterday as we headed to a friend’s house we were assaulted by a horrid smell. The Hubs said that he smelled something as soon as he sat in the driver’s seat. What was it? Dog poop?…Again?! We both checked our shoes…Nothing. The Boy checked his…Nothing. Maybe we were imagining things. I sniffed my clothes…Nope. JustContinue reading “Ooo That Smell!”
Self-reflection
It’s 10:30 at night and I’m sitting in my kitchen listening to the coffee pot spit and splutter while I brew up a giant pot of herbal tea. I wonder absentmindedly if our stomachs make similar sounds when we digest. Tonight I have forced myself to slow the hell down. My mind is uneasy. IContinue reading “Self-reflection”
