I’m Adaptable Like That

Posted on August 20, 2013 by joey

We’re adjusting to our new schedule, and it’s been, well, an adjustment. It sorta sucks to adjust, doesn’t it? And when you’re moving, and you know you’ll have to adjust all over again, it makes you a little less adjust-y, … Continue reading →

Let the Mama Sleep

Posted on May 12, 2013 by joey

While I could write a post entirely devoted to how tired, overwrought, and premenstrual I am, I’ve decided, instead, to write about Mother’s Day. I know it’s trendy, but I am a mother, and I couldn’t possibly let y’all forget … Continue reading →

Posted on April 30, 2013 by joey

Look what Sassy and I built tonight! The snow is so wet and heavy now, he had to be sculpted and rubbed instead of rolled and placed.  The snow has also become quite sparse, as the temperature reached a scorching … Continue reading →

Oh the Happy!

Posted on March 23, 2013 by joey

Pardon me, while I wrestle with my happiness. So sorry, beg pardon. Let’s begin with the fact that I sleep well. Granted, my in-laws are older people, so while it’s 72 or so downstairs it’s 108 upstairs. I’m more of … Continue reading →

Stressed Baby is Stressed

Posted on February 16, 2013 by joey

When we moved here, the wee ones were so wee.  They were two and three, barely off the breast and out of diapers.  As I mentioned, they don’t remember the last house we lived in.  They have no memories there. … Continue reading →

My family and I went out to Tybee Island, Georgia for a Girl Scout adventure today. We went to the Tybee Island Marine Science Center, which was maybe not the best place for a large group.  We infested that place, … Continue reading →
