The Thursday Crank

Things making me cranky this week- I took the all three kids to the dentist on Tuesday.  TD was getting her six month check-up and The Comedian was going for the first time.  It was 3 p.m. and I knew we were chancing it.  It could have been so much worse, I know that.  The [...]

The Wednesday Crank

I don’t know what is going on right now but people are seriously cranky out there today.  I have a cold and deadlines and I would much rather be laying in bed watching bad television and nursing this two week long snot-fest but I’m not cranky.  Except when I see this stuff then I get [...]

Not at My Best

It was the best of times. It was the warts of times. Warts, worst, whatever.  I feel like an angry, old hag covered in warts right about now anyway.  Vacation bliss is a distant memory.  It’s been a week of Braxton Hicks, little sleep, too much baby prep and testing of the parents.  H can’t [...]

The Black Dahlia Brightens My Day

I woke up feeling a sense of panic this morning. Surely, it had to be almost 8 a.m.  That seems to be the only time I have dreams bordering on the hysterical yet macabre.  Having just broken free from the depths of my latest escapade within my brain-It regarded The Black Dahlia case being cracked wide [...]

Mary Poppins Can Bite Me

Mary Poppins Can Bite Me

It was a beautiful fall day. The sun was out, the air crisp. The crackle of new library books was all around. Sounds like bliss, right? I should have been beaming, right? Except I wasn’t. As I opened the kitchen windows to let in that gorgeous fall breeze all I could think was, “Today is [...]

I’m Not Winning Any Awards Over Here

It’s been one of those weeks where I’m quite sure my neighbors are thinking, “What in the world is going on over there!?! That crazy lady’s kids are always crying!” Umm… yeah. I feel like I should be labeled with ‘The Worst Mother of the Year’ award. It is not that I’m sitting back trying [...]

A Case of the Monday’s

I think my head exploded in my sleep last night. I keep hearing “sounds like someone has a case of the Monday’s…” in my head and my cranky pants are already chafing me. It is barely 9 a.m. Hooray for days without sleep! Watch out world! Mummy is feeling crazy and has already gone off [...]

Sleep is My Precious

I was all set to post about well erm.. nothing… I am a zombie. A tired zombie of a woman with bags under her eyes the size of Arkansas. And I was getting a nap. Then TD decided to not nap today and woke me up with her chirpy in your face voice just as [...]

It’s Preschools Fault If My Water Breaks Today

Howdy Folks! It seems to be that time right about now. The point in our program where I begin that final countdown (Aztec Tomb, anyone?). Today, hits the ‘ONE MONTH TO GO’ mark. Can you feel my excitement? Or is that just the pain I’ve recently inflicted on you with the purple nurples and kicks [...]

Things that Make Me Cranky

I had that wrung out look about me yesterday. I just couldn’t seem to get or hold my shit together for the life of me. Sure, I made it out the door and did the good mom thing by taking TD to a new and exciting playground but once we were there I got a [...]
