Let's Do Lunch!

“Let’s go to lunch!” my adoring husband said to me yesterday, “I went to this great Chinese buffet last week, and I’d like to take you there”

“Chinese buffet?” I questioned suspiciously “You hate Chinese buffets. Oh wait…were there any white people there?”

You may think this is an odd question, but what my Beloved doesn’t realize that . . . → Read More: Let's Do Lunch!

Battle of the Q-tips

For reasons that still remain unclear to me (although I’m pretty sure my mother has something to do with it) one of Shaun’s greatest joys in life is to torment me and try to “get my goat” as he calls it. I’ve always been pretty good at ignoring him. (If you know my mother, you understand . . . → Read More: Battle of the Q-tips

Culinary Challenged

I used to think I was a pretty good cook. (After all, my mother taught me everything I know)That was until I started cooking for Shaun. When we were first married he told me how wonderful everything I prepared was and wolfed it all down. (Sometimes it was so bad that even I couldn’t eat it) . . . → Read More: Culinary Challenged

Alien Invasion

Yesterday morning, I noticed that something was different although I couldn’t quite put my finger on it.  Finally, it occurred to me that the sky was brighter than it usually was.  I was a little apprehensive, but not too much.  Shortly after that realization, our sweet puppy, Shelly, started barking like crazy. I assumed she was barking because…well…that’s just . . . → Read More: Alien Invasion

Speaking of Sports…

We’re going to the SUPER BOWL, Baby!

OK, so I probably wouldn’t even know that Super Bowl Sunday was coming up except for the fact that we’ve been invited to a party for it. Oh yeah, and there’s that thing about Seattle going CRAZY! Everywhere you look you see “Seahawk Blue” and big signs that shout out . . . → Read More: Speaking of Sports…

Playing the Game

It seems to me that I go to quite a few basketball games. I have to admit though, that I don’t really understand the game. I know the general gist of it is to get the orange ball with funny black squiggles on it into the hoop located way up in the air on either end . . . → Read More: Playing the Game

Let's do the Time Warp again…

“Mom! Look at this new dance Sarah taught me.”

“OK, I’m watching” I said. Both girls (and Shaun too!) are forever showing me something and anything. I have to admit, I’m not always interested in whatever it is, but I realize what an honor it is to be the chosen audience, so I always watch. (or at . . . → Read More: Let's do the Time Warp again…

My Epiphany

Shaun told me that I really needed to start blogging again. That my loyal readers (I only call them that because he did, and well…Ashley won’t let me call her my groupie!) were starting to get restless. Meaning that HE was getting restless and wanted to read more. Does he not hear enough of what I . . . → Read More: My Epiphany

Girl's Day Out

Last night, right before KT fell asleep, she told me that we need to do something wonderful and highly memorable today. Miss Bossy Pants then told me that she expected a list of ten good ideas to be ready for her in the morning. She then added the stipulation that it could not include such mundane . . . → Read More: Girl's Day Out

Back to the Mom Mobile

Now that Shaun is home again, he seems to want his Jeep back.  It doesn’t matter to him that I don’t want to give it back.  It also doesn’t matter how big of a hissy fit I throw.  (OK, in my defense, I didn’t actually have one, but I just know it wouldn’t matter!)  He seems to think I don’t . . . → Read More: Back to the Mom Mobile
