If You Give A Mom A Margarita

If the mouse gets a cookie, the pig gets a pancake, and the moose gets a muffin, why can’t the mom have a margarita?

My Mostly Make-Up Free, Pony-Tailed Existence

Once upon a time, there was a woman who spent her days in a dreary little cubicle.  She longed for opportunities to venture forth into the world outside those three confining walls, adventures like team meetings, facilitating workshops, housing inspections, and site visits.  One day, a grand adventure, the ultimate escape, presented itself, and she took flight.  Curious to hear about how she spends her days since breaking free?

The Law of Diminishing Perfection

The roller coaster of awesomeness that every mom has faced, is facing, or will face.  I suffered a swift plummet down a steep hill, but have since climbed my way back to the top, where I’m enjoying the view!

… about my children, Squirt and Squeak:

Hugs & Kisses

I get teary-eyed every time I read this post.   It’s the little things…

Raging Storm

Everything you ever wanted to know about day-to-day life in a Warrior household.  Our Numero Uno Fan (aka Nana) picked this as her absolute favorite post about her oldest granddaughter.

Baby Mullet

It’s untalented folks (like me) who keep talented folks (like hair stylists) in business.  Numero Uno Fan picked this one as her favorite post about her youngest granddaughter.

A Poem to Remember

Squirt is a young aspiring writer and I am a proud mommy, happily publishing her poetry on my blog!

Under Surveillance

Parents, do you ever have the feeling that you are being watched?  You probably are.

Help, I Can’t Stop Hitting Myself!

The Husband’s Number-One, All-Time-Favorite post reveals a bit about what might be going on inside our littlest one’s mind.

Hair Extraordinaire

Oh, what a marvelous head of hair she has!

… about me:

Potty Mouth

Trying to find humor in my inability to swear successfully, this post is an excellent example of why I was so hopelessly uncool in high school.

… about odiferous topics:

Far Flung Feces:  The Tale of the Poop Coat

The story of young love ruined by a smelly day at work.

Do Not Read This

For six months of writing this blog, I’ve resisted the urge to write about baby poop.  Until, that is, this incident…

… about travel:

How Rachael Ray Stole My French Fries

What else can I say?  The title sums it up pretty well!

Ethiopia, Part 4: Kids & Cameras

If you missed it, I wrote an 11-part series about our experiences in Ethiopia.  This one, however, describes the best part of the entire experience:  The children!

… about books:

Historically Speaking

I have an affliction – I am historically ignorant.  I have set out on a quest to remedy this situation.  Here are some history books I’ve discovered along the way.

… about marriage:

I’m a Good Wife Even if I’m Not a Good Cook

I’m no Martha Stewart, no Rachael Ray, no Paula Deen.  Heck, I might even venture to say I’m no Ronald McDonald.  But I AM a darn good wife!

… about real estate & moving:

How Snoop & Panda Destroyed My Stuff

I am never moving again.  Even when I’m old(er) and wrinkly(er) and achy(er), I plan on staying here.  I’ll even have a lift chair installed to get up to my bedroom.  So long as I never have to move again.
