Monday Me Time C-style

Jenny and I decided today that we are going to start our own Famojo Meme. Every Monday we are going to talk about whatever ‘me time’ we were able to scrounge up over the weekend or what is planned for the week ahead. I crave Me Time. Probably because I feel like I rarely get it. This weekend my ‘Me Time’ consisted of taking a shower. As for this week, hopefully I can get my ass back to...

Let’s Talk About Sex

Whether you want to admit it or not, women love sex. They also love talking about it with their girlfriends. It may not always be appropriate, but imagine if you could just say it all with no consequence and no embarrassment. Most of the time real-life conversation stays pretty clean, like talking about what your favorite positions are. Fortunately for you, this is not a live conversation. It is a glimpse into...

Afterall, they are just practicing medicine

I am sick and tired of schlepping from doctor visit to doctor visit and still getting nowhere. At first the doctor said Jade has asthma caused by allergies. Now that I have taken her to an allergist and they have found no allergies. Does she still have Asthma? The allergist says no, but to keep giving her the asthma medication. So I treat her for asthma even though she doesn’t have it? This is unbelievably...

Green Tips #2

Save paper and ink on simple notes and directions. Just use your cellphone.  Most phones are able to access email and it is so easy to just email yourself directions when driving somewhere new or email yourself a grocery list. Then, when you are in the car or at the store, you have easy access to your “note” without wasting the paper and ink. -Driving by a house for sale and want to write down the...

Green Tips #1

The 2-Year-Old Who Likes Drugs

A few weeks ago we had some out of town visitors. They stayed one night and we were planning to take them to South Beach the next night so they could have their own “parent’s without kid’s night”. After breakfast, we all went our own ways in the house. Cleaning, playing, showering, and packing. At one point Jade had found our guest’s make-up bag and started putting on some blush, then she put on her...

A New Meaning To The Devil Child

I’m in the grocery store with my son, Jagger and we are in the checkout line. I look behind me and see a guy with piercings and tattoos… no big deal and I don’t pay much attention. I pay, we leave. We get in the car and as I am driving away, Jagger says “mommy, I just saw a man with horns.” I say “You did? Was he in line behind us?” and he says “yes, he also had fangs. How did he get them?”...

Wine: Mom’s drink of choice

Before having kids, I had this little “problem”. Whenever I was out at a bar or a restaurant, I never knew what to order. My husband was all too familiar with the pathetic glance I’d send his way, secretly begging for assistance. He was not sympathetic. Over ten years out of highschool, I should have known what I liked to drink at that point. All of my girlfriends had carefully pegged their...

Peaceful Morning

Today I am in heaven. My husband arrived yesterday from his 11 day “guy’s trip” and this morning was absolute heaven. He must have gotten up with the kids because no one came into my room this morning screaming at me “MOMMY, I AM HUNGRY!” I woke up on my own this morning, no alarm clock, no dogs breathing heavily, and no kids screaming at me. When I came out of my bedroom, my kids were dressed and...

A Little Late for Lactation

Apparently my right tit missed the memo that I stopped breast feeding 8 months ago. I’ve had some suspicions that righty might be leaking, but it has never been confirmed. Every now and then, I feel a slight wet sensation on my shirt, but I look down and there is nothing there. I internally blame it on water splashing from the sink or whatever other feasible idea I can come up with. I don’t know...
