I love Walgreens

The weird thing is I never used to shop there. Two years ago when I became anal retentive on saving money I fell fast and hard for Walgreens. Today I almost took the register chick to the ground because she wouldn’t ring my “Buy One Get One Free” coupon up right, but she’ll pay in [...]

Weekends are for Rest

Every weekend I go into it thinking, finally some rest. Not. But It’s always worth the lack of sleep. Friday night we enjoyed a beautiful evening at our school’s first home football game of the season. We live very close to the stadium and our backyard lends itself for a great tailgating location. Saturday morning [...]

I hate school

Before I had children I thought once they went to school the mother would tinker around the house. You know, a little laundry, baking a batch of cookies, coffee with friends, all along with a little yard work, oh and my freelance design business… WRONG. I’m crazed. I’ve filled out enough forms in the last [...]

BRA Battle Ready Armor

I love Target, but lately they’ve made some dumb moves. But when it comes to customer service. I love them. Why? I bought a few bras for one of my daughters. She didn’t like them. I (usually) always save the receipt, but somehow I misplaced this one. Oh well, I’ll return them without. I’m sure [...]

Scream Salad

Tomorrow is the first day of school in our home. We had a lovely day running last minute errands. Eddie’s face is now visible after a much needed haircut. The only negative is that I can’t grab him by the top of his head anymore. Like I said everything was going wonderfully. I made a [...]

Why is There a Pig Head on the Stovetop?

Last Sunday I came home to a pig head being boiled on top of the stove. Why? Eddie came upon a pig roast and asked for the head. Why? He wants a skull to put on his door. The pig stayed in the pot all night after boiling for the majority of the evening. It [...]

Body Shaper aka Girdle

Flattens the tummy, lifts and smoothes your bottom without seams. Sign me up. A few weeks ago I was browsing the undergarment department looking for something to hide some of my “stuff”. After talking to myself and telling myself that I’m not 30-something anymore, I decided I could try some old lady panties. The way I [...]

There’s a guy on the roof

10:20 AM this morning. 2nd last summer vacation day to sleep in:) 15 year old comes running out of her bedroom. MOM, THERE’S A GUY ON THE ROOF. 13 year old follows. THERE’S A GUY AT MY WINDOW. 11 year old – no movement. Yes, it’s a fun and easy way to get them out [...]

We were robbed last night

Crash. Bark. Bark. 5:00 AM. Eyes wide open. I can’t hear anything, but the air conditioner’s hum. Why does my husband need white noise to sleep? I prefer to hear sirens, horns, and birds. Did I dream the loud crash? Did the dog bark? Should I go downstairs and check? The burglar alarm is set, [...]

What is an Idiot Mom?

Have you ever been on the phone talking to customer service and the person on the other end says, “hold on, let me connect you with someone who can help.” Then you hear them say, “I’ve got an ID ten T on line 4.” That’s an Idiot Mom aka ID10T Mom. I was blogging about [...]
