As you may have noticed…our profile picture changed. That’s right…we’re down one…we lost a blogger. It’s Ok. Kristen and I have sufficiently mourned the loss and we are trying to move on. Picking up the pieces. One day at a time. We will miss Diane and her wit but honestly, that is it. She needed [...]
I had an epiphany this evening. Try as I might to deny it, I’m the worst Snow Day Mom. I like to think of myself as a super fun mom and I think most of the time I can be. However, not today! I prayed for this day. A dream come true. A whole day [...]
Jessica Is Hot I've heard these words my entire life. Jessica is my bestie, my soul sister. She was my first best friend. We were Square Pegs, Laverne and Shirley, Thelma and Louise. I've known her since we were 11, before boys, boobs, booze, break-ups and babies... She's always been the hot one and I [...]
Just when I finally decide enough is enough and I begin my annual journey to lose the five pounds from the holiday, those militant, doe-eyed bitches, the Girl Scouts, come out of the woodwork with their crumpled up order forms for the annual $11 a box fundraiser (that nets them .16 cents) You can’t [...]
What are you doing on this cold, Valentine’s Day weekend? For those of you who know me, you know I’m a HUGE fan of youth sports. My kids have been on more soccer, basketball, baseball, football, track, lacrosse, cross country teams than I can count. I buy into it 100%. (I’m even that crazy over [...]
My rock star kid has been chosen to be a part of an amazing documentary based on the book “Far From the Tree” by Andrew Solomon. Filming started this past weekend and I now have great appreciation (sort of) for people who spend their lives in front of a camera. None of us got paid [...]
Last weekend, Hannah and I had a trip to Boston. Since I’ve previously established how much I think January blows, you can imagine I was excited for a weekend distraction to get me two days closer to February. Let's just say, the day started out a little rocky... 1. Woke up at 4:00 a.m. for a 7:00 [...]
It’s January and I'm broke, fat, bored and suddenly annoyed at one of my favorite shows - House Hunters International. Where do these goddamn people come from? I'm lying on my bed in the dark trying not to think about having more wine and these people are whisking off to foreign lands to buy one-of-a-kind bungalows in Cambodia. [...]
On the 1st day of HGB Christmas, my life gave to me… Solar lights that do not light my tree On the 2nd day of HGB Christmas, my life gave to me… Two family dramas and solar lights that do not light my tree On the 3rd day of HGB Christmas, my life gave to [...]
Today is skirt Monday. What is skirt Monday you ask? It’s the equivalent of sweatpants night but for the office. It’s the day that I wear a skirt to work - not to be cute but to cover up for my usual weekend over indulgences. You see, I can’t bear to try and put on [...]
