*THIS POST CONTAINS PROFANITY. IF YOU ARE OFFENDED BY SWEAR WORDS AND INTENSE SARCASM THIS ISN'T FOR YOU. HOWEVER, IT'S MY POST. I GET TO DO WHAT I WANT.* Dear CDC Mother Fuckers: I am writing this because I NEED to. You will probably never see it but I need to get this out [...]
It turns out that we all may have a little hoarder in us. I'm extremely organized and routinely purge my house and wardrobe of unused items. Better to donate them so they can get some use. That being said I was going through some of my files today and realized they were really full and [...]
I hate to admit it but I fear change. I like to believe that I am crazy, free-spirited and go with the flow but when it comes to life changes, I'm actually a creature of habit. I just made a big change and it was actually invigorating. After 10 years at my job, I left and started a new [...]
Saturday was the weirdest family day ever. We drove home from vacation late Friday night and were discussing the fun we had, food we ate, etc. We all decided it was “back to business” when we woke up on Saturday. I got up and planned to take a run on the canal. Justin usually comes [...]
I always have these grand plans in my head….they sound so good and in my fairytale brain, they work out perfectly without a hitch. Ummmm. Yeah. Not really. I had this great idea for my birthday to have a family dinner ….I wanted to sit outside and drink a margarita. Can you see it? Ideal [...]

We just returned from two glorious weeks in California. It was awesome and we had a great time. With that on my mind, I decided to write a practical (no humor, sex or swearing will be contained within) blog about the beauty and ease of travel now that we have technology at our fingertips. I [...]
My entire family just traveled from Maryland to Atlanta, Georgia and back for a family wedding. In the 5 days of "vacation" we were in the car for 4 of those days. We visited friends in Charlotte NC and Blacksburg Virginia, visited 2 colleges, spent $400 on gasoline, $900 on hotel rooms and too [...]
It’s the first week of summer and I’ve already got the summertime blues. I remember my favorite things about summer: the ice cream man, halter tops, lazy days at the pool... Well not anymore! Summer isn't the same as a working mom. I'm not one to complain about working because I love what I do, however, summer's a [...]
Last Thursday I went to see The Fault in our Stars with Sarah and a group of her friends. It was the movie premiere before opening to the general public the next night. Needless to say, everyone was pumped up. I loved the book even though I was not the author’s target market. So sad [...]
