November 12, 2009: More than the usual amount of melodrama
Comments: 15 | Categories: Cranky , Life with two , NaNoWriMo09 , This Mom thing
The only good thing I can say about today is that I worked out. THAT IS IT. (Oh, I also saw Carrie and Liz and their respective kiddos and that was ALSO a good thing lest they read this and...

September 30, 2009: It starts with a dishwasher and goes nowhere
Comments: 13 | Categories: Cranky
Our first apartment didn't have a dishwasher. I didn't use the dishwashers in the apartments before that, since I never dirtied enough dishes at one time. And I grew up in Europe, where no one (at least then) had dishwashers...

I'm going to insert a pause in the near-irrational Blathering excitement (although, please note, I FINALLY decided what I am going to pack, which has been a dilemma of Mammoth and Life-Impacting Proportions) and tell you that we are having...

1. Of course, on his second day back in the office, Phillip has his late night server update whatever-it-is. Thank goodness this was the best day Jack's had since we came home, because Molly is (I think) teething and refuses...

I know you're probably all sick of the blogger types in the Pacific Northwest going all Snowpocalypse on you, but DOOOOOOODS. This is nuts. And it's supposed to snow more tonight, which: YAY. CHRISTMAS IS CANCELED. Phillip and I can't...

June 26, 2008: Well, this is depressing
Comments: 4 | Categories: Cranky
Jack is now having meltdowns when Phillip leaves for work. We have to distract him and have Phillip sneak out somehow. Then he's clingy and/or getting into everything he's not supposed to be getting into. Which means I am picking...

June 18, 2008: I'll just throw anything up here and see if it sticks

My sister and I are sitting here drinking coffee. We're at my parents' house. Jack is napping upstairs. My parents are out grocery shopping. And my sister and I are very very bored. "Help me write a blog post." "What?"...

Today at Parenting I attempt to rationalize my lack of belly shots, blog posts and new girly bedding for the new baby. "Harrumph," says New Baby. "Good luck with THAT one." After I wrote that Fix Up My Bedroom post...

May 1, 2008: Not a lot of sleeping in our house last night...
Comments: 2 | Categories: Cranky
I'm at my parents' house today. My mom took the day off so we can take Jack for his 12 month pictures. Even if I were allowed to drink, it's too early in the day. If you're really annoyed about...

March 20, 2008: Attempting to have a sunny disposition
Comments: 7 | Categories: Cranky
I don't know why I'm so cranky this morning. I'm sure it has nothing to do with hauling a baby away from the stairs for the forty-seventh time in a span of fifteen minutes. Or being up half the night...
