My momfession of the day 27 Aug 2013 | 05:58 am
I have a confession to make. I could probably confess a lot of things if I had a kid-free week and enough energy to type nonstop the entire time- but I don’t. I’m far too lazy for all that nonsense. ...
Parenthood is like… 24 Aug 2013 | 05:59 am
How do you describe parenthood? Have you ever tried? It’s hard to find the words to really sum up something so broad and mysterious and infuriating; but if you were to try- what would you say? Maybe y...
My children are morning people (and other ways my spawn are trying to kill me) 22 Aug 2013 | 06:03 am
There are two people living in my house that I am positive are actively attempting to kill me; three if you ask my husband the week of my period. I’m not joking. Each day I become more convinced that...
Where did senses of humor and fun go? 20 Aug 2013 | 05:59 am

The day my kid let me take the fall 9 Aug 2013 | 06:00 am
I didn’t think it would happen so soon. I thought I had more time! More time to prepare for life to be forever altered, more time to come to terms with this new and scary reality. Today… my kid ratte...
Poison Ivy and Postpartum. Same damn thing! 7 Aug 2013 | 05:59 am
About a week ago, I thought I was having some sort of allergic reaction. Maybe it was my penchant for thrifting- who knows what I might have touched and what might have been on it; maybe I was using s...
The Richmond Event Roundup- awkward interviews and the scariest moment of my life 6 Aug 2013 | 05:59 am
The past week has been, for lack of a better word, crazy. It was also a very big step for me in my chosen “career” path (more of a dream than a career, but I digress.) My very first “business” trip a...
