Hold still, mommy!

I’m still trying to figure out whose karmic debt I’m paying off.  It can’t be mine.  Boy Scout must have been one obnoxious little tyke to have produced two such fine examples of cosmic retribution.  That would be our wonderful children, just in case you’re a little slow on the uptake.
I tried to do something nice for [...]

Caylee Anthony case: DNA evidence says Caylee is dead

Caylee Anthony is dead.  I just read here, here, and here all I need to know to be sure.  End of story as far as I’m concerned.  All I want to know is WHY there is talk of limited immunity for Casey if she tells them where to find the body?  Apparently authorities have promised not to use [...]

Stranger things have happened

A funny thing happened today.  I had perfect hair.  All day long.  I can count on one finger the number of times this has happened in my life.  That’s right, one finger.  Not one hand, one finger.  How did this happen, you ask?  I’m a massively talented hair stylist and I forgot to tell you?  You can’t [...]

Toothbrushing for dummies

I learned a very valuable lesson today.  It came to me by way of my new Sonicare Flexcare toothbrush.  It’s the first electric (sonic if you want to be snooty) toothbrush I’ve ever owned, and it did not come with an instruction manual.  The Amazon seller I purchased it from didn’t see fit to include [...]

Coloring with a preschooler 101

Bossypants reminded me yet again today that there’s only one valid point of view around here.  And it isn’t mine.  I bought her a Crayola Color Wonder coloring book the other day–the sort that comes with a book of 24 pages and a set of markers that will only work on the special Color Wonder paper.  [...]

Caylee Anthony thoughts & updates…rehashing the rehash

I feel as though Caylee Anthony’s story has taken over my blog.  It’s definitely taken over my thoughts lately, so I suppose it’s only natural that my blog be a reflection of that.  As I’ve indicated in some of my comments to my previous posts on this topic, I don’t usually get so interested in [...]

Not sleeping with the (tiny) enemy

What do you do when your child suddenly decides sleep is the enemy?  Bossypants has gone on a sleep strike and I’m her unwilling captive.  She wakes at 6 in the morning and doesn’t fall asleep until some time after 11 pm.  Forget about a nap during the day.  I’m starting to wonder if this [...]
