I’m reminded of a conversation I had with my four year old niece last week. I thought I would share it for all of you awesome non-mom moms out there: Madison: Nee, I love you more than the birds and the trees and flowers and butterflies and God and Heaven and Jesus! My Sister: Madison!…

It’s a TRAAAAAAP!!
Ah, I have to admit, I have been wanting to use that line for a while – much like Admiral Ackbar before me. If you don’t know what I am talking about, you are clearly not a Girl Geek, like me. Here’s a hint: There are some stars… and a couple of wars 😉 It’s…

Too Pretty for Homework
Lately, my social media outlets have been crowded by this “Too Pretty for Homework” t-shirt slogan that has all the mom-blogs in an uproar. As you know, this is no mommy blog. However, when I see things like this out there, it makes my feminist vibe shoot straight up my spine and practically sprout antennae…
Read moreA New Chapter
It is definitely the end of an era. Saturday, I went to go look at a car I found on Craigslist that looked like it might be a good deal. When we got there, however, the car was a piece of crap. Covered in dents and scratches, the racing tires gave it away that someone…
Read moreSleep – Table for One
Sleep. You are an elusive bastard tonight. Even though I took my Ambien. I have been sleep eating and drinking for a few hours, but what I would really prefer is sleep SLEEPING. I have much to do tomorrow, and it won’t help to have me dozing off all day. I guess I am nervous…

Light it up!
The past month has been both trying and tiring. I spent most of June sick (sorry for the lack of posts!) and the rest of it working like a mad woman. Being self-employed is a little stressful, but it has been worth it. I would have already been sick too many times to keep working…
Read moreDay Zero
So, everybody knows there is a prep week day that goes into any new dieting plan. Even a lifestyle change. We know that we cannot possible be successful when we have things like tempting snack foods and high calorie sodas lying around. My question to you is this – What do you do with the…
Read moreBack in the Bed Again
The last week has been rough. It marked the end of my regular insurance since I left my job, and unfortunately, has also seen me in the hospital 3 times. Yep. 3 times in one week. The first two times, they couldn’t seem to kick me out fast enough. This time seems to linger on,…
Read moreBitchfest Wednesday – Friday edition
Good early morning my friends! Well, actually, there is little good about this morning. And I will tell you why (of course!): Last night, I couldn’t sleep. I really just wasn’t tired. So, I decided to stay up and get some work done toward my Friday to do list. This week has been super busy…
Read morePain in the… back?
Ok, so we all know how a great day is supposed to start. Laying around in bed until you are too hungry to stay there anymore. Heading out to lunch with your sweetie. Running errands. Then off to a BBQ. Ah, summer. You fickle bitch. This was apparently not in my cards this morning. I…
