  • The February Blob

    Life is not that hard. My life, by comparison to several million people, is not that hard. I still feel like I’m under a giant crushing rock lately. I’m the blob from the depression commercial. I think it might have been the Zoloft advertisement years ago. The bubble blob that drifted through life with the…

  • I Can’t Keep Go-Gurt in Stock

    “Maybe we should go shopping tonight,” my daughter suggested as we walked in the door after returning from the after school program. “Why shopping? What do you think we need?” I asked. “We are out of yogurt again,” was the reply. “Well, it’s not my problem that you and your brother consumed 16 tubes of…

  • Swimsuit Shopping with #nofilter

    In case anyone was wondering about this, don’t ever go swimsuit shopping with young children. I mean, infants through toddlers, probably just fine. But if your kids are old enough to have a vocabulary and they know how to use it, you are in trouble. This is one of those times when I wish the…

  • The Light and Fluffy Pre-Holiday Recap

    Hey blog. It has been awhile. So much has happened over the past 3 months and instead of happily chatting about it to the world, I’ve decided that large chunks of the time period should just be swept under the rug. Not too much damage done, thankfully, but maybe enough to close out 2017. Let’s…

  • The iPhone Police: Quinquagenarian v. Teenage Son

    How many government workers does it take to figure out how to restrict a teenager’s access on their iPhone? I know, a new version of an old joke. I’m so scared to become a parent of a teenager. Only 6 more years. Six more years until I will live in even more of a hyper…

  • Non-stop!

    LOL! After writing about how much I love side gigs, the only downside is that we are even more non-stop than we were in the past. Dog sitting requests are pouring in and each visitor we host captures our hearts. This week, our beloved German Shorthaired Pointer went home. She ended up staying a week…

  • Microblog Monday: 5 Life Changing Reasons!

    One of the things that’s freaking me out right now is how much I LOVE having side businesses. I’m hoping one day that I can just become a master of side businesses and a full-time employee of none. Now if I can just get the American healthcare system to play nice with me. Five life-changing…

  • Weekend Recap: Posh, Pig Roasts, Paris, Pups and Police

    This weekend was a bit surreal in terms of experiences. So, Thursday evening I got a frantic message from a woman saying her mother is leaving for Paris on Friday morning and could I watch her dog for the next 13 days. Upon learning that the dog is a breed I grew up with (German…

  • 5 Things I Love About Summer!

    The title of this blog is meant to come across as positive, exciting and bursting with infectious happy energy! Here is what I’m really thinking about summer right now: I’m tired of living sans air conditioning. The average temperature in my home runs about 85 degrees in the early evening. I swore up and down…

  • The Marijuana Sitter

    For the past few years, I’ve had the honor (?) of living next door to a trailblazer in the now legalized marijuana grow industry. While HIS grow has never been legal, because he exceeds by at least 20 times the number of plants he can legally grow and operates across the street from a daycare,…
