Post image for Gin Anyone? Not Me Monday ~ 03-08-10

Either I’m very tired, very distracted or very confused…maybe all?

I did not attempt to place the gallon of milk in the (un-refrigerated) pantry.

I did not attempt to place the box of cereal in the freezer.

I did not make a salad, readying to finishing it off with a mixture of red wine vinegar and olive oil as dressing. This finishing touch did not result in an attempt to unscrew and lift to pour the bottle of Gin into my salad instead of the little bottle of red wine vinegar.

These did not happen on completely different days. I do not think hubs better come home quickly before the Gin actually makes it into my next salad.

Nope. Not Me!

Not Me! Monday is part of a continuing blog carnival. This blog carnival was created by MckMama. You can head over to her blog to read what she and everyone else have not been doing this week.

Reliving ‘That’ Moment on NBC’s “Parenthood”

March 4, 2010

I don’t know if you had the chance to watch Parenthood Tuesday night. If you haven’t you should search the net for the series premier.
I had tears in my eyes as the initial diagnosis of Aspergers comes out. The absolute fear of the unknown. The absolute fear and devastation of [...]

End the R-Word

March 3, 2010

You might be wondering why I’m supporting this day, this cause. Other than the obvious of how this is offensive to most everyone.

I support this because no matter what the challenge, the diagnosis – no matter how far our children come, how much they achieve, they will hear this disgusting word aimed at them [...]

Oops, I Did It Again….

February 24, 2010

Yes, this is me being bored with my ‘look’.
Yes, this is something I’ve done every year so far.
Yes, you should expect this to be a little messed up for a bit.

Not Me Monday ~ 2-22-2010

February 22, 2010

I did not threaten my son that if he didn’t stop whining, I would find more medicine for him to take. I did not chuckle inside at the sheer insanity of that threat. I do not apparently have any other discipline options. It was not going to be a Flinstone’s vitamin. It [...]

Say What?!? Some Things Can Wait ~ 2/19/10

February 19, 2010

This is a family show,
but this is a warning
for TMI below….

Her: “Mommy, why are you wearing underwear when you sleep?”
Me: “Because I always where underwear.”
Her: “But why?”
Me: “Because I like to. When you aren’t wearing diapers at night anymore you’ll wear underwear too.”
(Perplexed look. I reconsider my statement, she is a ‘freedom lov’n girl’ after [...]

I want to be a perfect mother…are you?

February 17, 2010

How many times does a mother feel a failure? Am I the only one?
I think I’m a good mother, but I have more moments than I ever wish to admit where a meltdown of all that is holding me together occurs. I don’t know why. From playing a more-or-less single mom for 1 ½ months [...]

Rays of Sunshine – Happy Birthday

February 16, 2010

”…you’ll never know…
how much I love you…
Please don’t take
my Sunshine
Away…..”
Thus is the end of the song my daughter, your granddaughter loves. The song that was chosen for her by you. The song that describes her, the feeling I had for her once she was born, but never said out loud.
She is Sunshine.
And until she came [...]
