News flash! Apparently, we are not cool parents. Shocking, I know. Well, at least I was shocked, a little. We went to our son’s school for a show. We had our camera in tow to capture all the cuteness for posterity. The show started and we all pull out our cameras. We looked around and […] Read more…

Giving up the Goods
It’s not a secret that I had a hard time letting go of the nursing bond. It was a fantastic connection that I feel privileged to have shared with my son. When it was over I was really sad. Well, the same can be said for Kourtney Kardashian. Apparently, celebrities are just like us. She […] Read more…
Working out & the working mom
I used to be a bit of a workout-a-holic. I would faithfully suit up in my workout gear after work and hit the gym. After getting married I wanted to go straight home after work so I would get up in the mornings before work and hit the gym. Once I knew we were ready […] Read more…
Work-Life Balance?
Can someone draw me a picture of what work-life balance looks like? I mean, some sort of diagram would be lovely. I’m just saying. I don’t think I’m getting it right. I mean sometimes, sure. On a regular basis – not so much. I really wish there was some way for there to be a […] Read more…
Oprah’s peeps don’t play!
So Oprah’s people are lightweight stalkers. Not her people per se but, the subscription department at her magazine, those people mean business! I filled out an online form for a subscription to O – the Oprah magazine. I had heard so many good things about it and wanted to check it out for myself. So, […] Read more…

Whip my Hair or Behind pt. 2
So, I watched it. I watched the Oprah episode with Willow Smith co-hosting and… I can’t say that my feeling has changed so much. It was kind of cute to see her hanging out with Oprah. It seemed like she was Oprah’s visiting niece or something. Cute. I still feel like she’s a little girl […] Read more…
Teen Mom Hoopla
Having never been a teen mom, I don’t know what it’s like. Is it hard work and sacrifice or magazine covers and red carpets? Well, if you happen to be a teen mom on the MTV hit Teen Mom then your reality could be the latter. Full disclosure, I haven’t seen any of the show […] Read more…
Sheen Speaks & Speaks &…
You know that feeling you get when you’ve gone too far? You get that pit in your stomach, your temperature shoots up and you know it’s time to SHUT UP? Well, Charlie Sheen has not had that feeling! I’m guessing here. I could be way off, but methinks the verbal diarrhea on display here lately […] Read more…
Mommy – You’re in Time Out
We all know so many things change after having a baby. Your body has, ahem, a few transformations. One thing I didn’t expect to hit me so hard was no longer feeling like I had my swagger. You know, the sexy swagger. After getting my pre-pregnancy body back give or take a pound or two… […] Read more…
