This post is not my big Fall wardrobe reveal. This post is merely to tell you that more big changes are coming for me. Changes that I’m scared to commit to, but know are necessary. I had mentioned in a previous post that I wasn’t sure whether I’d be doing a capsule wardrobe, a categorized…
Let’s take a break from all the health talk and let me tell you about our weekend where there was very little health involved! Look at this guy. My handsome husband. He gets better with age, it’s so unfair. I would go anywhere with him. He’s seriously the coolest. And the most perfect person in…
Oh the post you’ve all been waiting for! What magical hex did this girl use to lose 19 pounds all of a sudden?? I, much like you, wish it was as simple as magic. But there’s no pill or finger snapping that will make it happen. That being said, if you are in the right…
This is kind of long, but if you are interested, I want to start at the beginning and tell you guys a little about why I decided to cut back on sugar and start a healthier lifestyle. I have been cheerfully chubby or pleasantly plump most of my adult life. A BMI calculator would have…
Dear Sugar, This is hard for me to say. So I’ll just be very honest with you. It’s time you and I parted ways. Listen, you were good while things lasted. Great, even! I felt like you were what kept me going during the day. I felt like you were my reward for the challenges…
And here’s the part where I tell you my big time quarantine goals fell through the cracks pretty quickly. But… but… it’s only been four days! You know what? Sometimes I forget who we are dealing with here. Ooooh I am not good at quarantine. Before he got sick, Stevie was in the middle of an upswing.…
Even though Stevie is on the mend, and I’m fairly certain the E. coli has run it’s 10-day course, the Department of Health has instructed us to keep him out of school and away from other kids until they can clear him. Two consecutive clean stool samples is the way to do that. We delightfully…
Greetings from my couch! Since I’ve basically been wearing pajamas all week and I have no photos or confessions that don’t involve kid poop, I thought I’d write some thoughts on the upcoming season and my plans for a Fall wardrobe. I use the term “plan” very loosely, as there isn’t one. But let’s talk…
I can’t sleep. It’s mostly dark in our room but a hint of nightlight shines from the bathroom. We don’t usually keep a nightlight on. But during the height of Stevie’s sickness, we were taking him to the bathroom 15+ times throughout the night. He is in our bed and has his back towards me…
I woke up this morning feeling like I got hit by a truck. So I can’t even begin to imagine how Stevie feels. This poor kid. His sickies started on Thursday night with a mild case of the runs. Hey, it happens to the best of us. So I started him on the BRAT diet…
