I’m 33 today. I have no idea how this happened. But it might be contagious, so everyone take a step back.

It’s just easier to call you stupid
From now on, the titles are all Family Guy quotes because my brain is far to exhausted to be original. My body intuitively knows that “school is out”. 17 years (or so) of having 3 months leisure is ingrained into my system. Everything in me is shutting down – putting on shorts, watching the blue…
Read MoreWelcome to the wait
Not much to report in the circus. It feels as if we’ve pulled into a sidetrack waiting for others to pass by as we wait. The weekend? Meh. Normal. We had the “inspection” Saturday morning – we all went to the Wilcoxon’s for about an hour and half (Sonya and Kim exercised, the kids and…

Thank you to Sha for passing me the musical baton. I shall try my best to hold tight (and yes, this is somewhat redundant as it nearly exactly mirros what I have on Wiseacre). For those of you who don’t know what it is; I believe it was started by Keegan Jones at The Big…

A message for mothers everywhere — you are worth celebrating. Let your family or friends pamper you. Your worth is not measured in money, or accomplishments, or titles, or…
Read MoreWelcome to our home
So, we were up late last night with Tony (again, let me reiterate, the best realtor) making our offering, signing our name and initials, proposing when too close and when to move (and had several moments of diversion and joking). So, today there was one counter offer, one final approval on our part and the…
Read MoreNo turning back
There’s not turning back. The offer is “out there” now. Better still – our current house isn’t even on the market. Nope. Not even ready to show. We are idiots, but have this insane faith that it will sell fast (after we get things up to par to show — like clean our clutter, minimize,…
