Welp, I stayed up 'til 0500 attempting to sew three pairs of matchy-matchy shorts. Finally around 0200, I woke Rob up from the couch where he was snoozing, because I was absolutely losing my mind trying to follow the damn... Read more →

We overslept and missed Chloë's bus this morning. Surprise! So I had to wake everyone up and drive her to school. At least she looked cute in her new outfit from Aunt Gail: 2. I sewed this head scarf for... Read more →

It's always crazy around here on half-days. Today and tomorrow are the last two days of school for my kids, and they are "adjusted dismissal" days. Half days. Just go on, you can say it. I had no idea what... Read more →

I fell asleep in my Bunco clothes on the couch last night while watching a little late-night TV, and I woke up late to take Chloë to the bus stop this morning. So, I didn't change clothes. In front of... Read more →

So I was just over on 5 Minutes For Mom again, and they're having some more really cool giveaways, in addition to the cookbook I posted about last night. There are some preschool computer games, and certificates for Giftventure, a... Read more →

I have no pictures of FOs (finished objects) for you today. I didn't crochet on the little Stephanie dress today. I did make two loaves of my now-famous cheesy garlicky Italiany bread, to bring to Bunco. After that, I started... Read more →

I just learned my lesson. Blech! So the other day, Rob got himself some beers and me some wine coolers. Last night, he fetched us each one. I drank about a third of mine and then fell asleep. Doesn't take... Read more →

I have no idea what that title means. It was what was fresh in my head when I woke up from my nap this afternoon. I don't remember anything about the dream but that heavily-drawled last line. I also dreamed... Read more →

When I used to work (at a paying gig, that is) and/or go to college & grad school, I was a giant ball of stress all the time. There were deadlines and exams and papers and research and, oh, the... Read more →

Welp, because I was up all night being sick to my stomach, I was pretty much worthless during the day today. I wanted to do something crafty with Sophia, but I just felt weak and not up to it. I'm... Read more →

It's 4:54 AM. I've been up all night with an apparent case of food poisoning. Lucky me. I'll spare you the details. Fin. Read more →

Today, I woke up again feeling lousy. And I had enough sleep. So there goes that correllation! I was hoping it would wear off, so I could accomplish something, but I just kept getting worse. I do think it is... Read more →

Man, it was a hot one. {Name that tune!} {Red for hot!} We woke up at 0800 today, because Chloë needed to be at the dance studio at 0915 for her ballet recital rehearsal. After I convinced Rob to drive... Read more →

Chloë has started a summer blog! If you'd like the link to her little story site, post to me in the comments! Thursday, I was granted a reprieve from all the running about. Which is good, because I didn't get... Read more →

Big sigh, y'all. Big sigh. At least I woke up this morning feeling awake and refreshed, after the previous days of excessive sleepiness. I even used my CPAP last night for the first time in... well, weeks, I believe. I... Read more →
