My husband and I created new rules for our relationship last month. We’ve always had rules. When you tend towards high drama and using people to feel better about yourself, you need rules to have a healthy relationship. Or, at least, we do. We came up with our first rule while sitting outside the house [...]

A good news update and giant band aid at the bottom! I have a skin thing on my face near my eye. I first noticed it towards the end of my second pregnancy. Because getting weird pigmentation skin things during pregnancy is just one of the many havocs our hormones wreak, I only offhandedly mentioned [...]

Scott and I have a hard time leaving our children alone with anyone. We hate it — both leaving them and how difficult it is for us. It’s not that we believe we are the greatest parents on Earth. It’s that we know our own shortcomings. And we know other people’s problems are not often [...]

Get Well Note

1 ) Discovering that Big Al’s Sports called me over the weekend. 2 ) Watching Dexter for the first time. And by the first time, I mean eleven episodes. I laughed, I cried, I tried not to relate. 3 ) Realizing that I had worn the same clothing for 36 hours straight. And then realizing [...]

Bad Parent

I’m sitting in a waiting room. Or fighting with a dental hygienist. My son is having dental surgery. Twice this month. We went to the dentist because you are supposed to bring your kids to the dentist. I was just checking the we-are-doctors-who-follow-reasonable-recommendations box with my oldest. Our dentist saw spots, took x-rays and found [...]

The argument goes that staying at home with our children isn’t anti-feminist. It doesn’t undo the decades of fighting and marching and bra-burning. The argument continues that what feminism grants us is choice. The movement gives us the CHOICE whether to stay-at-home or work versus before second wave feminism, we HAD to stay home. I [...]

Motherhood has changed me. And not in all those mushy ways. In bizarre unthinkable muffin-top ways. LIKE I NOW SUFFER FROM VERTIGO. Seriously. I have never been afraid of heights. EVER. I can look over ledges. Heck, I could STAND on ledges and jump into lakes. I go on roller coasters. I’ve been rock climbing [...]

Last week, I was interviewed by Meredith at the (Over) Thinking Mom.  She does a great podcast series, and more importantly, she has an AWESOME radio voice of which I am completely jealous. This blogcast (blog + podcast. she really is brilliant.) is called The Overeducated Stay at Home Mom, and is based on these [...]
