We've taken on the task of trying to switch our toddler to her big girl bed from the crib. Night one did not go so well. I sat with her, I read her book, I even squeezed my toosh into the toddler bed with her. Then my husband took a crack at it. Nope...nothing would do the trick so we brought in the big guns....her brother. With her big brother in bed, she managed to stay and be happy. … [Read more...]
Sometimes I've dreamed of having the "perfect" husband...you know the tv drama kind that sweeps you off your feet at every turn, feeds you breakfast in a bed of roses, stops for spontaneous passionate kisses in the rain. Hey, a girl can dream can't she? But then reality smacks you in the face with the stench of a soiled diaper, a boiling pot of potatoes rolling over and your husband shouting, "I'm out of underwear, … [Read more...]
It's been...sheesh...almost 3 years now since I've had more than a trim done to my hair...probably closer to 7 years since I've actually had something done that entailed more than just a straight cut. It's time. Mama needs a new hair do. I have a gift card here to visit a salon and now all I need is a style and a little bit of push to get my rear in there and have it done. I've spent the last two hours virtually … [Read more...]

What an odd equation that is right? Let me explain. In our quaint little "Pleasantville" town of 8,500 people there's a nifty little ordinance that says you cannot have a pool of any size, including the super cool Sofpool's in your yard unless it is enclosed by a gated fence. You know, I really do understand the reasoning behind it, it's for the safety of other children. (note: if parents would keep an eye out for … [Read more...]
Hi, my name is Cat and I'm addicted to Mountain Dew. Yesterday I was stopped dead in my tracks when I opened the fridge to grab a drink and thought, "Good Grief! Do I really drink that much Mt. Dew?" Evidently so because when I woke up this morning the first thing I did was grab one and the bottom shelf was already empty. I walked back to my desk to find 7 empty Mountain Dew cans...all from last night. I … [Read more...]

Things Remembered offers a customizable gift for every type of father in your life from the … [Read more...]
One of the biggest compliments I've ever gotten on my blog is that they love my honesty. And that's what I'm all about, being honest about life as a woman, a wife, a mother, a friend, and even sometimes a doormat. So HONESTLY....I feel like crap today and I'm just going to spat out some random thoughts. I know your husband is suppose to not only be your partner in life, but your best friend to confide in. But I … [Read more...]
