Ever have one of those weekends where you’re left needing to kick yourself in the arse? Well…not so much Saturday…Saturday was actually a day where I got plenty accomplished but yesterday…well, maybe we should refer to it as “not-so-funday Sunday.” Continue reading It’s a jungle out there…
I’ve struggled with this question for quite some time. Am I a “mom blogger” when I can’t blog about being a mom? The fact is, as the kids get older…I’m a little less useful than I used to be. My Continue reading Am I a mom-blogger?
I just had a piece of cheesecake and here is the route I took: 1. Got off couch (1/2 squat) 2. Got cake from the fridge (walk 16 feet) 3. Got fork from the cabinet (walk 4 feet) 4. Went back Continue reading Cheesecake shuffle…
As you’re aware…if you’ve been following along…I’m in MAJOR Spring Cleaning mode after tucking things out-of-the-way for the last two years and pretending things are in order when really…they weren’t! Did you know that if your home is in chaos…chances Continue reading Looking for something?
Three years ago tomorrow I began this blog after much encouragement from many people who believed I should “tell my story.” So…I wrote. And I wrote. And five hundred and fifty-seven posts later…I’m still not done. I’ve blogged my way Continue reading Three years and counting…
It’s March Break and I’ve done absolutely nothing! Well…unless you count a hockey tournament, daily drives back and forth to volleyball camp that have me getting out of bed at a ridiculous hour, a few trips to the rink for Continue reading March Break…
I broke my toe in a fly hole leaving me to wonder why the front hole in a pair of boxers is called a fly. Leaving you to wonder what my toe was doing inside one? The answer is simple. Continue reading Fly on my toe…

The first time I connected with MT&L I was 21 years old. Which was…ummmm…about ten years ago now. OK…more like 15. Alright…whatever…it was 23 years ago but who’s counting! I was working at Granite Springs Golf Club and at the Continue reading MT&L…
I’m in a wee creative slump so I thought I’d troll a few blogs to get a little inspiration. First stop, one of my favorite bloggers LouLou. (If you aren’t following her and want some fabulous entertainment, click on the Continue reading 48 Questions, 48 Answers…
I was rushed… a tub full of bubbles had me relaxing far longer than I should have and the clock glared the time. I had to get to the rink for Spiderman’s game! Sweater, scarf, socks, boots, coat, mitts… where Continue reading B-Ohhhhh….
I did it!! OK…for those of you who don’t have a blog and could care less about how I moved my Blogger posts to WordPress and why…this is not the post for you!! (I’ll write something more exciting later! Actually, Continue reading 14 Steps from Blogger to WordPress…
Clowns to the left of me. Jokers to the right. For as long as I can remember, I’ve told my kids they’re “The Best.” It’s possible I’m setting them up for failure but it’s my hope that they see the Continue reading Being my best…
TWO, not one but TWO “Fashion Blogs” placed before me in The Coast’s “Best of Halifax” awards…but yup, I came THIRD!!! I enjoy reading both of the blogs and I was heard telling a friend that I really, really hoped Continue reading Best of Halifax…
I have, 100%, without a doubt, killed my blogger template! It’s possible I know just enough HTML and CSS to be completely and utterly dangerous yet not enough to be perfectly proficient. Yet! I’m well aware that what you see Continue reading Under construction…
There’s a crap-load of things that I’m grateful for. Like bully beef hash. Not that it’s on the top of my list or anything but oddly, it’s the first thing that came to mind. To be honest, I’m not sure Continue reading Thankful…
Where have I been? Oh, well… there’s the classroom, the barn, the gym and the car. I’ve been cleaning out the garage, washing floors, spending time doing homework and skyping The Tall Blond in France. On top of that, there’s Continue reading Where have I been…
