So, we’ve been on this lifestyle change this past year, and we have been “mehhh….” about it. I’m talking No Sugars No Grains (NSNG), Vinnie Tortorich’s way of eating (WOE). NSNG is just what is says – no sugar and no grains in the diet. I’ve been NSNG-ish for the past few years now; enjoying…

It’s goal time. I’ve got a few things I want to get done, and some are a bit of a stretch: Finish that baby blanket – it’s been slowly coming together when Little Man naps. If I try to crochet when he’s awake, he comes over and tries to grab the crochet hook, pulls the…

Everyone is scared of something. Clowns, heights, failure, the unknown…that is the beauty of fear.

I took Little Man to the library for story time today, and we did a trip to “the big city” with Granma on Wednesday. I always have to giggle a little on the inside when we go out, because I always get the question from the grandparents (if they are with us) “Do you have…

We had finished storytime, and the kids were all sitting at the table, colouring their duck pictures, when the librarian got all excited, pointed to the window, and yelled “It’s snowing!” The other mother and I jumped up and looked out, giddy with the expectation of snowflakes, while the kids just kept on with their…

I often say I was born in the wrong era. I prefer men to be gentlemanly, and hold open doors for me, pull back my chair, walk on the road-side of the sidewalk; pretty much the opposite of what a modern woman is supposed to want. I have no problem working, but I would much…

This is all I ever hear from the television anymore. Granted, it is not my choice of news to listen to, but it is just one singular source of news, and it is always the same thing. Orange Man Bad! Impeach! Orange Man Tweet! Impeach! It is a vicious cycle, and it is never-ending. From…
