  • Go Read It Today, Monday, January 7, 2008

    It seems only appropriate to start a Monday off with bad tidings, so here we go. Friends are having hard times, go see what you can do. If you then need some kind of relief, here’s a sweet one :) And after the above tornado of emotions, I promise the rest of this post will…

    I agree. I don’t think Britney Spears will be alive come 2009, and that is a tragedy. And her kids… it is all just so awful. Phew, I was worried there for a minute! Conclusion is debatable ;) Contemplation under the cork tree. Now unlike what we’re having in California today, that’s real weather. (And…

    “So definitely until Summer.” I love it. What a beautiful memory. Ha! And I think that pretty much there is no such thing as educational television. Argh, that really sucks. Solution: move to Hawaii ;) Bossy, woman-to-woman, I’ve just got to tell you… You’re a force to be reckoned with. I hope your trip is…

    Hey, did you know that ThisIsMeMaria was back? I didn’t — and check out why I missed her. I laughed! I’m her friend now! I actually laughed so hard I cried, so I guess that makes me a friend who calls you up in the middle of the night weeping. Hmmm. Yay, I can’t wait…

    OMG, ditto. Just ditto. Exactly the way I feel. Grrr, houseguests can be, um, well, let’s just say they can be “trying.” I love this energy. Bottle it and I’d buy some!

    WHOO HOO! Oh man, I’m going to cry! You have got to be kidding me. Yeah, so I’m not really sure… Yes, it is. Final analysis: I’m old too.

    Brava!! A great look into life and death in hamster world. I would have gone postal over this — I salute your restraint. Snort. “…and thought, we are lucky.” Beautiful.

    Anyone have good, helpful stories about AML Leukemia? Please go share them with Jill Asher of the Silicon Valley Moms Blog. Her mother was just diagnosed and she needs some hope and help from you wonderful blog folks.

    A very reasonable request. I love the idea of backup pants. Are they for going in reverse? “Extended travel with very small children is challenging.” (Better you than me, Karrie :) Well. Since you asked so nicely. This made me cry.

    “…right on track…” I’m exhaling just a little bit. Fingers crossed (almost to the snapping point) for the next couple of weeks. Ditto. I’m not a fan of celebrity-bashing. Just because they’re in the public eye doesn’t mean they aren’t people. There’s a Santa backlash? Give me a break, people. What about the magic of…

    Oh man, I have no idea. What say you? It’s beautiful when we get to see that our kids have actually learned something from watching and listening to us. “Perhaps it’s just the fear of losing more.” Picking your battles is very important, but standing firm is the hard part. That‘s what it’s all about.

    Truth in advertising. Snort, that was easy. As far as I’m concerned, this is the best way to lose ever! Yes ;) A fantastic description of marriage. And motherhood. Yay!! New baby! Congrats to Frema! 11 pounds 4 ounces is either a typo, or your qualification for some sort of medal. Ouch.

    Bossy’s young daughter just had part of her mouth torn off by a dog. I don’t even know what to say. If you do, please head over there. “What the hell has happened to people?” Indeed. Think there’s no reason to link to Dooce or Amalah anymore? Like they’re all famous and no longer worth…

  • Go Read It Today, Thursday, December 13, 2007

    Snort — she said “momhole” and I can’t stop snickering! Worth a read if you have gone far down the infertility path (raises hand) or want to see some of what that’s like. I too felt like once I got to the well-established pregnancy part it would all somehow be different. Yeah… not so much.…

    I’m glad WTM is open to a room mate, because I’m going to be there next. I am reasonably sure that this time of year can be greatly enhanced with liberal doses of caffeine. Early and often. That’s the only way to get through until Spring! My kids also believe they are the boss of…

    I like her style. I wish I had been on the other end (so to speak) of this phone call. Snort! “Oh No” indeed.

  • Go Read It Today, Monday, December 10, 2007

    I’m now in the position of desperately needing to know what a “more secure location” for underwear is. I also want to know how you can kiss before you date… IMO, Cleatus is lucky to be alive! Snort! That’s my kind of humor. Are you the owner of malfunctioning housing forms? Go buck up Amalah,…

    Mrs. Flinger is starting a new series devoted to you! Check back to learn how to increase your blog traffic. She’s a giver with infectious enthusiasm, and I love her! I’ve always just thought my kids were mind readers, but I guess blog reader is another good guess. Whatever it is, they always seem to…

    “My first “Merry Christmas” of the season and a heartfelt one too.” … Be sure to follow her … Part of being a mom is being able to make a spur of the moment revision … OMG, now I’m so hungry … I’ve seen this Christmas movie and it is cute but WEIRD!

    So I can see you’re wondering what’s so “special” exactly about this GRIT post… Well, it is the final one! (I know!) Some of you like “Go Read It Today,” and while no one has come right out and said it, I know some of you like it less than my regular posts. Now there’s…

    One way to help those flooded in western Washington. This package isn’t even for me, and I can’t wait to find out what’s in it! … Faith and hope :) … Mrs. F has a new gig! … Good to know. Snort! … A good question … Wow! … “It was a safety issue.”
