A Flaky Friday in February

February 13, 2010

Awww…how sweet! You’re back again! Hope you enjoy your visit with the Peapod Squad!It doesn’t snow often in Georgia. And when it does, it’s a BIG deal. Our city doesn’t have snow plows or salt trucks. Our residents don’t have snow shovels or blowers. We shut down for snow…or even the real threat of snow. [...]

Blissdom ‘10 or How I Smiled for 5 Days

February 10, 2010

How do you describe an experience that leaves you downright giddy? And I’m not just talking about the goofy grin meeting the other love of my life put on my face. No, I’m talking about a rediscovery of why I started blogging in the first place.
Many folks in my “real world” have asked me why [...]

And Now the Reality Sets In

February 2, 2010

This is the dance I do.
I need to get away. I need time for myself. I want to be with other grownups. I want to network.
So? I have chance to do these things. I’m excited. I’m nervous. I’m sad.
Because at the end of the day, I really don’t like being away from my family. Though [...]

The Post That Will Likely Jinx Us

February 1, 2010

Shhh. I’m going to whisper this. Listen carefully.
We are all well.
Can you even believe it? All three kids are well and almost finished with their antibiotics. I’m midway through my second round and have coughed significantly less today. My ruptured/blistered eardrum is far less painful (i.e. no longer requiring narcotics at bedtime). Hubby managed [...]

Happy Birthday, Peapod Squad

January 20, 2010

I wonder if I will always cry on the eve of your birthday?
There are just so many overwhelming emotions still really close to the surface, I suppose. It was the most terrifying experience of my life and it led to the purest of joys. That jarring juxtaposition continues to yank my heart to and fro.
I [...]

Unilazy…Where Have you Been all my Life?

January 12, 2010
unilazy

I see an impassioned takeover of the Snuggie market on the horizon.

I’m not kidding. I want a Unilazy. I would truly live in this thing. It even has a zipper-drop for potty breaks. Yep. Amazing. The designers thought of everything.
You think the peapod squad would be embarrassed for me to pick them up from pre-k [...]

I Can Now Proudly Add “Camera Repairwoman” to my Resume

January 12, 2010
harvest fence

I hate being a quitter, so it has bugged me to no end that I didn’t keep up with BD365. I was off to such a fantastic start with my stunning photography skills (I really have none but can do some fierce editing with Picnik…LOVE IT). See? Is this not completely gorgeous?

And there could have [...]

Just Another Reason I’m SUPER Excited About Blissdom!!

January 11, 2010

Harry Connick, Jr. finally gets to meet the love of his life. I know…he’ll be devastated to learn I’ve married someone else. And he’ll be pea green with envy when he sees pictures of my beautiful children. He’s really missed out on so much.
Until then, I’ll watch and re-watch this video. My favorite song from [...]

KISS 2010 Hello

January 10, 2010
2010

I’m aware that I’m a wee bit late on the Happy New Year thing, but I’m declaring a RESET on the start of 2010. Without going into details, just suffice it to say the year did NOT start well for us. Rather than dwelling on all that, we decided to say the new year JUST [...]
