A blog about mommyhood and becoming a loser

In Honor of the Holiday

I am going to take a two week break from blogging.  Yes, a full two weeks.  And, yes, I do realize that this means that I will be suddenly full of ideas of things to write about and lots of funny things will happen.  I didn’t say I would take a break from writing, just [...]

Tears of the Saints

Right now I am listening to a song by Leeland called Tears of the Saints and am feeling very moved. It is one of those songs that touches my spirit and I love to listen to it repeatedly. Here is what the group leader, Leeland Mooring, said about the song in the liner [...]

What The Hail?

This past weekend I experienced something I have never experienced. Actually, there was more than one thing.
First, Saturday, Hubby was getting ready for a music gig. His first in a really long time, at least that’s what it’s felt like. Anywho, he was getting ready to leave and we noticed some dark [...]

Shopping, Anyone?

Here’s a great one for you.  My nephew, Little M, is the cutest little guy.  His talk is adorable.  He has that sweet little boy voice that utters any two-word phrase and makes you go, “Aww,” and repeat what he says.  Anyways, my mother-in-law passed along this hilarious story the other day.

Oh, that’s not [...]

Mommyhood

Mommyhood is similar to motherhood, a more casual approach to parenting.  Mommyhood includes the following:

cuddling the cutest kid(s) on earth
delaying washing of fingerprints on windows, glass and everything else because you realize that one day, there will be none to wash off
watching a toddler dress himself in mismatched [...]

Losering

Losering is the act of becoming a loser.  Here are some examples of losering acts:

Exercising regularly
Eating a healthy diet
Taking a walk or bicycle ride
Stretching far-too-tight muscles
Not eating and entire gallon of ice cream when the numbers on the scale lie to you.  Oh, yes, they do.
