Sniff sniff

So the sleep specialist decided to take a gander in my nose and told me that I have polyps (stop eating right now). He gave me a script to see an ENT and I finally went last week. Good news? No polyps. Bad news? I have swollen turbinates. I don’t know what that means either.

Why stay-at-home-mothers drink

Today’s installment: wrist injuries.
SAHMs drink when an artery would’ve been punctured had the wound site been 1/16″ to the right.


27 pounds

Twenty-seven pounds is what I have lost since mid-February. That’s equivalent to what, a toddler? If you cut a toddler’s worth of mass off of your body, would someone notice? Apparently not if you know me. How can you not notice? Or, if you’ve noticed, why are you afraid to ask me if I’ve lost [...]


Why stay-at-home-mothers drink

Me: What do you want for breakfast?
3 year-old:  (says nothing)
Me: Hey, Iz, what do you want for breakfast?
3 year-old: (mumbles)
Me: Oh, nothing? Okay . . .
3 year-old: (quietly) Goldfish
Me: What?
3 year-old: Goldfish
Me: Goldfish? No. You can have cereal.
3 year-old: No! Goldfish!
Me: No. You can have cereal.
3 year-old: NO! GOLDFISH!
Me: No. You.can.have.cereal. Cereal or nothing.
3 year-old: [...]

I wish wish wish wish wish

I say that a lot in my head. I wish. I wish this and I wish that. What I wish today is that I feel not so depressed. I think the stress is coming to a head and for the first time in a long time (excluding when Liesl talks about dying), I had tears [...]


Speed limit or merely a suggestion?

Today was an unusual day as far as driving was concerned. We had a lot of running around to do between going to the dealer, running to, oh, three different Target stores (don’t ask) and taking the girls to dinner. I don’t know if this was an especially annoying day or if some people truly [...]


Dillweed

When my brother moved I did the natural thing and asked him for his new address and phone number. Most normal people would give it to you, right? Not my brother. He lives really close to my mom and we have his cell phone number but every time I’ve asked him for his address he [...]


1 in 54

That’s the amount of homes in foreclosure in my state. 1 in 54–up 30% from last year. The country’s average? 1 in 250-something (or something close to it). This scares me for good reason. I don’t know if it’s so wise to build because of the housing market and that makes me sad. I was [...]


Richard Gere wanted in India

You won’t be seeing Richard Gere in any Bollywood movies anytime soon since a warrant has been issued for his arrest in India. It seems Gere was seen kissing Bollywood actress and UK Celebrity Big Brother winner, Shilpa Shetty, on the cheek in what was there considered an obscene kiss at an AIDS awareness event [...]
