Whether it was the effects of too much hard work, the plaster dust, or just because we’re a silly family, the kids and I were yukking it up over the weekend about Chuck Norris. We’re demolishing the downstairs of our house right now….. and at the end of a very, very exhausting Friday, we were [...]

You may see sponsored posts a TAD more frequently this week, with fewer posts filled with my inane charming wit and personality (although I do try to inject it into the sponsored posts as well). That’s because we are gutting the downstairs of my home this week. And I’m exhausted. And I don’t *feel* like [...]

The worst part of educating your children at home is that someone is always in the bathroom, all day long. I get a lot of spam comments (a LOT). The spam used to be filled with crude, obscene crap and links; but for the past few months, I’ve been seeing a lot of “I’m glad [...]

Sorry, guys. My posts have been light and pretty boring for a week, I know. Last week I had a billion deadlines for some articles, then the flu came knocking at my door… well, it barged right in, actually. Most unwelcome. So that’s why I’ve been blogging about boring old Bluetooth and credit cards. *gag* [...]

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of wellnessdaily.com. All opinions are 100% mine. I love that word “wellness.” Makes me want to go out and eat something green and do 50 push ups. Well, eat something green, anyway. Seriously: we try to eat as natural as possible. I garden all summer [...]
