The other day, I prepared spaghetti for dinner. As I was waiting for the big stockpot of water to boil, I wrested open the box of “Thin Spaghetti” and placed it on the counter. Being a mom, I then rushed off to accomplish a billion other jobs in the meantime. A minute or two later, [...]

Aaaaaaaaaaand another Friday rolls around. I am seriously missing the Christmas vacation, friends. Like the sugar crash after a delectable meal of chocolate and sweet coffee, I’m seriously mourning those late holiday mornings, the lounging around all day, staying up late with the kids and giggling over Looney Tunes videos and goofy books….

And it smells GREAT. There are four seasons to a year. You’d think that every season should last 3 months, right? I can’t think of any place on this earth where that happens. Here in Upstate New York, we have 5-6 months of winter, 1 month of spring, 4 months of summer, and 1 month [...]

We took Livvy and the Yorkies to a public rabies clinic last week. There were literally hundreds of animals there. We saw a ferret, some cats and a billion dogs.

Ever get those weeks where everything seems “off,” even though nothing really has happened? That’s been my week so far. My schedule was interrupted by the holiday.
