Mending Mini’s Self-Esteem

Leave a Comment / Communication, Family, Hope, Lesson Learned, Mommy Moments, Mommy-Daughter Bonding, Parenting, Relationships /

My lil Mini doesn’t dress like a girly girl. She’s not a fan of girl’s shirts. In her mind, fitted or cinched or not baggy is too tight. She prefers looser-fitting clothes. That’s just what she’s comfortable in. She is into superheroes and there aren’t many girl shirts with the Avengers or Batman or Spider-Man […]

They say time flies when you’re having fun, but time also flies when you’re miserable or sad. Even the days you’ve spent at the DMV are few when it comes to your whole life. Fifteen years ago, I said good-bye to my Mother. It feels just like it was yesterday. At times, it hurts that

Opal Apples Review

Leave a Comment / Food, Review /

Thanks to BzzAgent, I was able to try and review some Opal Apples with some coupons they sent me. They also sent me this handy-dandy cutting board as well. We love our apples! Red, green, yellow… we love them all. I’m always excited to see new brands and eager to try. I didn’t even know

Baby’s First Planner

Leave a Comment / Christmas, Mommy Moments, Mommy-Daughter Bonding, Planners, Plans /

Okay. You got me.. Mini’s not a baby. BUT this is her first planner, so it still works! Since I discovered my love of planners and printables a few years ago, Mini has yet to express an interest in any of them. When we were going over her Christmas list a few months back, she

It is VERY hard to get 4 dogs and a child to sit still! Even harder? Having them all look in the same direction at the same time! I have over 100 Christmas pics in my phone to prove this. We did some pretty amazing cards with Shutterfly, but the time and effort it took

Secret Outlast BzzCampaign

Leave a Comment / Activities, Product Testing /

Through BzzAgent, I was able to participate in a campaign for Secret Outlast Completely Clean Clear Gel deodorant. My first thought? I admit I was a bit skeptical when I received my bzzkit. Does it seriously promise 48 hours of protection? Yep. That would be truly impressive. I decided to give it a shot the

I Can’t Live Without My…

1 Comment / Blog Challenge, Coffee, NaBloPoMo /

NaBloPoMo wants to know if I have an appliance I can’t live without. I have to say, the majority of people I spoke to said they can’t live without their dishwasher. When I tell people I got rid of mine in favor of more cabinet space, they look at me like I’m crazy and some

A Book of Sorts

Leave a Comment / Blog Challenge, Books, NaBloPoMo, Plans /

NaBloPoMo wants to know if I have a book in me, what kind it is and if it’s related to my blog or not. The short answer? Yes and no. Yes, I have stories which could be put into books in my head. No, they are not related to my blog. I have several different

Leave a Comment / Blog Challenge, Humor, NaBloPoMo, Relationships /

I’ve been having a rough few weeks. Between family members going through a lot and a long to-do list, I’ve been swamped. I missed the last few NABloPoMo posts. I’m going to do a double-post of two out of the three I missed. Here goes.. A time you benefitted from the kindness of strangers.. Last
