November 21, 2009

No post yesterday.  I didn’t feel up to it. Today, however, is pretty great.  I had this huge outpouring of support from my “unattainable dreams” post, it that has made the biggest difference.  I can’t even begin to say.  I want to reply to every single comment, and that would be silly to do in comments (I don’t even know… Read More

My Entirely Unattainable Dream.

My Entirely Unattainable Dream.

November 19, 2009

I sit here and sit here staring at a blank screen.  I do not have writers block.  When I decide to write something down, I get it out no matter what. I sit here and stare at this blank screen because there are problems in my household, and I aim to write about them.  However, I know what kind of… Read More

A Dark Day for Mommy.

A Dark Day for Mommy.

November 12, 2009

I had one of those days yesterday. I’m sure you’ve heard of them.  You know, the ones where a stay-at-home mom can’t get anything right?  Where she doesn’t shower, get dressed, or leave the house?  It’s true, the rumors you’ve heard – it DOES happen. There was a melt-down around 11 am.  Ronan was exhausted.  He was crawling around the… Read More

Finding my Groove, and Sleep Saga Continued.

November 9, 2009

I think I’m starting to hit my groove at work.  That doesn’t mean I’m starting to LIKE it any more, but really that I’m getting used to the whole she-bang.  It’s about par for the course, it usually takes me about 6 months at a new job to not feel like a total idiot.  It took a little longer this… Read More

On Sleep, and Co-Sleeping, and NOT Sleeping.

On Sleep, and Co-Sleeping, and NOT Sleeping.

November 5, 2009

So taken for granted when you’re getting it.  Seriously. Let’s talk sleeping arrangements.  First, this is a judgement free zone.  I make the choices I make because I feel they are the best for ME and for Ronan.  I do not ever look down upon or belittle another mother for the choices she has made for her family.  I expect… Read More

How to Title a Blog.

October 22, 2009

I really have no clue.  Today, I wanted to write about how I’m fighting the urge to just sit and watch all of my shows on Hulu, and ignore all other responsibilities.  (Modern Family!  Glee!  House!)  Really, does cleaning the house, showering and doing laundry sound HALF as awesome?! Woah, sleep issues.  Ronan had a late nap yesterday.  Nanny let… Read More
