I am old. Not because of my saggy knees, or brown spots, or my elbows that look as if they’ve been crumpled up in the back of a drawer for a few decades. No, I am old because I am horrified by what “young girls” are wearing. (plus, I refer to anyone under thirty as [...]

The Comeback Kid – The comebacks I wish I had when I needed them
Posted in Family, Humor, Laughs, Rants, tagged insults, city life, coming up with comebacks on July 8, 2010 | 3 Comments »
Here are some of the choice things said to me recently by friends and family (and one stranger): As I was on my way to the gym: “I so admire you, Nancy. I could never leave the house looking like that.” As I was entering a dressing room to try on bathing suits: “Are you [...]

I think I’m having a midlife crisis. Why else would I have cut off my hair, gone Pole Dancing and and taken a trapeze class all in the last month? Yep, that’s me on the trapeze…though not me (I mean , seriously) on the pole. I think it all started with my 7th annual 39th [...]
Busy Doing Nothing

At the end of every day, I feel like I have done nothing. Oh I’ve been busy all right. But doing what? So one day last week, I decided to keep track of my day — how could I have been so busy during all those hours when the kids were at school and have [...]
At Least my Dog Still Loves Me
Posted in Humor, Kids, Laughs, pets, tagged family dog, loving your oet, pets on March 15, 2010 | 1 Comment »
The Kids vs. The Dog I remember the olden days when my children would cry and carry on when I left the house to go out. “Don’t go Mommy! Don’t go!” And when they would rejoice at my return, running to the door to smother me with kisses….even if I had only gone downstairs to [...]
My GlaMOMous Life

True, I’m a Mom. And true, unless you’re Julia Roberts or Gwyneth Paltrow there ain’t a whole lot that’s glamorous about it. But I do have my GlaMOMous moments. Here are some recent ones. 1. Last Saturday night, hubby and I went out to dinner with (child free) friends. The time of the reservation? 9:45. [...]

So my daughter “walked in on us” the other day. Funny since (sorry hubby) it’s not like statistically speaking, there are a whole lot of chances for that to happen. (so sue me. kids. work. blog. puppy. life. oh, and swine flu. my uber- excuse for everything. ) It happens to every parent, I’m sure. [...]

Have you ever wondered what would happen if two hyphenated last namers got married? Like, let’s say Harrison VonHarrison-Lundquist married Muffy Worcester-Wolfe. (All names are completely fabricated. If anyone out there has either of those names, I’m sorry…in so many ways.) Would they name their children Maximillian and Genevieve VonHarrisonlundquist-Worcesterwolfe??? Notice the last names I’ve [...]
You Need a New Bra!

I have big boobs. That’s just a fact. And lest you think I’m bragging about it, let me tell you the truth about big boobs: after you have children, after you nurse children, after gravity takes its toll, after forty, big boobs are saggy boobs. Perky and 36DD are simply not words you hear together, [...]
