Put some Clothes On!

Posted in Beauty, Fashion, Laughs, Rants, tagged , , on July 9, 2010 | Leave a Comment »

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 , , 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 [...]

(Pole Dancing + Trapeze) x major hair-cut = Midlife Crisis

Posted in Aging, Beauty, Exercise, Health, Humor, Laughs, tagged , , , , , , , on May 14, 2010 | 2 Comments »

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 , , 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

Posted in Laughs, Parenting, Working Mom, tagged , , , on February 9, 2010 | 2 Comments »

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.  [...]

Walked In On…

Posted in Family, Humor, Husbands, Kids, Laughs, Uncategorized, tagged , , on January 27, 2010 | 7 Comments »

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. [...]

Book Giveaway: See Mom Run

Posted in Family, Humor, Husbands, Laughs, Marriage, giveaway, tagged , , , on January 25, 2010 | 33 Comments »

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!

Posted in Beauty, Fashion, Laughs, Reviews, Shopping, tagged , , , on January 14, 2010 | 10 Comments »

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, [...]

Wii For Old Folks? You mean my excuse doesn’t work anymore?

Posted in Exercise, Laughs, Rants, tagged , , on January 12, 2010 | 1 Comment »

For quite some time now, I’ve been blaming my total lack of video-gaming ability on my age.  I am so bad at Wii that according to my Wii Fit, I should be stumbling all over the place, barely able to walk and talk on my cell phone at the same time. But I don’t really [...]
