X — Marks the Spot

February 25, 2011

McDaddy is out of town again this week and it is quiet in our house. The boys are asleep and I’m doing my nightly blog post from the couch while watching American Idol. A week like this one is not rare for us, but it never gets easier. McDaddy is no doubt saving the world one control system at [...]

I Have A Confession

February 14, 2011

Dr. McDaddy, I have a confession. And before you ask, no, I did not max out the credit card. While the girls and I were in North Carolina over the weekend, we stopped at the Concord Mills Mall. There, we enjoyed four glorious uninterrupted hours of shopping. There was A LOT of mall and not A LOT of time, so [...]

Let It Roll

January 28, 2011

I started a post about Facebook but decided it was going to take more time than I wanted to devote right then to complete my thoughts (surprise!) so I abandoned it in favor of something a little less time consuming because I am watching American Idol and it’s hard to think clearly when I’m focused on JLo’s skin and [...]

A List Of Things

December 24, 2010

A list of things straight from my brain, because that seems easiest. 1. The boys are in the floor battling Sonic the Hedgehog against Transformers. I love having boys and I love that they are awesome playmates. 2. Which reminds me that I could have called this blog ‘From Inmates To Playmates’ and probably doubled [...]

Another Lesson Learned The Hard Way

November 16, 2010

While I will do my very best to keep this brief, it is possible that it could turn into another of my long windy tails. It all started with a cute little rocker chair that I found in a catalog at a furniture shop. Then, I found a custom fabric that I absolutely fell in love with [...]

My OCD sent me a thank you card today

November 9, 2010

I am an organizer by nature. Which is funny because my the stuff in my head is anything but organized, as is obvious if you’ve spent any amount of time around here. That’s not to say that my house is always organized and tidy. It means instead, that I just function better when things are as [...]

Thirty-Seven

November 7, 2010

Today was an ordinary drill weekend at the McResidence. McDaddy got up well before the rest of us and made his way to the West Virginia Air National Guard. He no doubt got dressed in the dark so as not to wake me. The boys and I got up, got dressed, and headed to church. [...]

He Says, She Says.

October 24, 2010

  He says, Chocolate chip cookies, please. She says, Chocolate cake with lots of icing, please. He says not very much at all. She says a lot more than she should most of the time. He says, keeping the front door open allows the heat out and the cold in (or the cold out and [...]

The One

September 23, 2010

Love. It means a lot of things to a lot of people, but for me, it is more than just a word. Back in the day when I was an awkward mouthy teenager, I remember well writing Julie K. loves [insert boy's name here] all over notebooks and diaries. At that time, I thought I knew [...]

Another Post About The Heap, er, I Mean Jeep

August 31, 2010

It’s back to school around here and that means we are back to answering to that darn alarm clock. I hate my alarm clock and I hate the back-to-the-grind schedule. We lay out clothes, pack snacks, and place the backpack right next to the door so that our morning routine goes smoothly. I am counting [...]
