Monday, March 23rd, 2009Spring break has arrived for many school agers, my daughters starts today actually. With the economy the way it is and money tight all around, I thought I’d give some thought on some cheap Spring Break activities for school agers. These are if you plan to stay home and not have a destination [...]
Valentines Day For All Mommies
Wednesday, February 11th, 2009As I got older, I either loved or hated the day, depending on if I had a boyfriend at the time or not. Even sometimes when I had a boyfriend I hated the day! Now, as a married Mommie, I view the day as much different than I used to…
Resolutions
Saturday, December 27th, 2008With Christmas over and all those festivities behind us, we all look to the new year. What will we change, what will we work towards, all of the above. So here are the top New Years resolutions…which ones will Mommie be doing?
Merry Christmas to All!
Wednesday, December 24th, 2008I figured I’d post now, as I won’t be able to for the rest of today or tomorrow. Well, Christmas is finally here (Christmas Eve at least). All the presents are wrapped, we baked yesterday (oh, and all got exposed to strep again, lovely), family got into town last night and we’re ready to start our holiday.
From Mrs. Claus to Mrs. Grinch
Sunday, December 21st, 2008Last year something seemed to change in me, I wasn’t as excited. The season flew by and I didn’t bake anything but break apart cookies. Our house was just cluttered, not seasonal. It just didn’t feel the same. This year, well, I just want the stupid holiday to be over…
Why He’s Not Getting An iPhone
Saturday, December 13th, 2008My husband is the type of man that wants the coolest, most expensive gadgets, no matter what. He’s always been that way. I always tell him he can’t have A, B or C, basically because there isn’t room in our budget for his toy tastes. So for Christmas this year, all he really wants is an iPhone. I’m not caving this year and here’s why…
Lighting Dilema
Monday, December 1st, 2008Well, we got all of our Christmas decorations basically up. But I’ve discovered that my husband and I seem to be at odds with the lights inside the home. He wants our Christmas tree on all the time, I figure we should turn it off if no one is in the room to [...]
Why Black Friday Sucks!
Friday, November 28th, 2008I’ve never participated in black Friday, it always seemed silly freaky to me. People waking up early to fight crowds, ugh. This year I decided to do it though, my first time. Walmart’s prices couldn’t be beat, they were great, so I figured I’d go before the sale started and get some [...]
Happy Thanksgiving!
Thursday, November 27th, 2008Turkey day is officially here! I hope everyone has a healthy and happy Thanksgiving and that everyone gets to eat their fill today!
Here’s a link to some hotline numbers for the turkey cooking: http://www.pepperfool.com/recipes/holidays/turkeyhotline.html. I had to call them yesterday, as my turkey was still a brick. Ya, we had to [...]
Mommie’s Christmas List
Tuesday, November 25th, 2008It’s just not as easy these days to write a Christmas list. This is just a quick one that perhaps my husband will watch.
When I was a kid, that was a ball to make a Christmas list! You could open up a toy catalog and go crazy! MEGA Brands can help you [...]
