Right Place, Right Time

You know the old adage about being in the right place at the right time?  Well, turns out there’s a bit of truth to it.  At least for me there was.  You see, the job I have now is temporary.  It’s been a long-term temporary job, but nonetheless temporary.  Our office is closing in the [...]

And the Oscar Goes To…

Okay, so maybe not the Oscars, but to a kid any award or recognition is just as important.  Well, today, Felicity’s teacher passed out awards to the kids since it was the last day of school.  She had mentioned to me which award she as giving Felicity — Excellence in Reading, but she didn’t mention [...]

Silence Isn’t Always Golden

Okay, here it goes.  I’m going to say it.  There is a problem with my precious little boy.  For some reason, he’s not talking.  Literally.  A child his age, 32 months, should have a vocabulary of about 150 words.  Nick has one.  The only discernable word he utters is, “Uh oh.”  He makes other vocalizations, mostly grunts, [...]

Victory!!

Okay, it’s not official yet, but it looks like I’m going to get my traffic ticket dismissed.  Ever since I sent in my Trial By Written Declaration form, I’ve been visiting the court’s web site daily to check the docket for any updates.  I’ve even gone so far as to keep track of the progress [...]

Congratulations To My Brother!

Today I became an aunt again.  My brother, Ken, and his lovely wife, Kristy, are the proud parents of a brand new baby girl, Anna Charlotte.  If only I wasn’t across the continent, so I could see her in person — although Ken’s done a good job getting lots of pictures of her.  It’s Ken’s [...]

I’m So Proud Of You, Mommy!

I was sitting on the couch the other night, when out of nowhere, Chase comes up to me, gives me the biggest hug, and says, “I’m so proud of you, Mommy!  You’re being such a good listener.”  I don’t exactly know what or who I was listening to, but it was just what I needed after a long [...]

Look Ma, I’m On The Computer!

Ever since Nick noticed his picture while I was viewing my blog about a month ago, he has become fascinated with seeing his picture on it.  Whenever I turn the laptop on now, he comes over, plops himself on my lap, and waits for me to pull up the blog.  Then he points to each picture [...]

Busy Miss Mommy

Funny how something as silly as work and life in general can keep you from doing the important things in life, like me posting on my blog!  Not too much happening on this end.  Just more of the same old, same old.  I’ve been working longer hours this past week (don’t I seem to say that most [...]

My Songbird Spreads Her Wings

For those of you who read my previous post about Felicity trying out for the Glee Club, today the list of kids who were selected was posted outside of Felicity’s classroom.  When I picked Felicity up after school, I took a look at the list and guess whose name I saw on it?  YES, FELICITY MADE THE GLEE [...]

Part-Time Full-Time Working Mommy

I don’t have what you would call an ordinary job.  I don’t work regular hours or for just one company.  Since I am basically self-employed, the amount of work I do varies each month, on a project by project basis.  The upside to this is that I have a fairly flexible schedule.  As long as [...]
