Weather, you have some 'splainin to do. Don't you know November is in four days?! I had to turn the AIR ON today. 

But thanks for letting my kids enjoy you a little while longer. I keep hearing you aren't going to be so generous this winter, you selfish turd.

Worst thing I heard today

We are preparing to put our house on the market within the next six months to a year, so the process of decluttering and boosting the functionality of the space available is in full swing. Mostly out of necessity as we have 3 kids who seem to collect crap by the minute, and a 3 bedroom home which I KNOW is fine, but we definitely have some needs that our home doesn't provide anymore. My grandmother is currently visiting and since the weather was shitty, I "suggested" to my husband that we execute my new furniture- and toy-moving plans, so we rearranged the (finished) basement and brought down a lot of the kid's toys.  We have moved toys to and from the basement several times a year, each year, always changing our minds about where we want the stupid train table to be or where it makes the most sense to have the kids play. Our home office (computer, printer, bookcase) is also down there, as well as an extra bed, the husband's makeshift man cave (a ...

It's Been a Minute

Its been 3 years since I've opened this platform up and took the dive in. A LOT has happened in these past few years, including something I said I wouldn't do- stop writing. Maybe the 3-year itch is a thing? It was right around this time 3 years ago that I conceived of this blog, and stopped posting all together. I think I was nervous about it being a failure, having any potential long-form writing pieces heavily critiqued, and also just not having the time or patience to stick with it. I do lose motivation easily. Its one of, if not the, character flaw I hate the most in myself. I try to work on it all the time, but it gets overwhelming. Speaking of being overwhelmed...while it may seem contradictory, the feeling of being overwhelmed with all my feelings and flaws hidden and not being handled has weighed on me quite a bit, especially the last 6 months. I'm learning and growing and trying to be better- at everything. Competitiveness is my biggest strength and probabl...

Summer to winter coats. Is this a thing?

So now I'll tell you how to dress your kids. It's been a weird weather year, right? It has hit 80 degrees F here in New Jersey the month. In case you forgot, its OCTOBER. The boys have hit a growth spurt, and even K's hand-me-downs aren't really fitting A; seasonally, their growth is not lining up. Since we go from melting to freezing in the span of a day, I'm predicting a warmer winter. I'll buy you a Dogfish Head Sea Quench Ale if I'm wrong. We finally succumbed to the dark side, aka Amazon Prime, so now I try to purchase everything through Prime. For several reasons, but mostly because we are too busy to go shopping when we need to. And I'm a lazy ma, not going to lie. The stores we prefer are a good 30 minutes away, and during the week I don't really have time or the energy to load all 3 up and spend 3 hours trying to find a coat. Weekends are even crazier, especially if I'm going it alone. After combing through Amazon, I've settl...
