White, that is.
Who knew that with advanced age, your kids would also advance in funniness? And, okay, maybe weirdness.
Laylee has been bedecked in Snow White attire for the past 2 weeks. All day, every day. Nighttimes too. I see no problem with this as long as she’s willing to wear pants under her gown when [...]

May I direct your attention to - the new girl.
“Why?” you ask.
Okay. I will tell you.
I’m not sure how she found my site but she emailed me with Blogger questions.
When I asked her to send me her URL, she responded that it was www.shutupnoway.blogspot.com .
That was not a joke.
She calls her kids “Thing 1″ and [...]

Enough of the serious stuff. Let’s get down to what you really come here to read about - my hair.
Karen and my hair dresser and a bunch of other people have suggested using a blow dryer and round brush to transform the mullet-ness of the layers. I cackle.
Me wielding a round brush and blow dryer [...]

Someone recently told me that I’m not as funny via email as I am in my blog. Well, sometimes I’m not as funny in my blog as I am in my blog. So here goes one of “those” posts.
Very Mom’s post yesterday got me thinking about trusted advisors.
A while back we were refinancing [...]

Magoo now has two teeth. The first one sprouted on the bottom and the other is kitty-corner on the top. He has been accused in the past of being a “punkin head” but now I think he looks more like a jack-o-lantern.
Yesterday we were driving along and out of nowhere:
Laylee: My fish named Jack swam [...]

We love the Mexican restaurant in our hood. The food is decent, the service is good and it is ridiculously kid-friendly. (I can’t use the word ridiculous anymore without thinking of my brother who suddenly started saying, “It was so diculous, it was RI-diculous.” Cracks me up in an I-must-have-been-a-14-year-old-boy-in-another-life sort of way)
We often leave [...]

Today I got the sweetest parking spot in the history of ever at the grocery store. (No, I did not park in the handicapped parking. How rude of you to ask! Bad hair is not considered a mobility impairment.)
It was the uber-dy bestest parking spot in all the land and there we were, me, Vinny [...]

First of all, I have been FORBODDEN by my husband to post a picture of the mullet, which he says is not truly a mullet. He thinks it looks okay, it will grow out, and posting an image that I think is unflattering, to last forever and ever in cyberspace is just a bad idea.
This [...]

If you wake up on a Saturday morning and your hair has been cut in a mullet, you just know. You don’t have to look in the mirror. You may not even need to run your fingers through your hair. You just feel different.
You may feel the need to play a couple of periods of [...]

I have an aunt who’s fighting hard to kick Cancer’s butt and send it home crying to its mother. She became my aunt when I married Dan 4 years ago and I instantly loved her. She just felt like my family. She is an encourager, a finder-outer, someone who wants to know everything that’s going [...]
