dear mr. president
This is “Dear Mr. President” by Pink. It’s been out for over a year now, but I’m only just finding it. I just want to say AMEN TO THAT! AMEN!!! And kudos to her, for being ballsy in a time when people are afraid to …

my thighs growing by the minute
Sweets from my valentine. (note the grubby little hand going for my chocolates 🙂 ) If this week could be defined in one word, that word would be CHOCOLATE! Even before Valentine’s Day, my dear husband brought home FOUR boxes of Girl Scout cookies. He …
pictures just for Meaghan
This post is dedicated to Meaghan, who has been begging for new pictures for a very long time. Taking pictures of a one year-old is not an easy job to do. My camera is cheap and SLOW! By the time the lens has focused, Dylan …
