As much as I am still loving my job, I have to admit to a few “growing pains”. When I was working nights, Hubster and I had only a couple of days together, and during the days I worked we were pretty much ships passing in the night. As cruddy as it was, it lent [...]

4 years, 1 day ago…
Last night was great, I got home from nannying and Hubster had flowers and a cute card for me Thanks to my parent’s great gift card, we went to a fabulous dinner on Queen Anne Hill in Seattle, at a restaurant called Paragon. As soon as we got the food there was no talking, it [...]

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
It seems like lately, everywhere I go people are talking about money. On blogs, at work, my family and friends… Maybe something is in the air? Maybe it’s a coincidence?

The Angry Post
Well, I knew from day one it was coming… and today it’s here. The post where I am really. Really. REALLY. Pissed Off. My husband called to move his appointment for the STD (STI? Ok, I know that’s what the kids these days are calling it, but I grew up with the “Old Skool” terminology) [...]

Me vs. The World
I realized that perhaps it’s possible I’ve been a tad defensive lately. I mean, we have tried to be intentional and only tell people that we thought would be supportive and sensitive. And for the most part, that is true. There is probably only one or two people really “pushing” for us to work this [...]

And for a change, more talking!
So, I want to apologize for lacking in replying to comments. All your comments mean the world to me, it’s just that usually what I would reply ends up being long and becoming a new post all together. Today I am super tired. It probably has to do with the fact that I feel asleep [...]

Rock Bottom
Hubster called me earlier this evening. He sounded upset and a little angry. My knee jerk reaction was to assume he had seen that I had ordered pizza Monday night via our bank account. (We have stopped eating out to conserve our savings) So I asked him what was wrong, with a bit of trepidation. [...]
