Thought everybody would be anxious to hear the update from my friend whose son experienced the horrible bullying/sexual assault incident at his school. Thanks to everybody who wrote and gave such thoughtful advice. ******** Here is the follow-up, and please let your readers know how much I appreciate their input and support. This isn’t quite…
My daughter isn’t in Girl Scouts, and I’m not gonna lie — it’s because I’m scared. Over the years, I’ve heard tale of cookie selling hell, and I feel like my adrenal glands are already shot as is. The last thing I need is people being pissed at me for being a bad Cookie Mom…
I’m so psyched (I know, I sound like a teenager from 1985, but I am indeed psyched) to be introducing you to Lindy. She’s a mom from my neck of the woods, only she’s one of the cool kids who gets to live in Tahoe (there I go with the high school thing again). Apparently…
I’m not sure how I got myself into this, but some “friends” (and I use that term loosely because, honestly, what kind of real friends would subject me to this kind of pain), have included me in a weekly fiction writing group. Seriously though, I’m honored and touched to be part of this. These are…
I saw this picture in our local paper yesterday. I laughed it off, but think I may have had a bit of a PTSD panic attack. My guess is that this lady either watched Psycho or took some sort of anger management/pumpkin carving class right before she came to work. When Elfie was 4-years-old, I…
I’ve had moments when I’ve wondered if naming this blog “World’s Worst Moms” was really the best idea. Tonight, not so much. The kids are currently sleeping next to me on the floor in sleeping bags because they’re too freaked out to stay in their room. Thanks to my horrible case of Honest Mommy Syndrome,…
So once again, the fabulous Kelly DeBie of DeBie Hive swoops in with a story from her always unbelievable life. Unbelievable only because truth is stranger than fiction. And when you have four kids and a husband, that’s a lot of material to work with. ****** A few months ago, my husband got a new…
So I had to pass on this Worst Mom Moment that my friend, Heidi Ayarbe, posted to Facebook about her daughter (“A”). Incidentally, Heidi’s a kick-ass, young adult fiction writer. Her latest book is Wanted. ****** Awkward elevator moment at the clinic: *semi-full elevator* A: *turns to guy next to us* What are you here…
If you lurk around this blog or our Facebook page, no doubt you’ve seen Kelly DeBie of DeBie Hive. When you get into her blog (which you should), you’ll quickly find out that she and her family should have a punch card for the emergency room. In this Worst Mom Moment, unfortunately it’s the mighty Kelly herself…
Ginger from Spicey Mom is back with a Worst Mom Moment from the dog days of summer. Ginger and I have been commiserating because both got puppies at the same time, and our lives have been…”exciting” ever since. Week 18 in puppyville and I still not sure I like this guy. He still chews,…
So come on in. I made some Arnold Palmers. And a nice jello salad...
