I think I might… maybe, sorta, kinda… be a Weekly Report Dropout. Not exactly a total dropout, but at least until my reinforcement arrives and I’m not in a peak season at work, I’m going to have to do Every-other-Week-ly Reports. Now, I’m picturing a 50′s diner-café movie scene with me in a poodle skirt [...]
Break Down of "Super Mom"
September 26, 2007 by at 8:21 pm
You all know her – a SuperMom. She’s the one with the well-mannered children who are both polite and do well in school. She balances work, chores, charity, faith, family time and spouse time seemingly flawlessly.

I’m Just "Mom"
September 12, 2007 by at 10:21 am
