So I was at the Cintas Center yesterday for a Leadership Program for work…my department facilitates it. George was there for his movie…working on a scene that was basically of Ryan Gosling in a director’s chair all day (his stand-in wore jeans, not the full suit). George was just in jeans, black long-sleeve and white sneakers.

Whatcha Might Not Know…Infertility
What some of you might not know is that Andy and I dealt with infertility for 2 years on our journey to become parents. Seriously. We may have 3 kids now…and back-to-back so I’m sure I look like Fertile Myrtle, but it took a long time coming. That said, I truly never take being a
10K Tuesday – Two Steps Forward, One Step Back
This past week has NOT been a good 10K training week. Instead of 5 days on and 2 rest days, it was reversed…5 days off the treadmill and only 2 days on. And those days were not great. A friend reminded me that training schedules never include sick days, sick kid days, busy work days, trips,
Happy "Effin’" Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day is over-rated, full of disappointment, and now just a lot of WORK. Obviously, cupid’s arrow missed me this year. I’ve never real been a big fan of Valentine’s Day…and I’m happily in LOVE. See, I don’t want flowers, candy, cards, etc. on Valentine’s Day…I want them EVERYDAY! Well, not everyday…just any other
The Learning Tower – This Saturday’s Shout-Out
In 2009, my dad got us a Learning Tower for Christmas (per request). I saw it on a friend’s blog and instantly fell in love with the idea of a kitchen stool that would NEVER tip over and still get my kids to the counter. We ordered ours from Kiddin’ Around and were extremely pleased with
OSU Headband and Hair Bow
A friend of mine is going to a birthday party this weekend and asked me to make a gift. So, here’s a cute accessory for a 4-year old OSU fan: And a little something for spring: I really hope she likes them…and thanks for the order!
Enough About Nutmeg…I Get It Now
I had lunch with a good friend yesterday who I’ll call Nutmeg for this post (an inside joke). I’ve only known Nutmeg for a few years, but our kids are similar ages and she lives nearby and is a friend of a friend and we’ve found quite a bit of similarities between us… Nutmeg used
Whatcha Might Not Know…Housecleaning
So I’m totally coming clean this week and fessing up…I hire someone to clean my house. (This is when most of you start hating me.) Weekly. (This is when the rest of you hate me and those of you from before hate me even more.) I’m not saying this to brag or one-up any of you. Now that
10K Tuesday – Future Cyclist?
So, what do you think…future cyclist or dancer? I’m slowly building up my miles. I’m still at a 12-minute pace, but up to 2 miles this week. I also got to spend another hour on the treadmill over the weekend. I caught up on The Good Wife, The Bachelor and Big Love. I also watched a
Texting Any Punctuation is an Act of God
Today’s news is filled with Verizon and the iPhone and the fact that Verizon is no longer taking orders for the popular phone and there are many conspiracy theories about the story. There are gadgets everywhere you look. And I love gadgets – why else would I have been super-thrilled to get a document scanner
A Week of Crafting
I had the chance to do a few custom orders this week for some ladies at work (super THANKS). Some special Valentine’s and St. Patrick’s Day headbands along with some small clippies and two very cute Minnie Mouse hair bows. Stella wanted to try out the Minnie Mouse bow on one of her headbands…guess what
