I've been getting headaches lately, which is a new, weird physical experience. I did have a migraine one time, when I was pregnant, but that didn't feel like a regular headache. That felt more like someone filled the space inside my skull with the ball-pit at Chuck E Cheese's. Even my hangovers lack headaches. Sure, I've been known to barf-out my guts into the kitchen sink. BUT WHO HASN'T? ...Continue Reading »
This one's from the old site. It’s a photo I took back in January. Of course, the branches were bare back then. It wasn't until a few weeks ago that these same branches began budding their little tender leaves. So, I was wrong. I guess winter did end.
I spent a ridiculous amount of time setting up a BuenoBaby Facebook page yesterday morning. What should have been a click, click here and a click, click there turned into…Do I need to link this page to my personal Facebook account…How do I post from my site…What's this doodad button…What's that doodad button…Is there a class I should have taken to do this? Let me just reach inside my computer here, and shake some of these wires to see if that helps.
Anyway, the "Fan Page" over on Facebook is done. Fist pump. So, if you'd like to join me on Facebook you can click here, or search "BuenoBaby" from your Facebook account page.
I've already invited my family and friends who are on Facebook. Some of them have become fans, or "Liked," the new BuenoBaby Fan Page, others have not. Which I understand, BuenoBaby isn't for everyone. Anyway, I'm almost done cutting out their traitorous faces from my photo albums.
When the kids are bored and grumbling about how there's nothing to do, I tell them to go play with the lifeless ...Continue Reading »
I just got back from the gym after a two week hiatus. I'd quit going a couple of weeks ago due to my seasonal allergies [that and a pinch of laziness]. My allergies have been kicking ass and taking names, and I don't see them easing up anytime soon. And since spending my days in a hermetically sealed bubble isn't an option, I decided it was time to face the dreaded elliptical trainer. Albeit with one functioning nostril.
Strangely, I felt great during my workout, all those endorphins and blood pumping around. And now I know I'm veering dangerously close to sounding like one of those women who live in their black stretchy work-out pants. STOP IT, STOP IT Meredith! And, just to remind myself never to write anything like this again, I promise to do jumping jacks in high heels until my toes bleed.
Here's another post from the old site. Re-entering these posts wasn't the party I'd anticipated. Woe is me.
Moving back to Wisconsin was supposed to have been temporary. We'd planned on finding some place else wonderful to live, but, well you know, the weather here…you just can't beat snow in April! ...Continue Reading »
I pulled this post over from the old site earlier today. It took me a while to edit and tweak this one since my diagnosed "Essential Tremor" was acting up. Which essentially means the tips of my fingers are having a hard time making contact with the letters on my keyboard.
So, when I instruct my pointy finger to push the letter "H" it does whatever the hell else it wants. Typing is turning out to be a lot like taking care of my kids.
Anyway, I got it up, and jkhere it is...
My brother put the pier in last weekend. So we're ready to enjoy the lake ...Continue Reading »
