If It’s Important To You, Then It Is To Me Too

Aren’t these men in this picture adorable? They are at the grocery store buying their Mother’s Day treats. They have let the moms sleep in, they have probably taken care of the grocery shopping for the week. They are making their wives feel special and appreciated. Did you have a great Mother’s Day or do you want to kill your husband for not making your feel special and important?

Scott and I are on the same page now with Mother’s Day. I think it took a good … Continue Reading »

How To Talk To Your Kids About Sex

Got a call from my friend recently. She informed me that my daughter told her daughter what sex was. ”It’s when a guy and a girl make out under the covers” Julia explained to her friend. I was of course a little embarrassed, as I recalled that Julia may have learned that when I was watching a rerun of Sex and The City, edited for E channel. Note to self, don’t let Julia watch Samantha scenes.

Then, yesterday, my girlfriend received a text from a friend, “thanking” her for … Continue Reading »

New Spring in My Step

So I talked yesterday about how my visit to New York City gave me a little spring in my step. http://dontwearsweats.com/have-i-lost-my-edge/. That got me thinking, if I am going to be walking around like a New Yorker, I need cute Spring and Summer shoes.

Now, I like to wear heels a lot, … Continue Reading »

Cancer (June 22-July 23): You will have to do something you don’t want to do, simply because someone else has the power to make you. Do it with a smile (it will make it easier) but also start looking for ways to regain your independence.

No matter what month you were born, this applies to you.

As a mother, a wife, a daugter, a daughter-in-law, a friend, this horoscope covers … Continue Reading »

I Want To Live Like A Ski Bum

So sad. My spring vacation came and went. It seems like as soon as you come back from vacation, you are two days back into the swing of things and you forget how relaxed you were.

Whenever I go skiing, I love watching all the young kids working the lifts. They are so frickin happy. They are smiling, not a … Continue Reading »

I created this blog as a virtual girls night out. Some of my favorite times are with my girlfriends, sitting around laughing and sharing. Making fun of each other, ourselves, our lives.

Husbands Are People Too

I want to let you in on a disagreement my husband and I had recently. We live in Florida and Scott has decided to take up tennis. A few lessons here and there, and he is starting to enjoy himself. He makes some afternoon games and is very happy when he comes home.

Then one day he tells me that he is going to play Friday night with three other guys. They will play at around 4:30 and maybe grab a couple of drinks after. “Great I say”. One Friday … Continue Reading »
