...plus one: June 2012
http://jplusone.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, June 24, 2012. Not the kind of overachieving I was hoping for. We're on Day Four of Sick House, which sounds like a PBS miniseries, and certainly is quite dramatic, but is not nearly as well-costumed. Elle managed to combine catching a virus and. Strep, which has led to several days of lousy appetite, a refusal to drink anything but water, and general crankiness. (On my part AND hers! The antibiotic took care of the strep quickly, but the virus just has to work its way through. But we're fine, we...

...plus one: October 2011

Monday, October 24, 2011. Rhetorical question of the day:. How is it possible to love someone so much, yet want nothing more than a few hours away from them? I know it's possible; I've felt that with some of my relationships in the past. "I love you! I want to smooch you! Then leave me alone! This is one of the many, many reasons I'm single.). Definite ideas of her own. Sunday night dinner was about eight blueberries, five or six yogurt puffs and around 14-16 ounces of milk. (No, I'm not exaggerating...

...plus one: September 2011

Thursday, September 29, 2011. I e-mailed someone (who had posted to a local list saying she wanted babysitting jobs) about possibly babysitting; no response. How is it so hard to respond to my e-mail and say "Sorry, not interested"? Young people these days. Get off my lawn! And there's a yoga class once a week near my office. (I don't get to the class every week, not by a long shot, but an occasional yoga class is better than no yoga at all.). The problem is- and there's always a problem, isn't there?

...plus one: December 2011
http://jplusone.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Friday, December 30, 2011. I read a lot of blogs. Some are linked over to the right in my sidebar. Many are not. I read them for a wide variety of reasons- they're interesting, or entertaining, or infuriating, or eye-opening, or or or. There are lots of reasons to read blogs. She's been blogging lately about how she is admittedly obsessed with making amazing holiday memories for her kids. She's done this in a variety of ways, most up at the level of the homemade root beer labels above. Some of th...Somed...

Sunday, August 12, 2012. I know many parents that have trouble watching the news, or reading true crime stories, or doing things like that any more. They could before they had kids. Now, with kids, it’s too hard. Every story you see about an abused child could be your child. Every teenage drug overdose could, someday, be your teenager. The kinds of things that can go horribly wrong is, honestly, too much sometimes. August 13, 2012 at 8:39 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

http://jplusone.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 25, 2012. There's a single mom out there in the SMC-verse who's trying for #2. She's hopeful and excited and I'm glad for her. I am also a jealous, seething, green-eyed bitch about it. I can disguise my envy in a number of ways- she could barely afford the first one, how the hell's she going to afford the second when she lives on the razor's edge financially as it is- but those are just fancy words to cover up the fact that I am flat-out stone-cold jealous. I am, usually, at peace with having...

Thursday, July 26, 2012. Elle's new thing: “Help! 8221; said in a very dramatic tone of voice. 8221; when it’s often something as serious as the fact that she wants someone else to pick up her crayon for her. I have a tiny Drama Mama. I have no. Idea where that comes from. None. Nope. Links to this post. Wednesday, July 25, 2012.

...plus one: November 2011
http://jplusone.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Saturday, November 19, 2011. Giving thanks ( a little early). While Elle's napping on this grey, chilly afternoon, I thought I'd pop in and update. Apologies for the lack of regular updates- it's been an incredibly busy few weeks, with colds, coughs, and developmental changes. Blogging isn't just taking a back seat; it's dragging behind the car hanging onto a rope for dear life. If you celebrate it this week, happy Thanksgiving. If you don't, have a great week. Links to this post. Sunday, November 6, 2011.
