Something sweet happened today. Very sweet. I know I told you I pressed the pause button on my weekend musings this summer, but I’ll just tell you. Real quick. So today (Thursday) is my Hudson’s last day of school. (Hudson is six years old, youngest of four boys, has Down syndrome.) The truth is, I didn’t…
Dream On Kid
Hello my friends, and a very happy June weekend to you. Got any big trips planned this summer? I’m heading to my cousin’s Milwaukee wedding in July, can’t wait… then taking Jonathan to college in Birmingham in August. Other than THAT, we’re staying local. Read on today about my Charlie’s fantastic summer dreams…. Yep, that’s…
Licking Coconut Pops All Day Long
It’s not like there’s anything wrong with sitting around and Licking Coconut Pops All Day Long. It’s not even against the law. And good thing too. Because that’s what I did all day today. (Wednesday) And they were delicious! Here it is the last week of May, just before Memorial Day weekend and I’ve got…
Tell All
Got a fun Tell All tale today. Sort of. And the joke’s on me. Remember that post Funny Tales from the Pew? Well that was one of the funnier posts here on THLG, even funnier than The Ladies Are Here , Little Experiment and Busted (Yeah Me). Funny Tales From the Pew wasn’t necessarily my funny, it was YOURS. You told the…
Snatching Joy Wherever I Can
Hey friends, chatting about Snatching Joy Wherever I can here today. Lilacs blooming in my yard, so intoxicating! It’s been a long week for me personally and also in our city of Manchester, NH. Thursday night – a lock-down on the west end – two of our city police officers shot during the night. The officers…
Tribute to the Mamas and the not Mamas
Motherhood is not for the faint of heart. And anyone who tells you different is feeding you a big fat juicy lie. So don’t even go there. Today: a Tribute to the Mamas and the Not Mamas. I’ve had mac & cheese hurled at me. Been slapped at. Stepped on. Thrown up on in the middle of…
Sparkling Little Gem
Hi friends, and a very happy weekend to you! Talking about a Sparkling Little Gem here today. Hoping things are well in your neck of the woods. I’m actually in a different neck of the woods today, just one state up and over: Vermont! It’s school vacation week in NH, and we were glad to sneak away with…
Saturday Morning Snugglebug Alarm Clock
In the distance, footsteps. Faint, intentional tiny footfalls on stair treads. By the stairs, the hallway door creaks slowly open. I don’t see, only hear. More faltering little steps, coming down the hallway now, making their way towards me. A little someone fumbles clumsily with the knob, the knob to my bedroom door. With great…
Beauty in the Mundane
Hi friends, talking about the Beauty in the Mundane today. Hello and a very happy weekend to you wherever you may be! Hopefully Spring is minding its’ manners and behaving where you are, and it’s warm and sunny with blooms. Tulips would be nice. They’re my favorite. Our week actually started off cold, wet and raw…
Lemon Poppy Seed Pancakes & Eclectic Mother’s Day Gift Ideas
Friends, Romans, countrymen! (Countrywomen too.) Lend me your ears. It’s an exciting weekend around here. First off, a Whole Foods store is opening in town. (Yay and double yay!) Second, there’s no snow in NH’s forecast this weekend. Woot woot. (But I’m not packing away the snow boots just yet, I’ve been tricked before.) Third, if you read…
