Hope all the most kick ass mamas I know have had a great Mother's Day!

It's been a very long weekend, with more time spent working than home, so I spent most of today with my little one and some family. Ithras has been at work too, and has training all next week. Hoping to sneak in a little visit with him tonight after the...

Had some crazy storms here last night, though we were not hit anywhere near as badly as other areas. The damage was limited to some wind damage that was mostly limited to downed trees and limbs. Those in the direct path of the storm weren't so lucky. I heard Catoosa County, GA was looking for volunteers to help sift through debris and look for survivors...

It's been a crazy few weeks. Went to Savannah for a friend's wedding and got to go to the beach with the hubs for our anniversary (9 years? seriously? I do not feel old enough to have been with anyone for almost a decade).

Our car finally kicked the bucket on the way home, but managed to buy a much nicer replacement for less than...

Pretty much moved into the new place, at least to the point of being able to live there. Still need to get the hub's desk and computer set up and get books and movies and all that here (though I've been surprised how little I've noticed the lack of screen media here, except my computer, unless someone mentions it). I love how neat and clean...

Making progress towards getting into the new place. I have figured out what my minimum requirements are to be willing to move in and we've almost met them. I need:
-Clean (my requirements here might be a wee bit obsessive, but I'm trying to be open minded and understanding that this will be relative as long as there is active construction going on in some...

Haven't updated for awhile, so here goes one.

Hubs and I are expecting kiddo number two. This pregnancy is infinitely easier than last time around and I'm feeling great, looking forward to a quick, easy delivery, and hoping his/her big sister handles the adjustment well.

Working on a garden plan for this year. We're about to move, again, so that will involve building new beds...

The funny thing about being a really tall girl: if I lose a few pounds I get told I should be a model, but if I gain a few it becomes "You should play basketball".

It just keeps snowing!

I'm so tired from moving stuff, but there is a huge bunch of packing material on my bed. I'm honestly a bit tempted to take my pillow and just curl up on the floor, but I suspect that is one of the few ways I could actually make my back hurt noticeably more.

On the other hand, there is no longer a nice steady drizzle...

While I could make a long list of the things I hate about living downtown in Savannah during St. Patty's Day week, nothing quite measures up to the level of fun that is going out for half an hour and coming back to find some asshole tourist has parked in my spot. And no, I don't mean my spot on the street where it's public...
