Lightening Up for the Summer

April 28, 2012

Not only am I trying to get my body lighter for summer, I also decided to let my hair in on the fun. But first, let me just thank all of you for your words of support and great advice on my dead metabolism post. I’m still trying to get back to everyone who emailed, [...]

Who Stole My Metabolism?

April 27, 2012

I’ve really been trying to whip my ass into shape lately. I’d always heard the hushed whispers about what happens to your body when you hit your mid-30s, but I didn’t want to believe them.

Time to Seek Medical Attention?

April 25, 2012

As you may recall, I have an almost-full-time job outside of the home (let’s not bring Hillary Rosen and Ann Romney into this, OK?).

Since almost the day she was born, E. has had one nickname in our family — Monkey. She was one of those very clingy babies. If she wasn’t in my arms, she wasn’t happy. From day 1, she always reminded me of the monkeys we saw in Costa Rica who hung to their mommies’ necks [...]

Are We Overscheduled Already?

April 17, 2012

It all started innocently enough. Last summer, E. was prancing around the house all the time on her tippy toes and kept saying she wanted to be a ballerina. You all even helped talk me into my decision to sign her up for dance lessons. And it was love at first jeté. Since August, we’ve [...]
