Things YOU’LL wish you didn’t know

It’s been almost a year since I gave birth.
When will I stop peeing myself when I sneeze?
Argh.

Boo!

I know halloween is long past, but seeing as my new favourite show is Ghost Hunters, and another one I’ve just discovered this weekend was Celebrity Ghost Stories (LOVED Joan Rivers), I feel like sharing my own ghost stories.
BUT… it’s 10:50pm and I’ve got to get O for his dream feed (which I’m going to [...]

Stop the presses!

So, outside of being Oscar’s mom and doing Oscar things and posting it all here… I have another life.
Ok, so it’s not like this totally cool alter-ego or anything (I ain’t no Batman), well, it kinda is.
To me.
Anyway, I have an Administrative Services business.  I’ve recently started back to work on a regular basis (other [...]

World Aids Day

Just a quick something before I head out for the day enjoying the rare Vancouver sunshine (hey, it usually rains until May!)… if you’re on twitter, end your tweets with the #red hashtag.  Show your support for World Aids Day today!

Engage With Grace

Last Thanksgiving weekend, many of us bloggers participated in the first documented “blog rally” to promote Engage With Grace – a movement aimed at having all of us understand and communicate our end-of-life wishes.

My house is the perfect size. If you’re a Smurf.

Wow, talk about small spaces getting smaller.
As Oscar grows and develops, we are losing major real estate.
I have a 2200 sq. ft house.  We’ve made the basement into a suite and it’s rented out.  Which leaves us with 1100 sq. feet.  1 bathroom and two bedrooms.  Our living/dining/entrance is all pretty much one big room.
Needless to say, [...]

Attached at the hip

I like having Oscar with me.  I mean, I LOVE having the little guy with me. 
At. All. Times. 
I SO enjoy spending time with him.  It’s not a burden, it’s a pleasure. When he’s happy, fussy, awake, palyful, tired, cranky… it doesn’t matter. 
I simply love having my son with me.
And so when I go shopping and I [...]

Secret Stash of Posts.

Wow, do I ever not have time to write these days.  But here are a few of the things in my Drafts folder:

Feelings about being pretty much attached at the hip with a little 8-month old 24/7.  No movies, no concerts, none of that right now.
A couple of posts on things I’ve found that I [...]

Do Re Mi

All I have to share with you today is music class is nothing more than a $55 playgroup.
But my God it’s fun for Oscar.
