Shopping, A Play in Three Acts

Act 1 Today we’re getting Christmas pictures done. Since the girls have 3 Grandmas, I rarely need to buy clothes for them. But when I do I usually go to the children’s consignment shops Katerpillar Kids and The Children’s Cottage. One, it’s cheaper and two, it’s environmentally friendly reusing clothes (and in reality these places [...]

A Lesson On Cute Cloth Diapers

So we’ve been using cloth diaper for our girls for 10 months. It’s environmental friendly and a lot cheaper than disposables (although they still get those for babysitting). When I first decided to switch I didn’t know where to start. Most people when they think of cloth diapers think of the rectangle white ones that [...]

Time to Dispense With the “Ohhs” and “Ahhs”

That’s right I have finally completed the girl’s Christmas present. I think I spent 50 hours or so over the course of 6 weeks making it. I don’t think I’ll make them something again for a very long time. As I’m imagining they’ll play with them for 3.42 minutes and then go to the next [...]

Porn For Women

(As soon as I finish the laundry, I’ll do the grocery shopping. And I’ll take the kids with me so you can relax) Normally I’ve got a husband who does about 1/3 of the housework. The past couple of weeks not so much. It’s really annoying and aggravating (I’m not exactly sure how women do [...]
