Apparently I Need to Dust Off My Bible

The Land of Nod in my opinion is when children fall asleep, where life is a dreamworld. It’s suppose to be a sweet, peaceful, secure place (ie my parent’s house). Steven “educated” me on this one. Wikipedia it if you’d like to know the Bible version (BTW my definition is also in wikipedia).
In conclusion, [...]

Yes.. there are Idiots in Texas too

So… Yesterday, I got involved in a lunch debate about this new Health plan. The majority of the people I work with are former military and most of them pretty strong Republicans. One woman a few desks down stood up and just started to rant on us, “You know the Cold [...]

Visiting the Land of Nod in 5 Months and Birth Days

My leave has been approved for December and we will be in Washington Dec 19-29th. Woohoo! It will have been 15 months since the girls and I have been back. 5 years since Steven’s been there. Get to see Grandma and Grandpa, Uncles and Aunties, and cousins. We get to see Lynda and meet Brett. [...]

Instead of the Rambling Post I Wrote Last Week

Sometimes this motherhood thing seems really, really hard. I wrote a post last week about how the bad days were currently outnumbering the good days and motherhood is harder now than it was 20 years ago. I didn’t publish it because it seemed quite depressing and pathetic (which is exactly how I felt).
Then I [...]

Awesomest Gun Control Shirt Ever!

I saw this shirt and just about choked on my tongue.  Awesome shirt and major cool points to any woman who will wear it (although guys can wear it too!).
I am only linking it though, so as to not offend those with gentle sensibilities.  Click over and take a look!

I went poopy in the potty, and now I have a tummy ache, and Daddy is a horrible daddy

So I was doing my “poopy dance”, as Dad calls it, and  he noticed, and told me to “go poopy in the potty”.  Now I know better than to poopy on the floor or in the bed, and I hold it as long as I can in my diaper, but why would I want to [...]

ants in my laptop

I have a little 10″ netbook that I put Mac operating system on, and I like it well enough.  Seporah and Felicity and I went down to the park, where they played and I watched them and wrote some things down for school on my laptop.  For the last couple of weeks I have been [...]

A Hundred Years Ago Our Skin Would Have Been the Handsomest Out There

So we’re white. And I’m not just talking caucasian white (although we are that too). I’m talking about do-you-people-live-in-a-cave white. Which is really unfair considering we live in Hawaii. When we go to Washington to visit (where it rains 9 out of 10 days) we’re still whiter than everyone else. Here where whites are actually [...]

I Really Don’t Know Where This Candy Stash Is

One year olds aren’t bound by the same social stigmas that adults are. Case in point: Mommy finds Felicity eating found candy (where does she keep on finding this stuff). Mommy decides that Felicity has had way too much candy in the last couple of days and therefore takes it away and throws it in [...]

Ahhhh, Doesn’t It Look So Much Nicer

I made Steven change it. I wanted to do a bunch of girlie colors with birds on trees, but Steven kinda nixed that, and I’m sure if Jason was right here he would have as well. Sarah would have been on my side, but since I’m guessing Sarah knows about as much as I do [...]
