Jelly Shoes

Firsts. I’m notorious for having a poor memory, but there are some firsts I do remember.  If I remember it, I can recall more of the feeling or environment, I am quite well known for missing the details. Here’s an example, one of my previous posts had a picture of my kids sitting outside a…

School Clothes

A military helicopter was shot down in Afghanistan and our country lost valuable, precious, incredibly brave lives. The stock market continues to approach the drain and I’m not quite sure any of the suits walking around Washington know what they’re doing. As important as these issues are, and believe me they are important, my daughter…

Pretty Panties

Victoria’s Secret has new panties and as of late, I appear to have an addiction to the pretty things that go under my clothes.  I apologize if this is too much information, but get over it. I have what the lovely women at VS call a bra and panty “wardrobe” and yes, when they come…

Newspaper Shift

Maggie has to make a dress out of recycled materials for Earth Day.  It’s optional, but of course she wants to participate and not just participate, she wants to have the best dress there.  She’s already designed the dress and believe me if she had access to all the materials needed, she’d have already made…

Halter Top

You know when you hear people say, “She’s a blast!” or “She can really let loose and party!”?  Yeah, that’s not me. I’d like to think I’m fun to be around, but I’m not a blast.  I don’t drink beer from a bottle, I don’t even like beer for that matter.  I have recently developed…
