For me, it’s my lipstick.

how not to lose your kids when you’re out

When my kids were younger, I couldn’t do much serious shopping when I was out with them. I had to watch them like hawks, well, pretty much. I’ve seen first-hand how parents lost their kids in the crowd and that desperate look on their faces is enough to scare the daylights out of anyone.
Sometimes we tend to get carried away with looking at stuff and we leave the kids in their strollers, or the toddlers to wander off on their own. There are a few things you can do though to avoid losing your kids.
(1) Always keep your kids in sight.
(2) Hold your child by the hand to keep them with you all the time.
(3) Have your wandering toddler on a leash.
(4) If you’re out with more than one kid, do a regular headcount to ensure everyone’s accounted for before moving on. Better yet, put an older sibling in charge of headcounts.
(5) Do a show and tell of an agreed location so your kids know where to go in case you get separated.

Yes, yes, we’ve gone without sleep for 20 hours so I don’t know if I’m still talking straight. I’m starting to see Oreos floating across the wall. I reach out with one hand 
, they vanish before my very eyes.
So what are you seeing on your wall?

A couple of weeks ago, I started learning French. It’s a language that holds a certain mystique for me. It sounds so deliciously flowery I decided that I would spend a few minutes every night to pick it up.
Bon jour!
Well, actually I got past saying a tout à l’heure when I dropped the girls off at school on Lundi before I head off to the gym. And I was hoping that by Août, I would je comprends un peu Français. But I don’t *sobs* .

Our friend started out with these two beagles. They’re adorable the way they wobble their butts when they walk. Sadly one of them went missing after a while. To this day, he’s never been found and no one knows what happened to him.
If you’ve ever had a beloved pet go missing, you’ll want to know they’re safe and not being abused. What can we do to have that peace of mind?
The ASPCA works hard to protect pets and provide them a good home. You can pledge your support here. Yes, I’m begging 
, I need more sponsors!!
those things I do

I don’t know why some people look at me funny when they see me wearing one earring. Well, it so happens I only have ONE side of that gold stud earring which is why I only wear one side.
I wear one blue glove and one pink glove when driving so I won’t get my arms toasted. Why is that so strange to some people?
I think mismatches are cool, or hot, or whatever. Why is it odd that I don’t limit myself to the obvious?
