I have a vivid memory when I was small ofmy mom deciding to take my cousin and I to Chuck.E.Cheese for the afternoon as a treat. I was just learning to read at the time and as we pull into our destination, I see two words in big letters hanging in the windows. From the backseat I shout “MOM!!! What does For Lease mean…

As a teenager a few of my friends worked at a local Chuck.E.Cheese and they once payed me $20 to dress up like the rat, I mean mouse for a birthday party

TY ! We also have a beloved penguin named Gwenie too. 

Fun !!! Nature’s big mystery 

First off, hope they get you all straightened out and on the mend. Second, glad you are heading home as there truly is no place like home after being poked & prodded during a hospital stay. Third, I also swear that first shower home is amazing. Can you tell I’ve spent some time in ones lol ?

As always I hope that this finds everyone well. Quiet week here as the tiny human & I mainly hung out in our yard. My husband works insane hours so I feel like the two of us have become hermits hiding in our little green oasis. But as we try to navigate living our lives in this new world I am still anxious about…

My father has always had the perfect eye for color & fashion soooooo when I became a teenager my mother deemed it would be him to help me pick out dresses for formal wear. She felt it would save us from arguments over what was appropriate. And it became our thing. Every single important dress in my life I have ever…

Mine too. I went out food shopping for the first time in over 3 months yesterday and I pretty much ran through the aisles grabbing everything on out list in a panic. Usually my husband does the shopping as I have Crohn’s and it compromises my immune system but he was stuck working on his truck on his one day off. I…

After much debate, we decided to let the tiny human stay over at my parents for the weekend. We know that our summer will not be what we had wanted it to be. There will still be our beach trips like this week. But as we feel uncomfortable being in crowds, we won’t be visiting the boardwalk or going on amusements rides…

I totally admit to looking forward to rainy days so we can do something crafty

Spot on with your recap of Dawson’s Creek. I watched for the whole ride being the exact target audience at the time. Every thing you said just reinforces how much I always thought Dawson was a douche. Also when I rewatched later on as a binge watch I was bummed to find they were not using the same music in episodes as…

Ah yes definitely whatever their little hearts desire. Ours got to finally eat a Reese’s Peanut Butter cup that he longed for at the end. And when it’s time, you’ll know. My thoughts are with you during this most heartbreaking ordeal. Hugs. 

Ah. That’s a good idea for keeping the squirrels away. I suspect Chip & Dale as the culprits as see those little chipmunks running gleefully through my plants

TY. And yes she is quite good despite her love for tiny human socks and toys that don’t belong to her. 

Wow ! I’ve always wanted to try having a lemon tree. They just seem very exotic to me for some reason. Good luck with it, sounds like it’s definitely rebounding from it’s neglect. And sorry about the plant that didn’t come back. Was winter more harsh than usual by you this past season ? Maybe that’s what did it ....…

Excellent idea ... I will definitely do this. 

First off I am so very sorry. It is never easy when our beloved animals get sick, especially like this. My condolences to you. I hope that you can make your pup as comfortable as possible in their remaining days. Sadly we’ve dealt with cancer with two of our dogs. Our first was 10 years old and suddenly developed a…

Gorgeous !!! I love them and have always wanted to plant some BUT won’t as I have a tiny human and fur baby that both put everything in their mouths and IIRC those are toxic if ingested

No worries, totally get it ... I’m on the old side with a young kid sooooo the “back in my day” is for reals lol so much so I remember Jim Henson voicing characters
