It’s 3:00 am and I hear the rustle of him stirring before he has even opened his mouth to call me. I pull myself from the sleep haze, grasp my hands together and stretch them over my head with a tired groan. It’s time. I hear his first squawk and I roll over to DanO. [...]

88 remember how we have a dog? (another giveaway!)
{update: the giveaway is now closed and the winner will be announced tomorrow/saturday morning!} O, poor Pearl. (That’s our dog’s name, by the way.)

Jun 10, 2010 in Life With The Os
I was sitting in a coffee shop during my ‘time off’ last weekend just blogging and enjoying the fact that no one was pulling on my pants leg and signing “up”, when a young woman practically hollered at me from across the cafe: “I love your hair pin!” she shouted. “O! Thanks!” “Where’d you get [...]

May 20, 2010 in Life With The Os
DanO was in a car accident last Friday. Was it Friday? I don’t know. All of the days blend together (stay at home mom says what?). He was stopped at a red light when a (bad) accident occurred in the intersection in front of him and one of the cars in that accident then hit [...]
30 not my picnic
Apr 25, 2010 in Life With The Os, Not Me Monday

It turned out to be a near-disaster complete success. I spent the afternoon planning the menu, purchasing the (organic and wholesome) ingredients, then slaving over their [...]
