I forgot today was Perfect Post Day. So now those of you who are coming to see my site for the first time get to read about my gross peely skin...FABULOUSBut alas, this post is NOT about me for a change but about some kick ass writing. My award goes to Girls Gone Child. This is a rockin' writer MamaGoddess living in LA with her sweetpea little guy who can tell a story like nobody's bidness......

I forgot to tell you about my sunburn.When we were at the beach a couple of weekends ago, I was sure to keep all the kids covered repeatedly in sunblock. And I remembered to put it on me, too. Except for my back. I don't know why, but I forgot my back. I think I thought my chair was covering it. I think I was not thinking.....I ended up with the worst sunburn on my back and shoulders of my LIFE.

This has been going on all week.....HURRY DANIELLE, before I throw myself off a bridge from frustration, finish the sidebar so I can move this over to my own domain!!!!OK, imagine a very cute and funny picture of Miss Monkey Moo with her pigtails and scrunchy face smile..... see, just like I told you!This morning

We escaped the triple digit heat here in Portland over the weekend by going over to the coast. It is a short drive from here and I always wish I took advantage of this more. My husband says the ocean is my church and I need to go more because it helps me stay grounded and centered in who I am. He does not love the beach so much, being a very light skinned irish descendant who does not enjoy sand

Bugaboo has been on an active learning curve lately. It is so gratifying to know she is really OK and trusting that she learns in her own time and way. Yesterday she made her first book. It was pieces of paper folded in half and then she colored pictures on each page. Then she came and "read" it to me. It made me cry, it was about her and I getting lollipops and sharing them with Miss Monkey

Labels are everywhere and we depend on them. They give us information that we believe we need to make decisions. Does this cereal have the right ingredients, does this movie have the right plotline, Does this person have the right beliefs to be my friend?Lately I have noticed my reluctance to align myself under any one specific label. About many things.This is different from my twenties and early

So I am having the most lovely Saturday and had to come share with you!There is some kind of time warp Dance Dance 80's Movie Marathon going on and having just watched Footloose with entirely too much pleasure, we are now being treated to Dirty Dancing. I made grilled cheese and am drinking a beer. Dh is napping, the Sisters are playing some insane game with paper airplanes and Boots the Monkey

I love me some movies, as you can tell. Today was free movie day at Regal Cinemas so we went and saw Curious George again b/c the Sparkles ADORE it and I adore the monkey and the music and abhor the annoying storyline, Will Farrells' glib nonsensical dialogue and worst of all Drew Barrymores whining. They should have just made the whole thing the cute little George living life in his happy fun

Dh and I went to see The Pirate Movie today. It was great, although quite disgusting in a lot of places and mostly I just need to rant about a huge judgment that I noticed while watching this movie. I really really worry about other parents who bring little kids to see movies that I deem not appropriate. My worries about all the little kids in the theater every time something totally

My husband cooks. I don't. It is just that simple. I can cook if need be, but I really truly hate it for some unknown reason. I kind of like to bake occasionally. I like watching cooking shows....I LOVE to eat! My husband likes to cook. Hurray! Some days he is too tired to cook and we tend to eat out on those days. Which happens too much for our budget, so we are trying to work on it.

I discovered this brilliant idea from Mama Tulip. She nominates someone each month and I have completely agreed with her.

OK so I am still in process of moving my blog over. Here is the address. I am having trouble and waffling. I tend to waffle, in case you didn't know. I want a really nice groovy cool looking blog unlike the regular templates. I love the creativity of decorating. I do NOT know how to code and all the crap. It confuses me. I also don't have $$ to spend to have someone else do it for me.

On my Mom's discussion group we have been talking about manners and our kids. How to teach them, what to expect etc. One of the techniques that bugs the heck out of all us what the phrase "What's the magic word?". It reminds me of a great story from my friend Wendy. Her husband taught their two kids that the magic word was "rutabagas", a hilarious word on it's own but especially deliciously funny

The Candy Orgy has ended, and in it's path has left nothing but destruction. It looks like a bomb of plastic grass, plastic buckets, cellophane and every kind of candy wrapper imaginable along with some ketchup (don't ask...toddlers getting into the fridge BAD) and giant chocolate bunny boxes went off in the living room. My leg/back was in some kind of freak attack so I went back to bed,

Sorry, I have succumbed to the nasties! Ugh.....Drama Queen had no classes today so is home helping me. Thank the Goddess and all her Stars! I am driving her and Miss Bug to preschool and the store while gagging in the car as they devour Croissants of Death from BK. Then I am going to bed to try and sleep. Except, I forgot, I can't sleep. Because I can't take any pain meds for my back/leg

The lovely intestinal viral nasties have landed in our already-crawling-with-bacteria-household.It is not pretty, people. It is like the Excorcist over here.Why is it that kids feel great and energetic, yet whiny during the day when sick. But come nightfall, all hell breaks loose and NO ONE gets any sleep. Yet the kids are bright eyed and bushy tailed the next day and I am slowly losing my ever

Miss Bugaboo is very excited about Spring this year. She has been learning her Seasons and is noticing every single flower petal as we drive or walk. She is also quite intruiged by cemetary's. She says oh so very matteroffact, "That is where the people died Mom. " Yes, I reply sunnily.Curious, she continues: "Where are the people mom? Under the grass? In the box?"Me, as nonchalant and matter of

HA as if anyone other than Melissa (HI Melissa and maddy) are missing me and my little posts here!so i survived the dentist to have my leg/back pain get worse and now I can hardly sit here at the computer even when i do get a minute to use it. Seriously it is difficult to be funny or interesting when one is in rather large amounts of pain, as I am sure most of you know. We are experiencing one

MWHAAAAAAAAADo you hear his evil laugh???I HATE the dentist. I know we all have our horror stories of going. Lots of us are scared of him.....my dentist is actually really nice and careful. Because he is afraid of ME! I am avomit-on-the-dentist-kind-of-gal.

Yes, that was my head you just saw spin completely around and fly off my shoulders.I have finally gone over the deep end. Thank Goddess my husband was here to take over.

haven't been able to get to the computer when the lovely lightening of inspiration hits. One computer to 4 adult size people does not bode well for a muse. Now that I am here, of course, NOTHING!I will come up with something fabulous this weekend, I promise. In the meantime, look at the cute kids....Last weekend dh and I took the Sisters to the Zoo.

This is my kitty, Little Murray Sparkles. I saved him at birth by forcing him onto his mommy's nipples b/c he was too stupid to open his mouth even when he was bumping right into it. Now he is worth $500 b/c something bit him on the leg but the vet had to do two xrays to see it wasn't broken. Then and only then does he decide to shave the leg and noticed the puncture marks. He couldn't have

There is so much about our society that makes me crazy. Daily I want to scream, no wonder we are all fucked up people, look what we are doing to each other and our children!! Then I cry. Then I email my husband and ask him if we can move into the wilderness to raise our kids. He reminds me I hate to do work and that would mean we would likely starve b/c I neither garden nor cook. I reply, Oh yeah

My darling Drama Queen will be 17 this month. It is shocking to me, shocking do you hear?!?!?! I am seriously not old enough to have a child this age, why it was just a few months ago that I was 17 myself. Does anyone else feel that way or am I just a total lunatic? Wait, don't answer that!This is so challenging. I adore her one minute and seriously DO NOT LIKE HER the next and most of the rest

This is what Miss Monkey said to dh a few minutes ago. Yes, we call the vaginal area yoni b/c:1.There are too many areas to define down there for girls. labia, vulva, pubis, oh my! boys just have a penis. 2.As a feminist mommy I do object to the whole idea of our womanly parts being defined by the penis. We also use vagina for the actual insides but the general area is just yoni. Back to the

I read this article last night at Borders where I ran away from the insanity.Holy smokes, look at the man. He is OLDER than me. He drags logs on the beach for exercise. I get out of bed.

For a very long time I have celebrated the Oscars. We plan, make snacks, it is like that game that happens in January everyone gets all excited about?

You know, Dora's cousin?You don't all feel like these characters are part of your family? Are you saying I let my kids watch too much TV??? GASP!They actually argue over who's boyfriend he is.

OK, my dh is usually a lovely, loving, incredibly sensitive man whom I adore. HOWEVER....when i get sick (yes, dammit, I succumbed, altho just barely a fever and a small cough, I will be FINE by tommorrow, 5 days my ass!! men are such bloody babies) Something happens that is surely related to his childhood.

I absolutely HATE feeling the way I am feeling right now. I HAVE to go to work tonite, no ifs ands or buts......AND my baby is very very sick and all she wants is to lie on me and have me near.

So it is vector central over here. Dh got some kind of mutant flu from his office and brought it home. It takes you out for a WEEK people!!!! 5 days of missed work/school????

It marks my third day alone with the two little girls, henceforth to be known as the Sparkle Sisters or individually as Bugaboo and Miss Monkey Moo Moo or whatever various strange nicknames I have
