More Nancy fodder for you…
Nancy: We went out last night to buy a sketch pad because my son needs one. I guess he needs it for art class.
Nothing Fancy: Really? He needs a SKETCH PAD for ART class?
Nancy: Well, I guess so. Mumble. Mumble. Mumble. But maybe it’s for another class. I’m not sure. Mumble. [...]

Apparently Everyone Thinks Zorn Is Hot

As luck would have it, I have more fodder for you from the workplace. If you recall from this post, I typically eat lunch in the cafeteria with my friend Bill, Bill’s coworker, “Nancy” and my coworker, Mary. A quick reminder for you and an explanation for new readers…”Nancy” is a 44 year old college educated, [...]
The NFL’s Sexiest Head Coach

Jim Zorn, rookie head coach of the Washington Redskins is HOT. It’s as simple as that.
After spending the past few years looking at grandpa, Joe Gibbs on the sidelines, Coach Zorn and his hotness are a welcomed change. Even prior to Gibbs second tenure, we had the goofy Ball Coach, Steve Spurrier and let’s not forget [...]

I realized this morning that I haven’t blogged much about my coworkers. I decided that it is a MUST because the stories will certainly keep you entertained. Most of my interaction at the office centers on my good friend Bill, my coworker Mary (you learned about her in this post), and Bill’s coworker Nancy.
Just a bit [...]

The Boy enters 6th grade and his first year at middle school in just two weeks. That means lots of changes not only for The Boy, but for me too.
Last night, Hubby and I discussed these changes and I expressed to him my sadness and worry about The Boy entering middle school.
The Boy will need [...]

Last week I had TWO days (6:30 am til 4:00 pm) all to myself. That’s right. Just me. Alone. By myself. All day.
Following is the list of things I should have accomplished. In fact, I would have accomplished them if I just could have found some UMPH within myself.
Clean the bathrooms.
Vacuum the house.
Dust the house.
Clean [...]

Midlife Slices did this on her blog, so I figured I’d give it a try as well.
I am: a wife, mother, daughter, sister, sister-in-law, aunt, niece, friend, colleague and risk analyst. I am also shy, overly sensitive and sometimes stubborn. I am easy on others and too hard on myself.
I think: way too much and way [...]
Mother Of The Year?

My husband and I decided to forgo the family beach vacation plans this year. H doesn’t travel well and doesn’t sleep well in new surroundings. Hubby and I determined that a family beach vacation would be simply exhausting. Instead, last week and this week I took leave from work in order to spend quality time at home [...]
