PARTY FOUL
October 31, 2009

I  think I may officially be kicked off  the Room Mother Committee.
I told you the drama over making the Ghost cookies for my sons class.  Well, today I had to bring the cookies to the Halloween Party and let the kids decorate them.
I thought I had it all figured out, icing, chocolate chips, sprinkles… all kinds [...]

BOTCHED BAKING
October 30, 2009

Okay, most of you have heard me say, I’M NOT THE BEST COOK.
I’M NOT!  I admit it!
 It’s not that I can’t do it, it’s just that I don’t really like to and for the most part I don’t.
But I signed up to be a Room Mom for my sons Kindergarten class and my job for [...]

BLASTED ON YOUTUBE
October 28, 2009

Okay, I planned on writing about the great weekend I had with my boys and at the Bengals game (WOW!  What a great game!  That’s the team we’ve been waiting for!)  but when I saw this… I had to share it with you.  Tonight one of the guys on our production crew says, “Hey, did you [...]

NOT AN AUCTIONEER
October 22, 2009

I thought my job was tough… Not anymore!
Tonight I  was at an award’s banquet in Covington at the Metropolitan Club.  We were honoring the President of NKU and his wife.    They’re great people who do a lot for NKU and for our community and countless organizations.
But I was in charge of hosting the Auction to raise money.  OH [...]

GIRL POWER
October 20, 2009

IT’S OFFICIAL!
I’m going to have to either try for a girl or adopt one.  Tonight, I went to visit my grandma at the hospital.    She had to have a procedure at Good Sam.  So, I rush over during my dinner break to see her.  Luckily, it wasn’t anything serious.  They weren’t even going to keep [...]

WARDROBE MALFUNCTION
October 17, 2009

IT HAPPENED AGAIN!
I’m not sure if I’m losing my mind, subconsciously trying to boost ratings (lol!) or just ready for the weekend..   But once again, I’m running errands with the boys in the morning and I realize I brought a suit, but I don’t have a shirt to go under it!
I know I grabbed one (this time!) [...]

BOY IN BALLOON
October 16, 2009

So I’m driving into work today in a panic when I realize I forgot to bring a shirt for my suit.  THAT WOULD BE INTERESTING.
So, I stop off, buy I shirt on clearance and get to work about a half an hour late.
It wasn’t a big deal, but I was having a small melt down [...]

ANOTHER JOB…
October 13, 2009

Don’t worry.. I’m not going anywhere
This job.. has nothing to do with channel 5! 
But I recently signed up to be a VOLUNTEER for Connor’s Kindergarten class.  WHO KNEW IT WOULD BE SO MUCH WORK!?
I had to attend a 3-hour training seminar over the weekend a few weeks ago.  That was fine and actually pretty helpful.
But [...]

BREAKING NEWS
October 9, 2009

So I get a message from our babysitter… with this picture attached.
My little guy lost his first tooth AND I MISSED IT!  I was so bummed!   He looks so cute. 
BUT what is the going rate for a tooth these days??  I was lucky to get a quarter!
Kyle thinks because it’s his first tooth we should give [...]

BRA’S FOR BREAST CANCER
October 8, 2009

I bet that got your attention!
But we all know someone who’s had Breast Cancer.  My mother-in-law was diagnosed right before Kyle and I got married.  Last year I featured a local woman (Lauralee) who just turned 40 and had to have a double Mastectomy.  It was such a personal journey, we’ve actually become friends. 
ANYWAY…
In an effort to [...]
