Escape from Poo Island

August 15th, 2011 · 2 Comments · Excrement, Humor: You're laughing WITH me, right?, Lake Life

I’m sitting in an old wooden Adirondack chair on our dock. The wind ruffles my shirt’s flutter sleeve. And a random wake from across the channel arrives beneath me, causing the floating dock to bounce and jostle and creak and moan. Off in the distance, I see it. Poo Island. [cue ominous music] From the [...]

The no-potty diaries

Greetings from the new house. We’ve been here just over a week, and we’re starting to feel settled. True, the movers managed to mix up all our basement stuff and cram it floor to ceiling in the storage room. (Christmas decorations buried under 20-year-old photos, anyone?) And true, we couldn’t find the silverware until Day [...]

I know, that post title seems to make NO sense. But it’s in keeping with a) where I am at the moment; and b) the most common theme on my blog. Also, it’s from a sketch that Charlie was in at church years ago. He was a slick New Yawk agent for a kind of [...]

So I guess it’s about time for me to publish a post again. With my new “schedule” (i.e. no schedule) for work, blogging keeps getting bumped down the priority list. And every post that does get published begins to sound the same. Almost like I’m using a template or fill-in-the-blank form. Hmm. I may have [...]

August 26th, 2010 · 10 Comments · Excrement, Humor: You're laughing WITH me, right?, Mediocre housekeeping, Stuff you need to know about, What I've learned

Hello from La Petit Puppe’, the daycare for the discerning puppy owner! As you may remember, we have a new puppy. After three weeks in her new home, Tess has done her best to leave her mark on everything inside. Wow. I haven’t had a puppy since Callie was little in 1996. Over the years, [...]

The Chronicles of Tess

August 11th, 2010 · 7 Comments · Bringin the crazy, Excrement, Humor: You're laughing WITH me, right?, My dusty, muddy, redneck reality, Pics

One day. One whole day’s worth. That’s how much freedom I got to experience with the start of school. Well, technically, it was a day and a half. But that doesn’t matter; what’s important is that I’m an idiot. The details of my descent into dementia aren’t really relevant. Okay, one detail is totally relevant. [...]

Don’t stab the Charmin!

July 29th, 2010 · 15 Comments · Excrement, Humor: You're laughing WITH me, right?, Parenting, Rantypants

On Twitter last week, my lovely friend Sarah laughed at my use of the word “stabby” to describe my mood at the time. (Stabby: A word that I can’t take credit for but am totally willing to be considered creative for using.) Anyway, I was feeling stabby about traffic in the Atlanta metro area, which [...]

Of canines and “chocolate eggs”

May 31st, 2010 · 18 Comments · Bringin the crazy, Excrement, Humor: You're laughing WITH me, right?, Parenting

What you are about to read is NOT fictional. Any resemblance to actual people or events is 100% accurate. This kind of thing really does happen here. Way too often. Abby was upside-down on the couch again. Stomach to the seat, legs against the back, head hanging down toward floor. THUD. Her head made floor [...]

Weekday update: with recurrent poo, bunnies, and a leadership guru

May 6th, 2010 · 5 Comments · Death to plants!, Excrement, Humor: You're laughing WITH me, right?

As you can imagine, this week has felt a little bit full. With Callie Dog’s passing early Tuesday and keeping kids home from school so they could “grieve” (which looked an awful lot like playing and bickering and researching breeds for our NEXT dog), I had to spend Wednesday and today catching up. So I’ll [...]
