That’s right, I’m back for a some more. Last night wasn’t quite enough for my insatiable sofalust. Allergy season has brought back a little blast from the past: a dry and coughy throat, sultry nights on the couch downstairs, and a precious teaspoon of my favorite cough syrup. Mmmm. Makes being a little under the [...]

Back on the Couch
Posted in camera morte, cherry blossoms, coughing, sleep deprivation, tagged apocalypse on April 29, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Oh look. It’s 5:20 a.m. and I find myself once again on the couch in the living room. Throat is dry as a day old piece of toast. Eeesch. At least I have a moment whilst drinking my honey laden tea to write on my favorite blog. Or, rather, post. I’m tired. Have been tired [...]
Bummer
Posted in parenting, photography, raising twins, twins, tagged poop on April 28, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
The last post was quite literally a big bummer. The ladies are just winding down from 2+ weeks of the shits. I’m not talking innocent little baby poops, either. Let’s just say everyone was miserable and it didn’t seem like it would ever end. But I think the misery is waning. Things are starting to [...]

This parenthood thing is serious business. You start thinking about it in your mid to late thirties. “Maybe we should have a kid.” If you’re like us, being in your late thirties, early forties, things might not have happened the way you thought they would. Maybe you had a few failed pregnancies, maybe things took [...]
The Best Tree in Baltimore
Posted in baltimore, cherry blossoms, photography, spring, tagged pink trees on April 23, 2008 | 2 Comments »
The best tree in Baltimore has finally bloomed. It usually does so the same time every year, late April. The year my husband and I got married I was hoping it would have held its bloom a little longer for all the out of town guests dropping by, but by May 10th, it had rained [...]
I Did Not Forget

I’ve just been out of town for a few days, on a little R&R in the middle of nowhere with my hubby. Thanks, brother Marek for a lovely fortieth birthday present! Will post some pics soon. Grandparents stayed home with my sweet babies. It took Beenie a little time to warm up to us again, [...]
Vaccines, Flouride Treatments, the ‘Other’ Blog

The girls had their 18 month old check-ups/shots today. These days are exciting (I get to hear what a great job I’m doing feeding them, find out their huge heights and weights) and nerve wracking for me (wailing shots, double wide stroller too fat to fit through door) and plain ol’ miserable for them. They [...]
While I Still Have 9 Minutes…

Today was miraculous. Went to a good friend’s apartment where there were no children and no responsibilities, got my legs waxed (good friend is a professional esthetician), drank bitter cherry/pomegranate juice mixed with water, walked around in the incredible cloudless, cool, sunny weather. We had food at the City Cafe, which is a Baltimore institution [...]
A Few Things
Posted in camera morte, tagged clicks, food on April 15, 2008 | 4 Comments »
First, my little watercolor/ink drawing did, in fact, not sell at the auction I wrote about. I can’t say that I’m surprised, but it still kind of sucks. I would like, however, to send it to the first person who displays interest in having it on this blog. Send me a comment letting me know [...]
Am I Dead?

This is the question I posed to my husband as I awakened this morning, after a disturbing dream where I had died and was speaking with or listening to people I had been close to in my life. I was able to communicate with my husband, overheard a phone conversation betwixt my father and sister, [...]
