I’m a couple days late with my tip this week. Seems that packing an entire house, preparing to launch a business, and baking up a storm for a charity dessert auction (not to mention wrangling Baby Caveman) can take a lot of time. Who knew? This week’s tip is a short one: put away the [...]
Oops. A while ago, I redid my blog design, as you might remember. (Side note: I am redoing it AGAIN. Not because I don’t like it, because I do, but because Geek Husband is a programmer, but doesn’t have any WordPress or Drupal experience, so I am designing my site again and giving him the [...]
I had a great tip planned for you guys today, but it will wait for next week, because instead of reading what I have to say, you should read THIS piece from Sara Zarr.

Then two nights ago he was having a real rough time. Around three in the morning he felt hot so I took his temperature – [...]

I decided last night that I need to read more Middle Grade books. What MG books should I absolutely not miss? You might also like: Hmmm….seems we can’t find anything else.
I know, I know. I usually do Fast Five posts on Fridays, but I figure since I haven’t blogged in, like, for-ever, I can get away with doing one on this lovely Monday as well. 1. New! If you’re reading this via email or an RSS feed, you can’t see it, but say hello to [...]
America has the largest obesity problem in the world. We have the highest percentage of overweight and obese people out there (more than 60% of us fall into that category). Sadly, nearly half a million people in the US die every year due to illness that can be connected of obesity and poor nutrition. Childhood [...]
I am ridiculously out of shape. Like, really ridiculously, y’all. I would like to say it’s because I just had a baby, but let’s face it: Baby Caveman is almost eight months old. And the problem didn’t start then anyway. As a former athlete*, it’s really tough to be this out of shape. I am [...]
