A single mom sharing her opinions on everything from products, movies, life in the dating scene, motherhood, and work while trying to find the humor in it all.
I am fortunate enough to live in Boston on the East Coast where seafood is abundant. Seafood is a way of life here. I am also super fortunate that my grandfather is a lobsterman in Boston Harbor. Yum, lobster all summer! Here are some pictures of what my son does with my grandfather (his Papa) [...]
I am now breathing a HUGE sigh of relief. Hunters surgery is over! Everything went well and smooth. The doc said he had a small hernia hole but there was a lot of fat that poked through and that him having surgery was the best call. That made me feel better- i did the right [...]
Remember how I got a new job at the very beginning of the year?? Well not only am I still super happy there (I’ve already gotten a raise!!!) but it has significantly impacted Hunter. I knew it would be better for the both of us. I even mentioned it in my post letting you all [...]
About Hunter’s surgery. And I work in surgery. This is what I do- everyday! It’s still 2 1/2 weeks away but ever since I booked the surgery last week, i have had nightmares every night. And not necessarily surgery related either. Just random nightmares about Hunter. Deep down I think I am extremely anxious and [...]
Yesterday we found out that Hunter needs to have surgery. He has an epigastric hernia. When I pointed out the small bulge just an inch above his belly button to his pediatrician, he told me it was diastasis recti and it would go away on its own. Lucky for me and Hunter I work in [...]
This week is February vacation here in Boston and while the kids are out of school and its still chilly here, you’ll want to get them out of the house to do something. School vacation week February 18-27 at the TD Banknorth Garden Disney On Ice Presents Disney’s Pixar Toy Story 3 will be showing. [...]
Aah, the dreaded conversation that most parents stress over. Well I’m there. Hunter is 9 and is considered a tween. Now I know they teach sex ed in like 5th or 6th grade and he’s only in 3rd right now, but I’d like for him to hear it from me first. We’ve always had a [...]
The very first and only time I had ever seen The Rockettes Christmas Spectacular was when I was sixteen and I saw them in New York at Radio City Music Hall. Having been a dancer all growing up, I was completely amazed. So when I was offered the opportunity to see the show again, here [...]
Or so he thinks. Seriously. It all started the other night. Well, actually it started last year but the “engagement” happened the other night. He’s had the same “girlfriend” since last year and by girlfriend I mean, they probably sit next to each other at lunch. Remember, he’s only nine. So anyways, the other night [...]
I hope everyone had a great Halloween! I know we did! Hunter went as an Undertaker and I wanted to show you all a picture, because honestly and I’m not just saying this because I’m biased but he looked AWESOME! I did his make-up and I’m really starting to think that I may have missed [...]
