My New Uke

Pam — Wed, 27 May 2009 10:10:04 -0500

Really? You REALLY want to know?

It's a Pono, made from Koa with a mahogany fretboard, low G, Indonesia/Oahu made, and out of production coz Pono is using mango now, Koa supplies are low and SUPER expensive. It's Suh-WEET. :)

But really everything you need to know about it is in this vanity link:http://www.nerdseyeview.com/blog/2009/05/05/aloha-oe-2/

Thats funny and yeah he was practically graduated when he was born all thanks to gestational diabetes and the ignorance from doctors who thought it was a wonderful idea to let him go to my 44th week.

12 pounds???? You have given birth to a toddler! Yes, be kind to yourself. That one heck of a bun stuffed in the oven.

Of course

My child was bigger then hers put together. He was a 12 pounder and before I got prego I was only like a buck 10

She showed her belly a few weeks after having them and I almost cried when mine looked worse :O/

Thanks

You do know that she's had a tummy tuck though right? No one can have twins then sextuplets and not have a belly like an empty trashbag.

LOL

That was a comic relief I needed. You wrote it so funny. When I wrote about how "fluffy" I was it became an anger management issue lol. Oh and a mushroom top don't get me started girl. I've only had 1 child and kate from Jon and Kate plus 8 has a better stomach than I do. hmmm lol

We didn't plan so well

We didn't plan so well during our trip to Europe. We were fine for the weight limit for big international flights...for Ryan Air? Not so much. We bookended our trip in Paris and stupidly went to Shakespeare & Co during the first half so we ended up shipping books home. Then in Venice I shipped home, directly from the shops I bought them in, one of the handcrafted paper-mache masks and a very large piece of Murano glass. Somehow the glass ended up being less to ship than the mask!

Swag!

Of course! That stuff can really pack the luggage, can't it? I've become ruthless about sorting it before I leave any conference site. And press kits, too, those things -- now I ask them to ship. Though I just got one on a USB stick, I tellya, THAT is the way to go and it takes up WAY less space in the luggage than five pounds of paper.

I shipped home dirty clothes and souveniers when we went to Italy. Five people. A stroller. 2 grown up suitcases and kid backpacks were unruly enough going over. Coming home it would have been a nightmare.

On the other hand, I am REALLY glad blogher is in Chicago this year so I don't need to figure out what to do with my swag. We have had numerous issues getting it all on the plane even before the charge for baggage started. Now we won't pay to fly our stuff...so it has to fit.

Agreed, but what to do?

DrMom — Sat, 02 May 2009 11:57:29 -0500

I am with you both! I like trendy fun clothes, but when I try them on, I feel like a poser. Every time I go shopping, I want to cry. It seems like the only choices are FRUMPY or teen. I am not overweight, but I am a mom, so I have hips. I want to look casual and comfortable, but I am not ready for all cotton sweatsuits all the time. My mother has not worn jeans in my memory, but I am not ready to give them up. Is there anywhere to try?

We canNOT be the only ones!!! Should we start a clothing line? Surely someone has. We just have to find her frustrated 30 something self!

I Love Michael Kors!

His clothing line is really pretty wonderful most of the time. However, his perfumes reek on me.

Um....

JamiSings — Fri, 20 Mar 2009 07:33:44 -0500

Don't take this as me being ungrateful because at least you replied - but the first link is definantly not formal wear. And the other two don't work. Anyway, I'm looking for actual real life stores to shop at. Unless it's something I've bought before or some things from Home Shopping I don't buy clothing online anymore. It always leads to ill fitting disapointment.

Of course!

They went to Goodwill. Promise!! I cannot wait for warmer weather though; dresses which won't cut off my circulation. I pray.
