Miss D : MyBlogHer Profile

First Days

The K's have many of these this week. Thing 1 starts Kindergarten and I'm one of the few mom's not having a mental breakdown at the idea, Thing 2 starts Preschool (finally!) and Miss D starts her first full-time job, ever. 14 year old moment: I'm stoked! Now back to grown up me. I will be working at the local daily newspaper as a District Sales Manager. That means I'll be in charge of a district's worth of carriers, dealers, and customers. Since the girl's hours aren't as long as mine, they'll need a combo of before and after school care and daycare. The $ is adding up quickly.  Read more >

The Latest D Drama

How is that, for someone who claims to love simplicity and happiness, I have so much nonsense in my personal life? Because the person I love the most can't accept me as I am and is the antithesis of me? This is why people shouldn't get married young. The Man and I aren't doing well. It's mostly the same old, same old: I'm messy, disorganized, scatterbrained (gasp! the horror!) and refuse to change, he wants a perfectionist, type A, June Cleaver type mama with a porn star side. What? I suggested counseling. Okay, I told him I was going to set it up.  Read more >

Snow Melt

The long North Dakota winter is almost over. Highs in the 50s and climbing, dak rats everywhere, and BUGS! Who would have thought I'd ever be this excited to see a spider or fly? The sight of them are almost as good as seeing grass again and watching the snow quickly fade away. This is Midwest bliss. In the spirit of spring, I've sold/donated/trashed almost all baby clothes/toys/accessories. Okay, I lied. This happened after I told The Man that I just couldn't tolerate the idea of another baby.  Read more >

Wunderbar

A shit week, really. Angry me from wake up to fall asleep, then Shane comes home pissy thanks to a shit week for him. Shit, shit, shit! Ridiculous, and it will end tomorrow. I don't do miserable for very long--life's too damn short for that! I'm just frustrated and fed up with the way my life is going right now. Which means I need to change things. If it's not working, try something else, right? But I'll keep putting it off, at least until we get back from Montana and South Dakota.  Read more >
