I love my
therapist. Even new-mom Heidi Klum goes. The office is open and
available 7 days a week with great hours: 8am-10pm Monday-Saturday
and 8am-9pm on Sunday. And when I travel, it's never more than
a 20 minute drive for a session. I can highly recommend her if you

I'm a SAHM. For me, this used to stand for "Stay-At-Home Mom". After my 4th child, I made the difficult decision to give up my career and focus on my backyard, and I made the choice to become a SAHM. Then the recession hit. And with 5 children, I'm still a SAHM, but there is a new definition for me now..."Stuck-at-Home Mom".
I'd love a job. I'd love a paycheck. But, as a writer with limited technology skills, I'm having trouble figuring out my worth in the working world. What's my real-time value?

Katie and
I recently were invited to appear on The Dr. Phil show to do a
segment about teen stress. Our segment covered "Applying To
College", and we were to discuss how the entire college

Seems like every couple of years, I
have a moment where I can't take my hair anymore and I decide
that I'm either going to cut it myself or I'm going to find
someone to cut it for me...immediately...and I start calling salon
numbers in the yellow pages to find the first available hair… Read More »

It’s finally sunk in after one divorce and ten years into my second marriage….I’m not Cinderella and my husband isn’t Prince Charming. I feel cheated. I really bought into that “and they lived happily ever after” stuff when I was little. What I’ve discovered, though, is that if you…

Sex after 40 is kind of funny. Sex after 40 and 5 kids is hilarious. Last week, while waiting to get my manicure for the kids' school's auction, I was flipping through a magazine and stumbled across an article on how to use dirty language to enhance your sex life.

Both our family pets died yesterday. Of course if you've read my earlier blog about why I hate family pets, you'd think I'd be happy...relieved. But I'm not. The fish news was a tough message to deliver, but telling the kids about the cat was devastating. The day before, Lily… Read More »

I heard the dreaded question last week. Actually, I heard the dreaded question a couple of months ago and thought we had put the issue to rest. I found some horrifying youtube videos and forwarded them to my teenage daughter in hopes of convincing her that a belly button piercing is… Read More »

Our cat is missing. She has been gone for two days and the kids are absolutely sick about it. I try to reassure them that she is probably taking a little vacation from the chaos of our house and not to worry about her. But last night, we had to make signs for the neighborhood and… Read More »

For the third morning in a row, my day started like this...."OH, *@&#^$*@!! It's 7:30!" My husband jumped out of bed as I stared at the clock thinking there must be a mistake. Daylight Saving Time is killing me. Now I face the game show-like effort to make coffee, get dressed, get… Read More »
