Mom to Bee

Organizing my closet by color makes me happier than it probably should. Song title: The Color Of Love by Boyz II Men

The other day, I came to an embarrassing realization. I am an addict. Maybe I should back up and start at the beginning. Or, at least, the beginning of my epiphany. You see, about two weeks ago, a little website called Groupon (maybe you’ve heard of it) had a deal for another little business called [...]

Yesterday it was raining. So I grabbed my new hooded jacket and went about my day, dropping Bee off at preschool, sitting around the house doing absolutely nothing, picking Bee up at preschool… While waiting for her class to be dismissed, I even struck up a conversation with a cute mom of one of the [...]

Well, ladies and gentleman, it’s that time of year again… Time for the Seattle Goodwill’s Glitter Sale! Except that the sale was really the weekend before last. What? You thought I was gonna warn you ahead of time so you could steal some cool designer clothes out of my fatty, sweaty fingers? Amateur. Sissy, Arla [...]

Since I know that tens of you are on the edge of your seat, waiting for my recap of the 2010 Goodwill Glitter Sale, here is a little bloggie amuse bouche to wet your appetite… In case you aren’t paying attention, I’d like to play the “Identify the Things That Don’t Belong” photo game. From [...]

Despite, or maybe because of, all our fantastic purchases on the first day of the Goodwill Glitter Sale, Sissy and I decided to brave the crowds again for Day Two of the Glitter Sale. Can I just point out that I not only woke up on a Saturday morning at the butt crack of dawn, [...]

Please excuse the photo-heavy post. When you find crap smoking numbers like these, pictures speak louder than words. Even my words. Long time readers (because this blog is so old) know that Sissy and I have a family tradition of shopping, a lot, during the holiday season. Last year, we found out about this crazy [...]

I love planning things. Weddings, parties, and even especially vacations. “Well, of course,” you say. “Everyone plans their own vacations.” Um, yeah. Not as much as I do. See, for the last week, I have been kind of freaking out because I haven’t completely planned my entire wardrobe for next week’s trip to Vegas. But [...]

As my friends can attest to, Mr. Bee decided to let himself go during the last month. So much so, that during a recent birthday fiesta, many of my friends didn’t even recognize him! He seriously looked like the Uni-bomber or something!! Don’t believe me? Check it out for yourself!! But after countless hours of [...]
