A thirty something tomboy gets a present from the stork: ...."We've also discovered that she will bring whatever is in her hands to her mouth. ...Mostly there's nothing in arm's reach to swallow, except mom's hair, which has been falling out in droves (another neat pregnancy trick). Do babies get hairballs?"....

The person who was covering for me while I was gone comes in on Mondays and Fridays but no longer covers the Help Desk for me while I am there, which means I have once again fallen into the abyss at work. But that's fine. It's a f
Another Day. Another Dollar....

My little bundle of joy has decided, for the past two days, to revert to earlier infanthood and wake up every two hours, desperately hungry. Since I am the sole source of nutrition and the process involves some navigating, I am just a little t
In Our Backyard

One of the nice things about having one family member at home full time and another family member only working part time is that you finally have time for other things without feeling like you should be doing other things (laundry, dishes, etc, etc).
Relative Constitutionality.

I have been watching with some amusement the unfolding of the Ed and Elaine Brown story here in New Hampshire. Having been subjected to the very same inane arguments when I was a child, from a well meaning but over-zealous and may I say, comp

At least two people that I know of have decided not to vote for Hillary Clinton because of her choice of campaign theme song . One of these people, who referred to the singer in question as a "screaming Canadian," still volunteers mo

"Wow! You look great!" is the new "hey-you're-back" comment at work, which I accept as a compliment but makes me feel just as self conscious as when I apparently didn't look so great. So even though we're done wi

I am glad to report that we all seem to have survived yesterday.For my part I went back to a job in which nothing much had changed, including ongoing technical issues which I had left by themselves two months ago, and yet of course some things had--t

Well folks, this is it!I'm officially off Short Term Disability and onto Part-Time, which will continue until August at which point I will become full time again. Wish me luck. I've had hiatuses from work before, but never one quite so
Motorcycle Wannabes

If you're ever driving behind a motorcycle for a long period of time, you might notice that he or she will wave at other passing motorcycles. We're a friendly bunch.Usually. 'Round about Motorcycle Week here in NH, however, y

This coming Sunday is Lionel first Father's Day. Aside from his reluctance to take part in Hallmark occasions, the traditional Father's Day gifts won't really turn his eye. We like barbecue, but when we have a barbecue I'

This just in... a UFO was spotted in Chichester, NH earlier this week. The bright, unidentified light looked like a "camera flash that lit up our bedroom." Coincidentally enough, I saw the same flashes of light. They were

Whom can we trust, if not our own government ? I suppose it should not come as any surprise that the Department of Transportation, bastion of tar, smog, and ever increasing road noise, would be caught dumping lead on unsuspecting communities.&nb

Where were we? Oh yes. Tuesday. Again I am forced to admit that there is nothing going on, aside from an exciting trip, later in the day, to the library, at which point I will drop off some fertilizer (okay, there's an actual, a

This is my last week of short term disability pay (aka "maternity leave"- a clever corporate way of not actually paying for maternity leave but for the physical inconvenience caused by giving birth. This way, they don't have to tu

I spent alot of my childhood at this one house, a couple who had an in-home daycare. The house was surrounded by a white pine plantation, in back of which there was a gravel pit. Just before the cliff of the gravel pit was a small clearin

My brother and his wife are up for the week and, since I am currently unencumbered by work, they invited me and the baby down to Boston for the day. We decided on the Museum of Science, a place we've been to repeatedly as children but not s

Being part-time homesteaders definitely has its good points. You tend to do things that other people hadn't thought of doing, like making your own charcoal or even scrounging for it from the ash of your furnace. You can grow a reaso

I really meant to just watch the game, really, I did. It was rainy and cold and I was just going to put in an appearance so the team knew I was still alive. I brought the baby since I had no one to watch her--how could I play a softball g
