Non Compos Mentis: May 2009
http://theabby.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
You really should eat your broccoli. Monday, May 11, 2009. Happy 7th Birthday Julia. This is what I have after 7 years of mothering toil. A lot of sweet sprinkled with some serious attitude. I am completely afraid of teenage-hood. I can envision this with some tight jeans and a drivers license. Whoa Nelly! Oh how I wish I could squish her back into the little lisping, curl bedecked self of years past. I love her to pieces. Happy Birthday little Ju-Be! Here is a little photo flash back of birthdays past .

Non Compos Mentis: August 2009
http://theabby.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
You really should eat your broccoli. Thursday, August 20, 2009. The blender exploded all over the kitchen and my hair and my outfit and my semi mopped floor. It is amazing how thoroughly 2 cups of soymilk can cover things. The vacuum spewed rubber scented smoke through out the house as I faux cleaned the floors. The moth population exploded in my kitchen. Where are all these flying dusty covered creatures coming from? I believe that soon things like my bank account will begin imploding. CA, United States.

You really should eat your broccoli. Wednesday, December 17, 2008. What is a Canola? I have been baking a bunch lately, ( tis. The season), and I find that I am using a lot of oil. (at 14 grams of fat a tablespoon people! I was reading the bottle to figure out what is in the 4000 grams of fat in my pumpkin bread and all it says is Canola. What is a Canola? My mom read something about canola and warned me of its evils, and that it was from Canada. ooh scary! Oil before I knew what it was. I look just like...

Non Compos Mentis: January 2009
http://theabby.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
You really should eat your broccoli. Tuesday, January 27, 2009. Since Friday I have been alone with the Jack-man. Mark swept up the girlies. And hauled them off to Tahoe to spend some time with his co-workers and some of their families. I was invited, but I opted for a few quiet days with the boy instead. It has been a decision I do not regret. Truffles. What can I say my life is bliss. While they have been gone I have realized that Julia is almost ready to be hired as an after school secretary. I may be...

You really should eat your broccoli. Sunday, July 19, 2009. This post is not about my thighs - for future reference that post will be titled "aging, cellulite infused post partum body*. My Stella is growing up. She is really cute and more than a little chubby. Come by and give her a squeeze. I swear she is pudding filled goodness! Cute Ava had a birthday not long after Julia's. In true- you are the 2nd child- fashion I am just posting a picture of her wonderful 5 year old self. I love you little Ava!

Non Compos Mentis: September 2008

You really should eat your broccoli. Thursday, September 25, 2008. If you look horrible, people will see you. We are moving this week, and my house is a disaster. Today I dressed in my prettiest grandma night gown complete with a lace trimmed collar, light blue and pink check pattern and pearl snaps (thank you Markelle. And a pair of brown gauchos. I was rocking the lace, but the gauchos didn't go so well. I thought "who cares no one will ever see me. I look as good as I feel.". Moving and morning sickne...

Non Compos Mentis: Whoa to my Woe
http://theabby.blogspot.com/2010/08/whoa-to-my-woe.html
You really should eat your broccoli. Sunday, August 1, 2010. Whoa to my Woe. I wrote this in August after my big adventure. It rambles a bit, but I blame it on the medication. The last few weeks have been interesting; dramatic enough to warrant a blog visit. Mark and I left the kids with my wonderful, amazing, perfectly competent little sister and ran away to Lake Powell. The magical place of sandstone and majestic beauty, and almost zero cell service. Hospital emergency room. I thought for sure I ha...

You really should eat your broccoli. Sunday, March 29, 2009. Farewell Cute Grandma Carpenter. Today Mark's grandma passed away. She was in her nineties. I will always remember her as one of the brightest, spunky little ladies I have even known. She was wonderful in every way. I will miss her, but I am so happy that she was able to have a good long life. Miss you grandma. See you soon enough. Thursday, March 19, 2009. I am going to eat one right now! I may even eat 2. Wednesday, March 4, 2009. This hair c...

Non Compos Mentis: Hiatus?
http://theabby.blogspot.com/2010/06/hiatus.html
You really should eat your broccoli. Saturday, June 5, 2010. Has been unintentional. The forces of life swirling around me are a black hole of neediness and dirty diapers. My life leaves very little time for my written brain spew. Instead I have had to resort to filling my friends ears with woe, just to get it all the emotional out. There are so many things I should have taken a minute to post about. Sometime I will get to the rest of the stuff I should be writing about. Maybe by November?
