Money. Sometimes I wish I didn’t have to worry about it. Worry. Sometimes I do it too much! This economy has me in a tailspin of endless thoughts and evenings spent with an upset stomach. Can we pay the bills? How long will we afford to be be on [...]

Blogging for therapy
Posted in general life, self-improvement, tagged blogging, life, random on November 30, 2008 | 3 Comments »
When I started my blog, I didn’t think I’d actually like doing it. I ended up blogging quite a bit and found that I really enjoyed talking about wat is going on in my life with total strangers. There is a sense of freedom in saying what you want to say and not worrying about [...]
Feeling a little more optimistic

I always feel better and am more relaxed when I know what to expect versus just assuming what something will be like. I have been so anxious about the future daycare plans that I couldn’t stop getting emotional about it. I mean, how many times can you cry about it before it isn’t normal?! In [...]
Going back to work means leaving my baby
Posted in baby, general life, tagged baby, child care, daycare, life, stay at home mom, working mother on September 26, 2008 | 1 Comment »
After 15 months of staying at home raising my son, I find myself looking for a job to help pay the bills. I’m really saddened by this and have spent many hours crying about it. I try to rationalize it by saying many parents have to put their child in daycare at 6 weeks or [...]
How much can you love one person?

I love my son with all my heart. I can’t even begin to tell you how much. It is such a deep, powerful and intense love. It may sound crazy, but when I hold him in my arms and think about how much I love him, it makes me want to cry. [...]

Lately I’ve been feeling a little down and not very happy. I can’t quite explain why. I can tell things are bad too because my husband has been increasingly annoyed with me and our daily interactions. He told me the first 2 things that came out of my mouth one particular morning [...]
Would you like a “kid’s fast track to obesity” menu for your baby?

Since Jayden was about a year old, he started shoving every type of food in his mouth. Its great for us because there is more freedom with food unless, of course, it is a vegetable. He used to love them but suddenly there is a ban on healthy food since he knows there [...]
Would it be wrong to chuck my iPhone at the wall?
Posted in general life, technology, tagged Apple, iPhone, life, random, technology on August 5, 2008 | 2 Comments »
I currently have a love / hate relationship with my iPhone. There have been many times recently where I am frustrated beyond belief and I just want to throw it at something! Maybe then things will function correctly?
Here are my issues:
- Keypad gets “stuck” or really super slow so it takes FOREVER to type anything! [...]

One of the most rewarding things I get from FiveHumans is the ability to help others. Some ways may be indirect through a post on our blog or through the donations we make. I wish we could do more but I know as our business expands, we will be able to touch more lives and [...]
New iPhone camera disappointing
Posted in general life, technology, tagged iPhone, iPhone camera, life, random, technology on July 23, 2008 | 1 Comment »
I had the first generation iPhone and pretty much loved everything about it minus the slow internet connection when not on wifi. Well, my phone loving days came to an end when my phone slipped out of my pocket and in to a glass of water. Ruined. Dead. Unhappy apple face. [...]
