This week…oh, it’s been like three, but I went to Chicago, and I put ketchup...

So I’m sitting here at Millennium Park in Chicago. I came here a few days ago for the biggest blogging conference in the world. Blogher. I heard mixed reviews before I went. Some told me it was a...

This week…we were burglarized, twice!

So I’m sitting here at 10:30pm on the Sunday of one of the longest, strangest weeks of my life. On Monday we came home to find the door to our garage kicked in and all my jewelry stolen, along with the...

This week…at least we have a plan.

So I actually wrote this on Sunday night, making the “this week” title logical, but then my computer died and the charger was in the car and I was like “Oh hell no,” so now I’m publishing it on Monday,...

This week…we moved, and I’m barely hanging on!

  I’ve never been so tired in my entire life. I’m in one of those places where you just HOLD ON and tell yourself it can’t last forever. Because it can’t. And that’s why it’s manageable. We moved in...

22 weeks…what?

I would just like to make one thing clear: I have never, ever in my life taken pregnancy selfies updating the world on my uterine happenings. And yet, I’m doing it for you. But also for me. Mostly for...

This week…I’ve been repeating my mantra..and…it’s not really working.

  For the past few months, I’ve had a mantra. It’s very complicated. It goes like this: “All you have to do is get through March.” I knew this month was going to be a killer one. I’m teaching 5...

This week…just in the knick of time…she was saved by salt air and fog.

(First of all, it was last week, but whatevs.) After a super handy internet helper diagnosed me with chronic depression based on the last blog post I wrote, I figured it was time to make some changes....

Oh, Heyyyyyy, 36 weeks…and yes, they threw me a baby sprinkle.

I’m 36 weeks pregnant. Today. I have a few thoughts. But first, did I mention they threw me a “baby sprinkle?” Yes, yes. Proof. (MacDonald is my married name): You see, this is what you get when you...

39 weeks…and crazy happened

The other day, I looked in the mirror as I was getting in the shower and I saw myself, 39 weeks pregnant, huge and round. I saw breasts nearly resting on an enormous belly. I saw the stripes racing...

I invented a pumpkin patch challenge. Maybe we failed. But probably not.

I love October and I love pumpkin patches. Can’t really explain why. Some things attract you for reasons unknown. Like Mick Jagger, for example. He’s not hot. And yet he is so hot. Maybe it’s the...
