I need a new home!

Posted on August 14, 2010 by Shannon

You may have noticed my blog is all jacked up. Yeah, it’s fun huh? It has something to do with some disease or something with my web hosting. It’s some gibberish I don’t understand, but the bottom line is I … Continue reading →

RealSleep = No Sleep

Posted on June 29, 2010 by Shannon

About a month ago, a friend told me about something she heard on the radio. She knows I’m a terrible sleeper and how much I struggle with it, so she was quick to tell me about this sleep CD – … Continue reading →

Posted on June 7, 2010 by Shannon

As I mentioned, after hearing “that’s not normal, you should see a doctor” about a billion times over the course of three weeks with my fat feet and ankles, I finally gave in. That was Sunday, May 30. Today is … Continue reading →

Posted on June 1, 2010 by Shannon

Posted on May 20, 2010 by Shannon

I don’t normally watch the Marriage Ref – I’ve only seen part of one episode before tonight. But after the finales of NBC’s Thursday night line up, I kept the TV on tonight. I didn’t really watch the story of … Continue reading →

Done done done

Posted on April 12, 2010 by Shannon

I’m so busy, and I’m so exhausted, and I’m so very over it all. Lately I’ve been trying to fit in far too many things in the few hours I have each week. Work has been nonstop, and because I’m … Continue reading →

One day gorgeous, next day snow = bullshit

Posted on March 20, 2010 by Shannon

Despite my motivation earlier this week, there’s no way I’m running in this shit: Maybe I can get myself to go out and run, even if I’d rather be lazy, if the weather is nice, but when it’s cold, rainy, … Continue reading →

This is nothing more than an obnoxious rant, but I had to write it out so it wasn’t stewing in my head anymore

Posted on February 17, 2010 by Shannon

Switching jobs can be a pain in the ass for many reasons, but the one I hate the most right now is having to switch health insurance coverage. Here’s my saga: – I started the job in early December. – … Continue reading →

It’s not quite the same

Posted on January 19, 2010 by Shannon

Emily [while handing Brady over to me]: Doesn’t he just make you want to have one? Me: Actually, yes. But of course I didn’t mean that I actually wanted to have a baby. I’ve always wanted to adopt, and I … Continue reading →

Posted on November 12, 2009 by Shannon

With the impending doom of winter already here, I thought I’d share a few reasons why I loathe the season so much. While it’s a sunny (cold) day here in Michigan, I am not fooled. I know winter and all … Continue reading →

Share your kidneys!

Posted on November 7, 2009 by Shannon

With my birthday coming up soon, I had to renew my license plates, and it just so happens that my license was expiring this year too. So I paid a visit to the Secretary of State last week. These experiences … Continue reading →

The case of the carport

Posted on November 6, 2009 by Shannon

All I wanted was a carport. A place to shelter my car from the winter snow. It should have been one phone call, one signature and out the door. But no. Two weeks ago The Giraffe calls our complex’s business … Continue reading →

Eructation, still

Posted on November 4, 2009 by Shannon

Remember the burping fiasco? Well it hasn’t fully ceased. In fact, it was full on burping for about two weeks. Then I got a stomach virus, and all through the barfing and crying and not eating for days, I kept … Continue reading →

Slow roller

Last night before my book club meeting, I met my friend Robin for dinner. We found a Pizza Hut on Google Maps and decided to meet there, but upon arrival we realized it was takeout only. So I hopped in … Continue reading →

Around and around we go

Posted on October 14, 2009 by Shannon

On Friday there was a tag on our front door from FedEx. They tried to deliver my new phone (nothing fancy, still haven’t worked my way up to the ever-coveted iPhone), but we weren’t home, so the tag said they’d … Continue reading →
