I keep making things explode in my mother’s microwave. I think that qualifies as a bad habit. Its not intentional, its due to the fact that Mumsy’s microwave is about a thousand times more powerful than mine and I keep grossly overestimating the amount of time needed to zap coffee.
The coffee habit has gotten out [...]

Things are great. Family, great. Snow, great.
But I want outta here.
I wanna go home
where no one sabotages my twins schedule to the point that they are running on 2 different time zones: falling asleep at 6pm island time, which is unfortunately 11pm Eastern time but waking up at 7am Eastern, 2am island time. I can’t [...]

Holy crap, we actually achieved it- 10 whole hours without the twinnies. It took 10 months, 4 airplanes, and 2 relatives, but we did it and it was AWESOME.

We’ve moved on from Cambridge to my Mum’s house in Maine. I can’t stop thinking about Cambridge though. Jungledad and I have so much history there. It was strange to go back with the babies.

The jungle has made junglemom a total wuss. I can’t handle cold. And I know cold. Serious cold. I grew up in the far north, I know about snot-freezing cold. Or at least I did. The tropics have made me soft. I was shivering in my hotel room and the thermostat said 72. What the [...]

For holly red bulbs
