I tried The Pink Stuff. Here Are My Results.

I'm a member of Reddit. After toying around with Space Karen (aka Elon Musk), I decided I needed a better social media space to be fun and free. While Reddit has its share of AITA posts (and believe me, they are the assholes in some of them!), a lot of subreddits have been very useful. I'm a part of the Cleaning Tips subreddit and I've been getting my life

20 Solo Things You Can Do At Home

So, in the last post, I talked about the things you can do at home as a family on super hot days. It's time to talk about things you can at home solo. Maybe you have some free time alone or maybe you just need to chill for a bit. Now, you could catch up on cleaning, Netflix (or whatever streaming app you prefer), or just sleep (I highly

Family Fun Things to Do at Home on Hot Days!

This summer, if you haven't noticed, has been record-breaking with heat worldwide. I know personally for us, it was so hot last week, we couldn't even leave the house! That's how hot it was! However, just because we were stuck inside doesn't mean we didn't have any fun! While being on the ever-present Roblox and the like can get old after a while, it's always fun to do some

Need to Save Some Money for School? Check out These Sales!

Yes, it's that wonderful time of the year already. ALREADY. It seems like the summer literally just got started before we were bombarded with back-to-school sales. For some of you, this might be too soon as you have a bit of a ways to go before school is back in session. For others, like myself, school is around the corner and it wouldn't help but to get a head

It’s our 15th dating anniversary!

Normally, this would've been a super happy post but due to recent events, it's a bit somber this year. We'd planned to go to the Grand Canyon but due to my father's sudden death, that trip has been postponed to later this year. We're going to celebrate at home and keep it very low-key. We're going to have steaks and maybe I'll get a nice cake for us

How to Explain Death to a Child

My father recently died. While his death wasn't that much of a surprise since he'd been sick for a long while, the quick deterioration of his health leading to his death was a shock. It also meant I had to explain to my 9 1/2 year old son about death. It's not like I'm shielding Bear from the world. He was very active with me during the BLM protests

Mourning a Father I Wish I Had

My dad recently died. He's had a series of health problems over the years. Some of them were self-inflicted by lack of care and pure laziness. Some of them were things he just couldn't help and was part of the aging process. As it became clear to me that my father would die soon, I started to think about our relationship over the years. My father wasn't the type

15 Hobbies for Moms!

It takes a lot to be a Mom. Besides the constant cooking, cleaning, homework-helping, grocery-store running, PTA meeting-attending, playdate-hosting, and a host of other things...you're not left with a whole lot of time just for you! However, the time you end up having can be super productive if you want to be! I came up with a list of 15 hobbies for all moms to partake in (not at
