Things I Took Away From My Mom

Literally things that I took. Not lessons I left home with, but stuff I walked out of the house with when I moved out.

The calculator was made in Japan. Remember when little things were made in Japan? I think that in over 20 years, I've changed the batteries once.

I also walked out with my mom's only slip, and jewelry I didn't even ask if I could have. What a nice mom I have.

Funny Mommy Blogs

Having no kids myself, but with lots of friends with little ones, I believe that women go stir crazy as stay-at-home moms. That's why my two favorite blogs are mommy blogs.

They are funny and grouchy, my favorite kind of folks.
