Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and that Santa brought everything you asked for. He sure was good to me! I feel like I got hit by a truck, then it reversed and ran over me again. Why the hell is Christmas so damn exhausting? Is it a crazy 8 month old that doesn’t stop till bed time? Maybe. Is it all the food and cookies I’ve been eating? Most likely. Is it all the alcohol I consumed? Definitely. I do love the holidays but I really just can’t wait to get back into my normal routine of sleeping because…
Put on Your Yamaka…
0It’s time for Hanukkah! This will be my 2nd year celebrating Hanukkah. Every Jewish friend I have really doesn’t celebrate this holiday. They say its the less important holiday of all of them. Uhh what? What the hell??!? Isn’t every holiday important and further more how can you not want to celebrate a holiday that lets you give/get a present every night..for 8 days!? I married a nice Jewish boy from Brooklyn, so I was excited when the holidays came around knowing that I would get 8 additional presents. Except I married the only Jewish boy that doesn’t celebrate Hanukkah….
Greatest Gifts for New Moms
0Its funny how a year and a baby changes your whole way of thinking. Every year, my family asks for everyone’s Christmas wishlist so we don’t go insane trying to find the perfect gift for everyone. Typically, mine list would consist of 5 basic things: Shoes, Clothes, Jewelry, Gift Cards and some type of electronic. This year was a tad different. Obviously clothes were still on the list, but so were other things that will help make my life easier. Like cooking appliances and a large bag so I can fit all Baby A’s stuff in on the go. Times…
Bah Humbug
0I ventured out to the stores finally to get some Christmas shopping done and all Ihave to say is bitches be crazy!!! Seriously, I must have encountered every douche bag on the face of the earth. For every 1 nice person I ran into, 5 aholes were right there behind them. I thought this was the “joyous” time of year when everyone is supposed to happy and spread good cheer and crap like that? I was sorely mistaken. Apparently it’s the time of year to be a an obnoxious d-bag and an ungrateful jerk. I promise you, I am not…
Cyber Monday > Black Friday
0I hate Black Friday with every ounce of my soul. In no way is it fun to go out shopping at midnight, wait in excruciating long lines with pushy, obnoxious people who in an instant will turn on you for a Nintendo game or barbie doll. I don’t know about you, but that is far from the “Christmas Spirit” that we all claim to have as soon as the turkey is down our hatchets. I get that people want a deal and decide to venture out after waking from their turkey comas, but how badly do you need that item…
