I found the Boy’s sandals! Didn’t even have to do the גורל הגר”א. Two friends to whom I was miserably complaining over the last 1+ weeks about how I couldn’t find them had suggested I check the hamper in the living room, because, as you of course already know, the Boy spent two Friday nights [...]
Today’s developments thus far:
I have put in TWO loads of laundry. That’s right, count them, one, two. I even — wait for it — transferred the first one into the dryer before loading up the second one. That’s been especially impossible since the pregnancy symptoms started, see; don’t ask, I can’t explain, except to say [...]
This is the post I promised you, the really really long post that I added to on and off while my computer wasn’t working. Prepare to become educated on the subjects of my minivan, my often-flooding basement, and other sundry things. And if for some reason you missed it, I’ve posted THREE times already this [...]
I did a bad thing. I mean besides accidentally allowing my son to yank at my computer so it won’t work unless I tape the power cord to the screen in a particularly artful manner, and even then it only works some of the time. That was at least an accident; this was on purpose. [...]

Anyone who is so inclined is cordially invited to buy me this, along with any or all of the coordinating items. It might possibly cheer me up, assuming it arrives in the next few hours, which it won’t, so maybe you shouldn’t bother.
What’s wrong? Nothing really, I guess. Just the letdown that follows a big [...]
[Ed. note, added January 30, 2010: This post contains no information whatsoever about guinea pigs. Thank you for visiting.]
Whoever lives in range of my house (except those of you who are in medical school and are supposed to be studying) is cordially invited to come over here and clean out the guinea pig cage, which [...]
This is our new chair. You know, the one I rescued from a Manhattan trash heap.
Isn’t it lovely? Be honest. Could you have let the waste removal people take such a thing away? For what? Was someone going to sit on it at the landfill? It’s in totally fine condition. And now it’s mine mine mine. [...]
At around 10:40 last night, just before I posted, I heard the Boy crying in his crib. This isn’t unheard of, but something about it was different than usual; he actually seemed to really be awake, rather than crying in his sleep. Now I confess that having JUST gotten the girls into bed at 10:30, [...]
So since R was hospitalized last week (you know, for the FOURTH TIME in less than a year), every time anyone asks me how I am, I tend to reply “I’m an unmitigated basket case.” Which I was/am. We have no idea what’s going to happen, see, and everything is a huge mess.
What I’ve discovered, [...]

G has so far dropped two bombs on me today, and it’s only 10:18 AM. The first bomb was awesome. “Rabbi S says there’s almost nobody at yeshiva and it doesn’t pay for me to come in. I’ll be home in ten minutes.” WOOHOO!! And his afternoon job is officially off today, so this means [...]
