Back after a LOOOOONG hiatus

It's been - oh like - 8 months since I've written here.

But I've been having that antsy feeling again.

You know - that feeling of really needing to blow off steam and vent and share and pontificate and just BE.

And not in the "let's put this in my Facebook status" kind of way.

So, I am back and will re-dedicate myself to writing in this blog.

Why?

For the same reasons I started.
To chronicle my kids' goings-on and funny stories - who were 3 when I started. And who are now 5 and going on Kindergarten in the fall. And who are growing up so damn fast.

And also, to provide an outlet to share thoughts around what-evs.
Politics.
Social etiquette.
Keeping up a social life in suburbia - a social life that now consists of kids' birthday parties, soccer games, bunco and book club with the neighborhood ladies. and, the occasional GNO and weekends away in Vegas.
Parenting.
Being a wife.
Managing a career. Or a job.
Balancing on a tight rope.
Fashion do's and don'ts for the late 30's/40's set (which seems to be a popular topic these days with my fellow momma girlfriends here in suburbia).

And even if no one else reads this but me, who gives a sh&t?! It's for me and my kids. And maybe, for my friends and whomever will want to read and listen and participate.

'Cause I have a lot to say, dammit. ;-)

Hey Girlfriend,

Yeay!!! I love reading your blog! I love the topic of fashion in our "late" 30's...I have been giving this much thought these days, how to stay 'hip' and not too trendy, yet not dress like Talbots (not yet anyway)...looking forward to reading your thoughts!
xoxo

hello!
i'm pretty new to this site, so please forgive my new-esque attitude. i was reading through this post and i was like "wow", you really dont seem like the typical mom (and thats a really big complement from a teenager that still lives with her mom). i didnt know that life could be so, well, busy! but even if no one other than this other lady who posted before me and myself read your blog (which i highly doubt because you seem pretty awesome...) feel free to know that there are people out there who look forward to reading your posts.
