Introduction "Older" mother of two---wife---runner---cat lover---anal-retentive bitch---funny---crazy (in a good way, I think)---classic rock lover---down-to-earth---a little crude-- This blog discusses "The good, the bad and the ugly" of child-rearing. I'm not going to sit here and glorify it or go on and on about how incredibly intelligent and wonderful my children are. I'm going to be honest even if it means someone reading this gets offended or judges me. Raising children is a tough job and I just know so many moms/dads will/can relate to this blog. I will try to be funny as much as possible even on my worst days. I am a pretty damn funny person in real life but for some reason when I blog or journal, I come out as a negative depressed person. My goal is to make others feel as though they aren't the only ones losing their minds in the midst of parenting and to chuckle a bit. :)

Radio wire is often used to make bird nests. What station do they listen to?

XM Radio baby! I have lived in WA for 8-years and have no clue what radio stations exist up here. I love the decade stations, classic rock station, the soft music station. I don't know the actual names of some of these stations; just the number. :)
