How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Getting My Mojo Back . . .and Getting it Off My Chest!

in Everyday on 11/25/09

It’s been a rough week so!

~I hope my Hubby thinks Hypochondriacs are *hot* cause I’ve decided I am what I am, this old bird can’t change her ways!

~I sent up a little prayer of thanks last night….to the The Lunch Lady. Thanks goodness today is hot lunch day for my darling daughters. I am so sick of making lunches!

~While I’m at it I’d also like to say a quick blessing to the makers of Tylenol, Advil and Ice packs. You rock.

~Why doesn’t Canada have a “Black Friday” of Shopping? How do I get that started here?

~Why do I bother with the non-fat latte then add a Ginger Molasses Cookie? Is this really going to keep me in those skinny jeans?

~I need a Blue Tooth. You know….some kind of wireless cell phone contraption for my car, but I’m afraid of making a shopping blunder and can’t decide which kind to buy. I have shopping paralysis!

~Why do shirts and sweaters always look so good in the store and then like crap when I get them home? Are there some kind of magic mirrors in those dressing rooms??

~Oh…and one last time. Down with Swine flu.

Random feels so good. 🙂

      Living in a small Town our boxing day sales are usually pretty slim. 😉

      What a great web log. I spend hours on the net reading blogs, about tons of various subjects. I have to first of all give praise to whoever created your theme and second of all to you for writing what i can only describe as an fabulous article. I honestly believe there is a skill to writing articles that only very few posses and honestly you got it. The combining of demonstrative and upper-class content is by all odds super rare with the astronomic amount of blogs on the cyberspace.

    Throw back and a little travel inspo….

Hubby and I will never forget the ferry ride in Lake Como that took us to this HomeExchange in postcard perfect Italy. 
How did we manage to spend almost 2 weeks at this dreamy location without maxing out our credit card? @homeexchangecom 

I promise - once you try #HomeExchange you will never look at travel the same way again! Follow the link in my bio for all the deets. ❤️

    Squee! It’s that time again — planning another #HomeExchange getaway!
Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!

Do you have a favourite town or lake in cottage country? Tell me!!

One annual membership fee + listing our home = unlimited swaps all year long. Affordable luxury travel for the win.

If you want to travel more often and live like a local, you need to check out @homeexchangecom.
