Looking to next week

So. It was a banner week here at Camp Sleep is for Loozah’s, record traffic from beginning to end. Largely, I’m sure in part with Mofo Delurk Day which got me out of my Turkey Lurky ways of not commenting b/c there were either too many comments already or I just didn’t think I had anything interesting to add to the conversation – and I actually stopped by and said..

Supporting the Sisterhood

I didn’t hit the Mofo Delurk day too hard yesterday because I knew I had this on tap and I wanted to bribe all my lurkers to come out and play today, so pretend like today is yesterday and delurk for me mmkay? Lovesyah. I wrote about my sisterfriend here. I’m looking to help her out. She’s 3 weeks into the nursing thing, well into the OMGWTF indoctrination of it.. Read More

Semi Naked Blogging

I come from a long line of non breast feeders. (I’d love it if you’d check out that link and post a response – I’m still curious if my theory is right) Before November 2006 I had no intention of breastfeeding Alex. I was completely skeeved out by the idea of a baby sucking on my boobs. I had two friends who had felt the same way and they’d pumped.. Read More

Laughter is a healer – read this – I challenge you to not laugh. Scout is currently shaking the bed from laughter.

Bare Naked Blogging

(You may have noticed the new little “Facebook Sucks” icon over to the right. Click the button and see what you think for yourself. This latest campaign is what prompts this post.) I have one SIL (Mrs. Deacon) who will nurse anywhere, without covering up. She’s also tiny and so subtle about it that I’ve been in the room with her and didn’t realize she was doing it. My other..

A month of pink

Happy October! Happy Breast Cancer awareness month! This is one of those issues that I should be more passionate about. I should be more in tune in my own life and I should work through things that might contribute to the health of my breasts (all kinds of body image hurt will come spewing forth tomorrow). The women in my family have a history of breast cancer and heart problems… Read More

Girl Power Week

I really don’t mean to have a theme this week, but everything that is on my mind and in my heart to say is all about women’s issues. So, here’s the breakdown of how I think this week’s postings are going to look: Today was all for Grandma, the one we’re all pretty sure never said mofo. (And ya’ll are SO hilarious for your replies to that!) Monday – Gonna.. Read More

Dear Grandma,

Ninety two years ago today, you were born. I have known the details of your life, but it’s only as I get older that I really start to understand you. To me, you were always, “Grandma” and you lived with a determination and a work ethic that made me believe you were born with grey hair and that hard work was what you did for fun. When you were nine.. Read More

How I became an adult

It wasn’t the graduate degree, the husband, the signing my name to a big ass mortgage or the baby. Not even the social security card. Nope. It was this. Now. I know. Most of you are like, huh? what? Big deal. Oh but just let me tell you. I get skeeved out by: 1) touching raw meat 2) “bad bites” of food (you know, when you bite into something and.. Read More

Meme Part Two

Same rules apply as last time 🙂 I got tagged by Doodaddy for this 10-question meme. 1. What were you doing ten years ago? I was teaching 3rd grade, Scout and I were in a weird place in our relationship (again), I’m pretty sure this is the week I had a bladder infection so bad I was convinced the middle of Hell had taken up reference in my body (and..
