Yoga Adventures: My Yoga Crush and The Return of The Giggle Girl
A little backstory before I get to this week’s Yoga Adventures. One recent Friday I was off of work and decided to take a weekday yoga class. Ah! What a luxury! I knew there would be less people– maybe some stay-at-home parents and some retirees– which would mean space. Space that extended a foot or… Continue reading

The Daughter I Never Had
Being the only female in the house, I am The Minority. I’m the sole representative of All Things Female. Since I’m one of four people, I guess that makes me the twenty-five percenter. I AM THE 25%! Being female is not the only category for which I am The Minority. “The 75%” have been pushing… Continue reading

Belated Thoughts on World Autism Awareness Day
Yesterday, April 2, was World Autism Awareness Day, a day where we “recommit to helping individuals on the autism spectrum reach their full potential,” according to President Obama in yesterday’s Presidential Proclamation. I wasn’t sure what, if anything I wanted to say about World Autism Awareness Day as a parent of a special needs child.… Continue reading

The Rhythm of the Seasons
As my husband drove our family to North Jersey for Easter dinner, we listened to sports radio, a-flutter with news of basketball (both college and the NBA) and opening day for baseball. We chatted that we couldn’t believe that baseball was starting up again, and that tomorrow is April. “The rhythm of the seasons,” my… Continue reading

The Weekend Getaway

Well, any local New York Knicks fan around the turn of the millenium could sing along with the commercial that we were forced to listen… Continue reading

Christmas, and this is what his father sends me: It’s 2 AM Christmas Day, and this is what his father sends me. As if I don’t feel guilty enough. I couldn’t help it. I… Continue reading

Friday Fun with Ferris!
I planned on writing my 50 Shades of Grey post today, but I had a crap day at work, and my 50 Shades post, believe it or not, seems to require a lot of brain power. Moreso than the author put into the actual book, I’m afraid. I never take notes on posts, and I… Continue reading

Giggle Girl
As you all know, I try to attend yoga class twice a week. My yoga classes are held at a gym– a regular gym with rows of treadmills and ellipticals, a basketball and racquetball court, and even a “Cardio Cinema” (Basically, it’s a movie theater that substitutes cardio machines for seats. Ingenious.). The good thing… Continue reading

Bonkers at Bingo
In addition to tuition for JC’s enrollment in private school, my husband and I are required to accumulate thirty “service points” per year. The school offers many options for obtaining points, but the best “bang for your buck” points-wise, for working parents at least, is to work Bingo. Yes, Bingo. “We” (by that I mean,… Continue reading
