Gingers Mom: Ch-ch-ch-changes
http://gingersmom.blogspot.com/2011/07/ch-ch-ch-changes.html
We can do it. Monday, July 25, 2011. This year is a year full of changes. We moved from Hawaii to San Diego. We bought a house. My husband will be deploying this year. My youngest child will be starting Kindergarten. I'll be a Stay at Home Mom with no kids at home during the day. So while I am in the throws of a serious identity crisis I have come up with a lot of different ideas for filling my time this coming fall while I am all on my lonesome. 3 Get a part time job. What to do, what to do. If you are ...

Gingers Mom: Backhanded Love
http://gingersmom.blogspot.com/2011/10/backhanded-love.html
We can do it. Wednesday, October 05, 2011. My little Brady has a big heart. When he feels the love it just oozes out of him as though he will burst if it's not expressed and showered upon those around him. (this goes for when he is in a bad mood to, mind you) But it is something I admire about him. I smiled, recognizing the little game we play. "Is it me? He beamed and hugged me enthusiastically. UmI think you need to shave those.". You can always count on a kid to point out stuff like THAT! Links for 20...

Gingers Mom: Luxury Pet Bed
http://gingersmom.blogspot.com/2013/03/luxury-pet-bed.html
We can do it. Thursday, March 07, 2013. Lately I have been experimenting with several home projects and Pinterest ideas. My latest venture fell into my lap. I saw this cabinet on the side of the road, waiting for garbage day! It was pretty gross, and my daughter was fairly disgusted but I hauled it home. I saw a recipe for DIY Chalk Paint and jumped right in - after another super fun trip to Home Depot. I bought Turquoise and Pink flat interior paint and Non-Sanded Grout in white. Away we go! Links for 2...

Gingers Mom: Control
http://gingersmom.blogspot.com/2011/09/control.html
We can do it. Tuesday, September 20, 2011. I had an epiphany this week. About parenthood. It seems in our society today we have a certain level of expectations for children. Particularly in Christian circles, but you can see it in all kinds of groups. How well do you "control" your children? If you have wild, woolly and free spirits like I do - you know what I am talking about. We are judged as parents by how well our kids listen, behave and respond to our directions.

http://gingersmom.blogspot.com/2011/09/sarcasm-101.html
We can do it. Tuesday, September 06, 2011. Red: Mommy, why don't you like peace symbols? GingersMom: Because they don't represent peace, the represent socialism. GM: People who believe in things we don't believe in. Red: You mean like unicorns? GM: Yes. Exactly like unicorns. Ha ha ha ha. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Mom of 3 hooligans.

Gingers Mom: Military Spouse Appreciation Day
http://gingersmom.blogspot.com/2011/05/military-spouse-appreciation-day.html
We can do it. Friday, May 06, 2011. Military Spouse Appreciation Day. I think there is. You have to decide for yourself. Other spouses get married and look forward to building equity in a home and putting down family roots. Military spouses get married and know they'll live in base housing or rent, and their roots must be short so they can be transplanted frequently. Other spouses say good-bye to their spouse for a business trip and know they won't see them for a week. They are lonely, but can surviv...

Gingers Mom: Cool Program to Keep Me From Going Bonkers
http://gingersmom.blogspot.com/2011/07/cool-program-to-keep-me-from-going.html
We can do it. Saturday, July 09, 2011. Cool Program to Keep Me From Going Bonkers. A friend of mine recently recommended a program to me called Accountable Kids. My kids get up in the morning and do their "core chores" (the chores every member has to do because they are a member of our family) and I don't have to remind them.at least not a fraction as much. After the first week of not running out the door screaming. "We're late.get in the car! The basic program is like this:. 3 Best Behavior Cards - thes...

Gingers Mom: You. Are. SOOOOOOOOOOO. Embarrassing.
http://gingersmom.blogspot.com/2011/08/you-are-sooooooooooo-embarrassing.html
We can do it. Thursday, August 04, 2011. You Are. SOOOOOOOOOOO. Embarrassing. I knew this day was coming. One day my little girl who used to look up at me with such admiration and awe would see me an roll her eyes and be mortified. What I DIDN'T know was that I would become this giant loser by the time she was only 8. Lucky for me there are still glimmers of her being impressed by me. Like when the girls in her 3rd grade class begged her to have me (ME! Maybe I can get a bumper sticker too. 4 Wear nothin...

Gingers Mom: Resurfacing Countertops
http://gingersmom.blogspot.com/2013/03/resurfacing-countertops.html
We can do it. Monday, March 18, 2013. Old formica countertops. They look worse in person. I knew that the daily use in a kitchen might be too much for that process. I did A LOT of research, as is my obsessive way when I want to do something new. You've gotta check out their tutorial video. My Craigslist score - $20! My awesome custom table! I had a pal come over and experience the process with me and it was a lot of fun. First layer of copper. Spaz My second attempt went very smoothly. FOLLOW THE DIR...
