Just Outside the Loop. Celebrating NOT having it all together. Tuesday, July 12, 2011. Sarah Vs. the Black Thumb (part whatever the second). After returning from Indy I wandered to my back yard to water my plants that had been neglected for four days. Apparently there was a really windy day at some point because the umbrella from our patio set had been whipped from its stand and the main post wrenched in two. Seriously.the metal just sheared off.I'm amazed. Things that make me smile. Da Da Da DAH!

Just Outside the Loop: I Went to School for This?
http://justoutsidetheloop.blogspot.com/2011/07/i-went-to-school-for-this.html
Just Outside the Loop. Celebrating NOT having it all together. Wednesday, July 27, 2011. I Went to School for This? Gus is sick.again. Some sort of generic intestinal distress. Practically this translates into about ten poopy. Diapers a day and a moderately disgruntled toddler. We've been quarantined.again. Nothing to do in the house but read, and read, and read, and read. Oh! I forgot about that part. Weeks like this make me feel that my education is being wasted. July 28, 2011 at 7:22 AM. Notes from th...

Just Outside the Loop: Come Join the Pity Party
http://justoutsidetheloop.blogspot.com/2012/06/come-join-pity-party.html
Just Outside the Loop. Celebrating NOT having it all together. Wednesday, June 6, 2012. Come Join the Pity Party. Even medicated, he's completely miserable. And then I looked in his mouth and it's completely white. Thrush? That's not an emergency. So I'll wait till tomorrow to get him looked at. So 14 more hours of dealing with a squalling 12 lb. bundle solo. The other boy is covered in a "heat rash" (says the allergist) that gets worse every day. Heat rash? Where is this stuff in the parenting books?

Just Outside the Loop: Humiliated? Or Humbled?

Just Outside the Loop. Celebrating NOT having it all together. Friday, June 29, 2012. They are so darling! Checkout ladies love my boys. I HATE that by the time we reach the checkout, it's all I can do to grit my teeth and growl "Thank you," and listen to the cashier and patrons behind me in line coo to Teddy. "Oh you were an unhappy boy weren't you! I could hear you two aisles over! There, there now, dry those tears, aww, there's a smile! You're a happy baby aren't you! Are you a good big brother? Did I...

Just Outside the Loop: Look!
http://justoutsidetheloop.blogspot.com/2011/07/look.html
Just Outside the Loop. Celebrating NOT having it all together. Wednesday, July 13, 2011. Gus has a new word-. Most of the three hours back from Indy (in addition to most of the last two days) he tugs my hand points at something "Look! Then I give whatever it is its name and he finds something else for me to name. I feel like Adam in the Bible. It's a feeling of great power, being the namer. Things that make me smile.

Just Outside the Loop: Mr. Mom
http://justoutsidetheloop.blogspot.com/2012/03/mr-mom.html
Just Outside the Loop. Celebrating NOT having it all together. Saturday, March 31, 2012. How 'bout something different? This week was horrible. Rob was out of town for a budget meeting in Missouri leaving me home alone with two sick kids all week. I've barely learned to juggle two kids when they are healthy. Two sick. No one can help because we are highly contagious? Yes we all stink, yes we missed you, oh, and I'm pretty sure there's leftover meatloaf in the fridge-help yourself! You and I need a vacati...

Just Outside the Loop: Just 'Happy Mother'
http://justoutsidetheloop.blogspot.com/2012/05/happy-mothers-day-to-me.html
Just Outside the Loop. Celebrating NOT having it all together. Tuesday, May 15, 2012. So much has happened this year, but these two pictures sum up the best of what has happened to me between last Mother's Day and this one:. My first-born brought me my first mangled dandelion. I've been trying to think of a clever title for it. "Mangled Love" or "The Thought That Counted" or "Sob, Sniffle, Choke." Or how about just what he said when he handed it to me. Here Mommy, I Bing You Frower! What a smart, calm,.
