Meine Schwester

My cool sister Sarah sent me these pictures -- clearly demonstrating why I like her WAY MORE than anyone else in my family.

Thank you, Panda Express, for greasy food and advice I mastered in the womb.

Ridiculous.

HOW DARE I try to shave my legs in the middle of the day. I don't deserve 15 MINUTES TO MYSELF, do I!?! HOW THE FUCK am I supposed to keep things up if I can't even shave my fucking legs.

Don't Tell Me...

...I already know I am a weird mom. And I'm glad I am--too many moms are teaching their kids that they're children of God, all about rainbows and fairies, and that their grandparents aren't bad people.
But in the Lyman household, we prefer to be REAL. Strange, I know. But we like to be ourselves around our daughter so she can learn to be our friend. We have a lot of fun as we explore the world and learn new things.

Harder Than I Thought...

It's officially been 7 days without sugar. The only REALLY hard things have been passing up ice cream, dessert at Magelbys, and dreaming about Strawberry ice cream Slushes from Sonic. Wish me luck.

Dear Santa,

All I want for Christmas is to be her when I grow up. She's gorgeous.

~bridal showers~

I guess I understand the practicality of giving a young twenty-something girl a CROCK POT or HAND TOWELS at her bridal shower, but I prefer to give a gift with lasting benefit.

Feeling Better

Making my bed (even as late as 7pm) helps me feel better. Aaaaah, big sigh of relief.

Dita Von Teese

I love this lady.
Weird? Check.
Kinky? Check.
Hot as Hell? Check.

I'll Have One of Those, Please.

Okay, so maybe I didn't kill off my sinus infection, because I have had a 10-hour migraine!! Someone kill me now. Or inject me with botox. Yes, botox. I'm ready to try anything.

Let's Sit Down and Talk.

Here is Rachel's list of crucial things to discuss with your 2 year-old:
1. The holocaust. It happened, we can't ignore it.
2. Noah's Ark. It's a big farce and could never have really happened.
3. Santa Claus. Daddy likes to dress up in big red suits.
4. Plastic Surgery. Who does it and why they think they need it.
5. Hermaphrodites. Define and give examples.
6. Pubic Hair. Where it grows and why.
7. Drowning. Swimming in the deep end isn't all it's cracked up to be.
8. Gays/Lesbians. Why Timmy has 2 mommies and Uncle Kip likes boys.
9. Funerals. The best way to learn is to go to one.
10. Evil Spirits. Ghosts, exorcisms, and Ouija boards.

WHY!?

Why do I have to have a sinus infection AND be on my period at the same time!?!


Not cool.

Inspire Me

I gathered a few photos of one of my favorite things: Chandeliers. Way to kick a room up to first class by adding one of these gorgeous embellishments. Hmmmm, someday.

If only it were this easy...


Losing the weight I'm trying to lose is harder than I thought! I guess that's what you get for waiting until it's almost too late!
