What Would YOU Do?

Posted on April 11, 2012 by NorthernChicky

My 5 daughters and I are spending today doing some VERY SERIOUS, LAST MINUTE debating whether we should move to our beloved Cape Cod, or be adventurous and opt for exciting (and MUCH WARMER) Myrtle Beach. What’s your vote?

Ticked Off…

Posted on April 9, 2012 by NorthernChicky

Our dress rehearsal on Saturday for Easter Sunday Mass went flawlessly. Big poofy, pastel dresses on my three littlest girls, and my tween and teen looked elegant in their new clothes. Socks, and shoes were matched and shiny, and ribbons were crisp. Every hair was in place and faces were fresh and glowing. We were … Continue reading »

Time To Sparkle!

Posted on April 5, 2012 by NorthernChicky

Easter is one of the most exciting holidays – signifying rebirth and a brand new, exciting beginning – full of beauty and wonder (like our move to either Cape Cod or Myrtle Beach). Today we go crazy and decorate everything in sight with pastel colors. And glitter. LOTS and LOTS of glitter.

“Mommy? Do Convuwtabulls Have Wids?”

Posted on March 30, 2012 by NorthernChicky

Yep. I got sucked into it. The whole $600-odd million megabucks lottery tonight. I have been holed up in my studio for the better part of this past year when I have not packing for our move to Myrtle Beach, and a vacation is certainly high on my list of priorities at this point. Maybe … Continue reading »

“Mommy? Do you think Grandpa’s ghost will follow us to Myrtle Beach?”

Posted on March 11, 2012 by NorthernChicky

Today is the one year anniversary of the earthquake and tsunami in Japan. It is also the anniversary of my Daddy’s death. My last post ended with  my doorbell ringing. There wasn’t anyone there when I answered, and oddly enough, I was not at all surprised. Ever since my father passed away, little weird things … Continue reading »

Happy Birthday to Me!!!

Posted on March 6, 2012 by NorthernChicky

Yes, I have collected yet another sparkling jewel to add to my necklace of life. It’s growing longer and more beautiful with every passing year. I can never understand why people get upset with age. To me it’s another year of life’s internship completed, making us that much more valuable to this magnificent “company” we … Continue reading »

“Just Don’t Make Him – Don’t Make Anyone – Your Meatloaf!”

Posted on February 29, 2012 by NorthernChicky

I woke up this morning with a tingling burst of schoolgirl excitement. Today is the beginning of my “birthday octave” – the eight days before and the eight days after my birthday. The two week period where I get special treatment and goodies from my family – little things like breakfast in bed, dishes being done … Continue reading »

“Mommy? Why Do You Get to Eat Chicken Wings for Breakfast?”

Posted on February 27, 2012 by NorthernChicky

“Mommy? Why do you get to eat chicken wings for breakfast?” asked a sleepy little voice this morning. Yikes! I hate it when they sneak up on you when you’re just in that moment of private delight. Like right now, when I was getting ready to eat my spicy leftover chicken wings before the girls … Continue reading »
