I’ve Got 8 Bottles of Frisky-Hued Nail Polish, So What the Heck Am I Still Doing in NY?

Posted on July 11, 2012 by NorthernChicky

I’ve been dragging my feet lately regarding our move to either the Cape or Myrtle Beach. And the reason is the weather. Putting aside the slight drought, it’s been gorgeous just about every single day. Closing your eyes and sipping a cool drink is a lot easier than poring over thousands of houses. Dreaming of … Continue reading »

Why is There Alpaca Fur on the Floor in my Children’s Room?

Posted on May 21, 2012 by NorthernChicky

I am a LOVER of surprises… What I am NOT a lover of, is coming home and discovering a white floor covering in my 6 and 8 year old daughters bedroom. Especially when this white floor covering is actually an eight foot by five foot, white alpaca fur rug. Did I mention it’s white? “Daddy … Continue reading »

The Man Who Lives In the Woods Behind My House…

Posted on May 14, 2012 by NorthernChicky

Sssshhhh…. There is an old man who lives in the wide expanse of woods behind my house. He committed a hideous crime – it was so bad, I can’t even describe it – and was sent to prison. Life sentences – nine of them. He was a very clever, very shrewd man, and in 1999, … Continue reading »

All I Want for Mother’s Day is to be Naked in Peace.

Posted on May 11, 2012 by NorthernChicky

I am NOT very pleased with the person who taught my youngest to jimmy locked doors. I am particularly perturbed at that person when I’m in the shower and I never hear the door open – just the whoosh of my pink-on-pink shower curtain before the icy breeze grabs at my exposed body parts (for some … Continue reading »

“Chopped Testicles, Mommy? Are You Delighted?”

Posted on May 7, 2012 by NorthernChicky

First of all – Happy Teacher Appreciation Week to anyone who has a child in their life since we are all always teaching them lessons through our words and our actions. I had the wonderful luxury of staying in my big, puffy bed and snuggling all weekend . OK, that translates into – I was (still am) annoyingly sick … Continue reading »

Oh Dear God, Don’t Sit On the Pineapple!!

Posted on May 2, 2012 by NorthernChicky

You are about to be the first to find out. I’m dumping Bob. He’s just not hot anymore. I admit that I have been rough on him lately – using him around the clock, over and over. I suppose I had to expect him to just get tired and stop responding the way I need … Continue reading »

Today’s Dilemma – Balls or Birds?

Posted on April 29, 2012 by NorthernChicky

Yep, I’m one of THOSE. A “coupon clipper”. And this morning I am devoting a tiny chunk of time to “cutting money out of circulars”, with the help of, of course, my two littlest. My three year old is learning how to read and is “delighting” me with every word she reads – “Are you … Continue reading »

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?

“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 »
