Stepmother In The Suburbs: February 2010
http://www.stepmotherinthesuburbs.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Who's Kid Is It? Now that is true. When people ask me how many children I have, which happens a lot, I always say, “Six.” Most often, people give me a horrified look that says no-wonder-you-look-like-hell. But I always clarify, “My three middle children are my stepchildren. They live half the time with us and the other half with their mother, who lives three blocks away.”. When I add that little bit of information, I almost always get the pity look, too. I could never do that to one of our kids. 8220;Tod...

Stepmother In The Suburbs: September 2009
http://www.stepmotherinthesuburbs.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
I am the second wife and mother. And the truth is that I am always kind of comparing myself to the “original.”. For example, one really hot Spring Saturday afternoon, after attending three different soccer games for my three stepchildren, I found myself standing next to my husband on his ex-wife’s front porch, looking through her screen door. The idea of paying. They both thought I was a lunatic. Instead, the only thing I accomplished was cementing my image as an. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). My name is D...

Stepmother In The Suburbs: October 2009
http://www.stepmotherinthesuburbs.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
This picture is not staged. This morning my stepson’s mother dropped off his suitcase at our house and this is how she found me standing in the driveway. This is exactly what I looked like. I had just gotten back home from driving my littlest kids to school and she watched me get out of my car. Labels: Looking My Best.

Success In The Suburbs: I'm Not A Bitch! I Just Have Allergies!
http://successinthesuburbs.blogspot.com/2010/04/im-not-bitch-i-have-allergies.html
I'm Not A Bitch! I Just Have Allergies! For the last several years I have been tormented by splitting headaches. I was always tired, too. A simple trip to the park with the kids left me feeling exhausted. In typical guilty mother form, I felt bad for feeling so bad. But last year I had a knee surgery. And, for the first time in our family's medical history, we met our health insurance deductible so I went crazy! I went to an allergist. I called it the "ungrateful bitch syndrome.". But I have allergies!

Success In The Suburbs: Blue Ice on Lake Huron
http://successinthesuburbs.blogspot.com/2011/03/blue-ice-on-lake-huron.html
Blue Ice on Lake Huron. I have never seen anything like this. It seems that huge piles of. Are a phenomena that can happen in the Great Lakes, on occasion. We found this formation off of a sandy shore of Lake Huron near. Cheboygan Michigan State Park. It was beautiful. I begged my family (and one of Lizzy’s friends from college) not to climb on it. They all poo-poohed me and had a great time while I fussed and worried. The pictures are beautiful. March 11, 2011 at 12:40 AM. March 11, 2011 at 7:51 AM.

Success In The Suburbs: Chores
http://successinthesuburbs.blogspot.com/2009/11/chores.html
I looked a little bit like Flick, in the beginning of the movie Bug’s Life, when he was marching around with his one man band grain harvesting system. Like Flick, I saw immense practicality in my little get-up. I walked up to her van with a big smile. She rolled down the passenger side window, leaned towards me and offered, flatly, “Kip’s Lawn Service can do that for $30.”. In those few seconds, I went from feeling like a hard working entrepreneurial ant to feeling like a big dumb unsophisticated country...

This picture represents all that I love about myself. That funny little quirky talented girl that can't resist a challenge and loves to wow the crowd every now and then.
