What's What

How are my fabulous readers??


I must apologize for my absence but I took a short beach vacation (yes another one) and had no cell phone service (thank goodness)!  But don't you worry my little hiatus has given me lots and lots to think about and write about you.


Please enjoy this week's what's what!

1.  Political Animals


Is a new show starting on USA tomorrow night and this political junkie can't wait to watch it.  I'm trying to add new shows to my repertoire that don't include the word "wives" in them.  This show has a great cast and seems like it will be fast passed maybe I can even convince the hubs to watch :)








2.  Nike Running Shorts


So the hubs signed us up for a 4 mile race this weekend and as I was training this week my chubby little thighs kept rubbing together.  I had to solve this problem immediately and wouldn't you know it that Nike had the answer.  I love, love this shorts with the bike shorts already built in and I slugged through my run chafe free!!










3.  Sushi at Houstons on West Paces Ferry


I love sushi and eat it often but one of my besties Amy has turned me onto the sushi at the Houstons off West Paces Ferry and I'm a bit obsessed.  It is so fresh and just a bit of a twist on the traditional sushi I normally eat.  My favorite roll is the thai crunch and I have literally gone there twice this week to get it!

The Truth, The Whole Truth and Nothing But The Truth

I don't really want to write this post.  I want to crawl in my bed, with the covers over my head and watch the real housewives of nyc seasons 1 and 2 (before Jill and Bethenny hate each other).  I don't want to talk to anyone, see anyone or answer my phone.  In fact it's been on silent for the past three days.   I am writing this post because I started this blog as a living, breathing diary.  It is a fluid documentation of my life and what is going on right now.  Unfortunately what is going on right now isn't a fun trip, a great product recommendation or a great style entry... it is real life.   This week something sad happened to me and the hubs, we had a miscarriage.  I will tell you that I hate the word miscarriage it seems clinical to me.  What I have said is we lost the baby because that is how it feels to me.   Without boring you or scaring you with too many details I knew something wasn't exactly right.  I started bleeding and was away from home and my

I'm Jealous Of My Husband

I have to be honest I almost didn't publish this post.  This is a real and raw post.  I finally hit publish because I figured I couldn't be the only one feeling this way. I will tell you I didn't know I was jealous of Matt at first.  I knew I was angry, resentful, overwhelmed and afraid.  As a wife and mother the to do list seems never ending.  Whether you work or not being a mother is one of the hardest jobs, if not the hardest job on the planet.   Matt and I are blessed to both have fulfilling careers and therefore we have someone who helps us 5 days a week.   For a long time I felt bad for being a working mother.  I've made my peace with that.  I am now thankful instead of guilty.  It was a long road but I'm in a good place with it.  I'm not saying that from time to time I don't wrestle with working and being mother but on the whole I am comfortable with my choice.   So when these feelings started creeping up I thought it was working mother's gu

A Sad Season

I have to tell you that these past few months and perhaps this year have been hard and yes sad.  My mother told me when we were talking about it that I was experiencing "a sad season" and I have to agree. Now this doesn't mean that everything has been awful, sad and terrible.  I haven't been in bed for weeks at a time with the covers over my head watching trash tv.  Instead I feel like it has been one of those times were the hits just keep on coming.  The bad news just keeps rolling in like ocean waves.  It has been a time of tremendous loss and sadness.  The events that have occurred aren't the same but it felt like every time I would get my ahead above water something else would happen.   It has been difficult because there are happy times mixed in to all of the sad.  In those times of happiness I have genuinely tried to be in the moment but my heart wasn't in the right place.  My heart has not felt happy and there has been an undercurrent of sadness tha
