My husband skipped town for some content management conference. What does that mean for me? Single motherhood! I’ll report back to you in a couple of days to tell you if I’ve survived.

Well, it had to happen sometime. And it’s been a-brewin’. My kid is 20 months old. With that age comes plenty of new and tres exciting stuff, ya know? Like first-ever temper tantrums at the bookstore. Woo hoo! You’d think that zipping up a coat to protect him from the […]
