I have this friend.
We’ll call her Angela (because she never reads my blog and that’s her real name).
Angela and I have known each other since graduate school. I know ALL her secrets and she knows half of mine.

…Wasteland Style
People, I’ve been lurking around social media all weekend.
I’ve seen your adorable children in their pastel bunny ears/Seersucker suits/frilly dresses.
I’ve seen you dyeing eggs, hiding eggs, finding eggs, cracking eggs, and making egg salad.
I’ve seen your plethora of decorations, [...]
Better late than never, right?
I won’t bore you with the details of my domestic bliss.
Suffice it to say that I’ve been buried under a ton of laundry and spending my spare time swapping out the winter/spring clothes.
(Of course, by doing that I’m basically guaranteeing an April snowstorm in Kentucky.)
Anykarma, I wanted to [...]

I’ve never been that gal, y’all.
But today I have a guest posts at Dysfunctional Supermom and at Think Spin. Both of these blogs/bloggers are favorites of mine.
I’m still stuck at a conference in the middle of nowhere.
Literally.
I was able to secure a much coveted seat [...]
This is a guest post by the fabulous Annie at A Stone’s Throw From Insanity.
This morning the temperature dipped into the upper 30′s, so when I went to wake up my sleeping bear, Ellerie, she decided to be very two, and bury herself under the comforters. I snuggled my way [...]
It looks like we’re going to have a slow weekend at Casa de Wasteland.
The boys are excited to see the new Wimpy Kid movie.
I’m not excited to do 13 loads of laundry and clean (or find ways to avoid cleaning) the house.
