Wow if I'd only held out a few more weeks, I could claim that it's been an entire year since my last posting.  Either that means I have an extremely boring life - not likely or I have just been really really really busy.  Maybe it's time to retire the lawnmower.  It's not the muse it once was.

Almost eight months after the last posting - not too bad in terms of staying current.  At least the kids keep up with their part of the site.  Although I think I've caught them a few times sneaking in a previous week's post the day before the following week's posting is due to go up.  I guess I can't be too rough on them considering they are 2 1/2+ and 10 months.

I wonder at what point in a parent's life does one stop having kid songs constantly floating around in their heads?  I mean it is becoming quite ridiculous.  I find myself humming "Victor Vito" in the shower or singing that annoying intro song to Dragon Tails while on the computer - and we don't even watch Dragon Tails!  It even plagues me in the wee hours of the morning as I am nursing at 3:00 a.m. to the tune of  "Googleberry Pie" from Make Way for Noddy.  Maybe in my free time I will start a support group helping parents with similar afflictions cope.  We could eat cake and deprogram by listening to more appropriate old school cheesy earworm tunes that get stuck in your head e.g. Milli Vanilli's "Girl you know it's True" or MC Hammer's "Can't Touch This."

What is this all about you are probably asking yourself.  Well simply, I was actually inspired to start writing here early this morning.  After surviving another night of very broken sleep, trying to soothe an unhappy baby and rushing downstairs to let the dog out (before he barked and woke up Rachel), I desperately needed to pee.  As soon as the dog ran out, I in turn ran into the bathroom only to discover that there was a lawn mower parked in the potty.  Of course rather than move the mower, I navigated around it (it's a tiny bathroom), and as I sat had an epiphany.  It was time for me to start penning my thoughts.  I mean hey, it's not like I don't have enough on my plate already with taking care of two under two.  Hence the beginning of "A Lawnmower Parked in the Potty and other delusional musings."
