It's the first Friday of November and time for Friday Fails! Have you ever forgotten to plug the slow cooker in on your way out the door? Have you ever left your laundry in the washing machine for a couple days? Pee-yew. Am I the only mother who has found her child wearing shoes on the wrong feet? Thanks Dad! I'd love for you to join the party! Read details here. To be perfectly honest I can't think of a huge "fail" that I've ...

Friday Fails – Mom’s Eventful Sunday
Today I'm telling on my mom. Hehe. She knows I'm telling on her, so it's all good! This past Sunday was a crazy day for Mom. After getting breakfast served and Sunday dinner preparations made, Mom always has to get dressed and ready for church in a hurry. This time it caught up with her. As the church service was coming to a close, she all-of-a-sudden realized that she had forgotten to put her makeup on. Oops! :) Fail. Mom said ...
Friday Fails – The Barn Door
A week ago my sister and I toted our children out early and hit up a fabulous estate sale. We each got some wonderful finds...one of which I'll be sharing with you next week - a makeover. :) We were looking around in the barn when my eyes fell on the most awesome barn door.

Friday Fails – The Burnt Meat Version
I get so much joy from sharing the crazy stuff that I do. I honestly don't "try" to be crazy, but I guess motherhood (or maybe it's age) has just taken it's toll on my brain cells. I love laughing at myself. It's great stress relief to share my stories with you and to hear that I'm not alone in my insanity. Ha! So, on to this week. Did you gag when you read the title of this post? I did just writing it. Major gross. So Saturday ...
Friday Fails – Total Ditz Moments
Surely I'm not the only woman walking around with mommy-brain, baby-brain, teenager-brain, right? Welcome to the insane asylum party where we give up self-respect and reveal our failures. It's a laugh fest! :) This past Saturday night, I left Ernie and Ridley watching a "riveting" football game while I drove to Publix for a few groceries. I rarely get out by myself at night, so I relished the silence. On my way home, I kept noticing how ...
Friday Fails – Sugar vs. Oatmeal
Recently, when I was making oatmeal for Ridley's breakfast I did the dumbest thing. After the steel cut oats were cooked, I grabbed what I thought was turbinado sugar... Except it wasn't sugar. It was the bag of steel cut oats. Let's just say that the oatmeal was a little extra crunchy that day. {snort} I'm brilliant. Especially in the morning before I've cleared my brain and eyes. Ha! What is the craziest thing you've done ...
