(originally posted November 24, 2010) I’ve been having recurring dreams for the last few weeks. It’s not recurring like falling dreams or being chased by a mobster dream. My recent visions all have the same theme, if you will. Lately, dream Beth has been dropped into a social situation, missing an important part of clothing. Think- meeting the president while not wearing … Continue reading

A Veggie Tale
I did not grow up an adventurous eater. In fact, the only green thing I would eat was green beans from a can. My parents tried to get me to eat peas, but a mother can only handle so much sighing at the dinner table so she finally gave up. In daycare, I would lick the … Continue reading
UAFMS #4: Con-flatulations
For those of you whose delicate sensibilities don’t allow you to read blogs that are about flatulation, then let me spare you. This blog has advice for my sister and I’m going to tell her to love and accept her fiance as he is. There- now you can quit reading and go back to wearing … Continue reading
2011: A Year in Review
Hello friends and family- If you were breathlessly checking your mailbox every day for a Christmas letter from Alex and Beth, you can breathe now. Here it is….in all its glory. Don’t get me wrong. I love sending people mail but I just bought replacement ink for our printer after months of us talking about … Continue reading
Unsolicited Advice for My Sister #3: Fight Clean
Alex and I don’t fight alot- only if we’re both hungry or we’re playing board games. If we’re hungry and playing board games, then someone’s going to get their eyebrows scratched off. Sometimes we start off “play arguing” and then it escalates into a situation. EXAMPLE: My car is my sanctuary. My dirty teenage girl … Continue reading
I’m in love. I’m in love. And I don’t care who knows it.
(Yesterday was my husband’s birthday. For his birthday present, I did not publicize (much) the fact that it is his birthday (since he hates celebrating it). But today, I am free to do as I please and I have decided to repost this blog. For those of you that don’t know, Alex and I met in late … Continue reading
Today is My B-day
Yep. That’s right. I turned the big…..Wait a minute. I’m not going to put my age on the internet (collective sigh from the identity thieves who are following my blog- searching for clues to cheat me out of my pocket change). Let’s just say that if you rounded my age to the nearest ten, it would … Continue reading
None In The Oven
Since all of you only read this blog to find out why there is a picture of Alex in a hospital bed or to find out if I am pregnant, I thought I would write a little ditty on why only one of those two things could be true. This blog might be controversial. I’m not … Continue reading
Rodney the Ram
I don’t know that there is a worse mascot than a ram. Perhaps the Itasca Wampus Cats, although that mascot is more AWESOME than lame. A ram just doesn’t strike fear into the heart of a Viking or a Unicorn. Especially if it’s named Rodney. I mean, what happened to Dirk or Ripsaw? In August, … Continue reading
T-Shirt Series #1: Fungus Amongus
{My younger sister went to Thailand to work at an orphanage this summer. You can read about her adventures here. She apparently found a t-shirt salesman who made t-shirts in English. Some of them are hilarious; some make no sense at all. She brought me 4 amazing little gems and I will blog about each of … Continue reading
