Notes from the Road Children

Pin itMy children always have various notes, hand-made posters, and bulletins posted around the house.  An anticipated guest might expect to be welcomed with “Come This Way —->”  signs about. And then, there are the obligatory “Your Name Here‘s Room” signs.  But sometimes they give me such a laugh, I have to share!  Walking down [...]

The Convenience Store Which Must be Blogged

Pin itI had a “Mom of the Year” moment a couple of weeks ago that I just had to share. After hearing this story, you’ll either come to the conclusion that I am a bungling kook, or this is the worst convenient store experience ever. (I technically said, “worst experience,” not “worst store,” don’t sue [...]

Yesterday, he walked right into the yard, at which time I hurriedly screamed called to my husband, “Quick! Put some food out front! Hurry!” Hubby and kids shook the food [...]

If He Leaves Someone Else for You, He’ll Do It To You as Well!

Pin itHe’s been with me for about 12 years. He’s been a companion, a playmate; he’s been great with the kids. The only complain I have had over the past 12 years is about his copious bathroom habits. Anyway, I regret to say that he left another family before he came with me. They really [...]

Dear Mr. Orchestra Director…

Pin itAs a middle school band and orchestra teacher, my husband has many comical interaction with parents. (and some not-so-comical, if you know what I mean) This letter was too good not to blog, and we got permission from the mom, who obviously has a great sense of humor.

Things You Only See in the Rural South #1

Pin itA group of young men in the Taco Bell parking lot, roping each other. No, not groping, roping, as in… cowboy hats, jeans, and rodeo ropes. No lie. I must say, while being strange, it was also pretty entertaining. Maybe they need to start a new rodeo category, cowboy wrangling. A bunch of cowboys [...]

The Laundry CAN’T wait!

Pin itI’m ashamed to admit this. But true to “Real Life” doctrine of admitting I’m not the perfect mom and housewife, here it goes. This morning, as I got out of the shower, and began to get dressed, I looked in my und*rwear drawer, only to find… NO und*rwear. Well, actually, there were und*rwear: the [...]

I WANT this CD!!

Pin itFriday’s Frugal Feast is on vacation today, because I don’t have time to think of anything! How’s that for “Real Life?” At least I’m honest. In it’s place is a hilarious video by comedian Tim Hawkins, called Kids’ Rock. I WANT this CD! How about you? Follow RealLifeSarah on Twitter

Am I the Only One?…

Pin it… who thinks somebody should make a computer desk that’s connected to a treadmill? Or a stationary bike? The eliptical would be kind of hard because of all the bouncing. As my blog has grown, so has my behind, and I think there is a direct correlation! Someone please steal this idea and market [...]

Real Men Never Go the Same Way Twice

Pin it Most men agree that they will rarely ask directions. If they’re not sure where to go next, they are at least sure that this road just has to get us there somehow. Don’t get me wrong. I admire this in a man. It was just this type of pioneer spirit that brought the [...]
