Maybe next year I’ll be cool enough to pull off something like this…

Santa!
That was the text I just sent. To my 34 year old roommate. Every year in my town, Santa cruises through neighborhoods mounted atop a bedazzled firetruck. He waves at children who stream out of their houses, shouts “Ho! Ho! Ho!” and throws candy. It’s quite the scene. Here was my experience. I texted my…
One Cheeky Elf
This is my Elf on the Shelf, Cheeky. He’s come out of his eleven month hibernation to play again. So far he’s been pretty tame. Spending time with my roommates and of course, Will Ferrell. Welcome to the Christmas season, Cheeky. Thank you for being yourself and bringing a little glee to a time that…
Mary Poppins
I got a lot of stolen glances on my way into work last Thursday… and not the good kind. People flat out stared, whispered, did double takes, and cocked eye brows. Then the questions started: “Are you the super nanny?” “Are you Canadian?” Or, my personal favorite: “Are you from nutritional services? When will my…
Girl Scout vs. MacGyver
My inner Girl Scout fights with my inner MacGyver every time I travel. Here’s what I mean: I book a flight, pull out luggage, check the weather, make lists, and lay out piles of “necessities” for the trip. Of course I need two pairs of shoes, bug spray, shower shoes, Band-Aids, and two dozen pairs…
Just Because
Here’s your giggle for the day: I don’t know why adult, zip up, sock monkey, footie pajamas exist, but it makes me happy that they do.
Surprising Manicures
Meet Marla, my coworker and teammate extraordinaire. These are her hands. No, she did not paint her nails while impaired. She allowed one of our patients to paint her nails. We had goals to work on fine motor control and stability exercises for this little girl who loved to have her own nails painted. So…
Oy!
Anyone else feel this way today?
A Galaxy Far, Far Away…
I met R2D2 at work today. No joke. See? He came delivering an important message to some kids I was working with. He brought a storm trooper and Darth Vader with him (who incidentally had foreign accents… which made me giggle!) It was a delightful pause in a hectic day. I loved seeing the looks…
Adult Cereal?
Until this week I had no idea there were different classes of cereals. I knew some were healthier, some more vibrantly colored, but I found an inarguable distinction in the store. The adultness is present in the very names of these cereals. What kid would whine for Fiber Flakes or Colon Blow Clusters given…
