SAHM I hate this phrase, and it really puts me off when people define themselves as one. It also puts me off when people (mostly men do this) define themselves by their careers. Closely related to the SAHM is the wo…
Quiet - or is it? Last night my sister left after a week's visit, and this morning my mother left. It would be quiet, except that Ben was throwing up all last night, trashing several sets of bed linens (doing major lau…
