Welcome to the Show, Come inside, come inside

The kettle is on...the coffee is brewing...I had my young daughter make muffins...the potatoes are stewing...

Ah, what? You're not here for the evening of amateur poetry night? You're a coneseur of SiTS and BiTS?

Well, you can come in too! It's been ages, I'm glad to see ya!

Just to tell you a bit about myself...I'm Alex, married mom of five ranging from ages 18 to 1, and in hot pursuit of my sanity. If you see it lurking under a rug, or in some hidden corner, throw a bucket over it and let me know before you head out. It always seems to escape me, especially now that I've returned full fledged to the "working" mom field (ha ha ha...that cracks me up...now that I've experienced being a SaHM the definition of "working" mom has forever changed). Please ignore the cobwebs, my blog has fallen into a slight state of disrepair. Nothing that scented candles can't cover up!

Anyway, welcome to my blog. I am honored and privileged to have been chosen as the Tuesday Featured Blogger. Welcome, welcome. May you enjoy my written word as much as I do (yes, there are times when I just crack myself up). Here are just a few of my favorites sure to bust your gut or water your eyes.

What is Old again is Now New
The Number you are trying to reach is no longer in service
You kiss your momma with that mouth?

Now that I've had my spiel, please feel free to read on. I've touched on just about every topic I could think of...and if you notice the lovely awards I've gotten over my blogging time, they are active links to brilliant people who think I'm brilliant too.

How could one go wrong with brilliance, especially if you have a great pair of shades.

Thanks for coming, and don't forget to take your gift dinner mints when you head out!

    Popping on in from SITS. Congrats on your big day. You are one funny lady. I especially loved your post about the pay phones because it made me conjur up a memory of my own about how I used to scrounge around the return coin slots in hopes of finding a errant quarter or two.(This was when I was a child. Not, like yesterday or something. I promise.) One day I hit pay-dirt and came away with like $1.50 or something. That was a highlight in my life. But now, alas, my children will never have the joy and pleasure of scrounging for quarters in a pay phone and that is a true travesty!

    LOVE the blog!

    First time to your blog via SITS! Congrats on your SITS day!
    About your post about the pay phones ~~~ we were on vacation last week and I actually saw one of those elusive things just sitting there on the corner in a small town. In all its glory! I remarked to my hubby "omigosh! There's a pay phone!" just as readily as if there were a moose walking down Main Street!
    Good Times indeed!
