Catching Up on Some Excuses

October 20, 2012 By Dana White 8 Comments

I'm behind on my (lame) excuse posts. Sorry. I missed Thursday because I was out most of the day, and couldn't find a moment to write.  I missed Friday because I was putting up a post about my new appliances from Maytag.  And I really couldn't come up with a way to make that an excuse! Give me time . . . I'm sure I'll come up with … [Read more...]

My New Maytag Appliances!

October 19, 2012 By Dana White 7 Comments

Last week, something incredible happened.  It involved opening my front door. It also involved bringing people in (whom I'd never met before) and letting them look at, in, and around my kitchen. But it's okay because . . . my new appliances from Maytag were delivered!!  Yes, I'm crazy-excited about being a Maytag Mom, but I'm mostly … [Read more...]

Excuse #752 It’s ALL NONY’S FAULT

October 17, 2012 By Dana White 4 Comments

Today, I'm publishing a comment left by one of you as a guest post.  Slob with OCD wrote this If-You-Give-a-Mouse-a-Cookie-esque comment a few days ago, and it tickled me so much I wanted to feature it!   If it weren’t for Nony . . . I wouldn’t have been hand washing cereal bowls this morning. If she hadn’t been so funny I never would have … [Read more...]

(Lame) Excuse: “But I Don’t Have a Nail . . . “

October 16, 2012 By Dana White 2 Comments

I almost changed the title to "But I Lost the Nail . . . " Except that's actually true. And the point of this post (as it was being written inside my head yesterday) is that my excuse isn't really an excuse. This time, it's a lie. I'd been telling myself that I didn't have a nail, so for months I'd had a missing picture from my dining … [Read more...]

(Lame) Excuse: “But It’s Just ONE Load . . . “

October 15, 2012 By Dana White 7 Comments

It's Monday.  Sooooo, obviously . . . it's Laundry Day. The best/smoothest/make-me-feel-like-I've-got-this-homemaker-thing-down Laundry Days begin on Sunday evening. So last night we gathered and sorted last week's dirty clothes and I started a load of towels. (Towels are my favorite Sunday Night Start Load because I can put them in the … [Read more...]

(Lame) Excuse: “But It Doesn’t Fit in the Dishwasher . . . “

October 14, 2012 By Dana White 12 Comments

  This goes along with my post from last week.  Actually, I took the pictures on the same night. See . . . in my mind there's doing the dishes. And then there's doing the big dishes. For some reason, they're two separate things. Even though they're not. Because even if I "do the dishes" but I leave the colander and the baking … [Read more...]

No Excuse to Not Help Raise Money for Cancer Research!

October 13, 2012 By Dana White 4 Comments

I really love working with the North Texas Chevy Dealers as a Chevy Girl.  All of their promotions are fun and easy to blog about. But this one is easiest of all because it's for an important cause.  And they have helped eliminate any and all excuses to not help! October is breast cancer awareness month.  Breast cancer runs in my family.  … [Read more...]

(Lame) Excuse: “But it’s a Hassle . . . “

October 12, 2012 By Dana White 16 Comments

When my oldest was between the ages of 3 1/2 and 4 1/2 (I know because we were living in our rent house), he came to me with some exciting news. He had figured out something cool. Something that would surely be a new and exciting revelation to his mother. Because he knew, for a fact . . . that this was something I did not know. He had … [Read more...]

(Lame) Excuse: “But No One Will Go in THAT Room . . . “

October 11, 2012 By Dana White 6 Comments

Crazy day today. My appliances are being delivered!!! To say I'm excited is an understatement. I had a hard time sleeping last night. The delivery was scheduled for 8 a.m. and yesterday was my busiest day of the week. And I was out of town last week. And Monday was spent with my family on their day off from school. And Tuesday I … [Read more...]
