Things to do when Instagram and Facebook are Down

March 13, 2019 by thiscoolmom 1 Comment

Welp, today is one of those days that we fear. Not only is Instagram down, but Facebook is not working either. To some, this is not major news. To the lucky non-social media obsessed folks, I am jealous of you today. Unfortunately for me, this is a major problem. I admit that FB and the gram take up wayyy to much of my time. If you are reading this post, you are probably ... Read More

I Need a Vacation

It's been a long week for many reasons. If you are looking for a positive, uplifting post, you might want to move along. To start, our bank account was hacked- AGAIN. Four times in the last year.

      Day 20 of the Whole30 and seriously this is no freaking joke.  Supposedly, my cravings should be gone by now.  They’re not.  I can’t stop thinking about mac and cheese, wine, pizza and chocolate chip cookies.  Oh, and Dunkin Donuts vanilla iced coffee with cream and sugar. Going to Wegmans today did not help the situation.  Have you ever had ... Read More

Thanks for visiting my blog, which is a work in progress. I'm a (cool) mom & wife with a full time job, trying to balance it all. My interests include Pinot Grigio, Netflix, blogging, fashion, the treadmill & reading celeb gossip when I am not busy packing lunches & wiping butts. Cheers!
