The 9 Days of Sandy

November 7, 2012

Hurricane Sandy left us without power for 9 long days. As our situation became almost unbearable, I resorted to many different forms of distraction (alcohol being one of them), but I couldn’t get one particular song out of my head. I can’t hold a tune to save my life, but as I tried to fall […]

Ten Things I Learned About Myself During And After A Hurricane

November 3, 2012

During the Hurricane: I Panic During An Emergency. At the height of the storm, a gigantic oak tree fell on our neighbor’s house and exposed their entire master bedroom to our view.

October 17, 2012

Before I launched my blog, I briefly surveyed my friends and family on whether they liked the name OhBoyMom or if they had other suggestions.

Okay, truth be known, it’s not actually a patch but it’s a local church that trucks in the pumpkins from an official patch and sells them, with the proceeds going towards a local charity. I love […]

Why We Have A Girl Dog

October 5, 2012

It’s quite simple really. We have a female dog mainly so I can use the word “girl” in my house. In my house of boys, I can now say these phrases on a regular basis, thanks to Matilda, the other “woman” in the house: “C’mon girl.” “You’re such a pretty girl.” “Good girl!” “Hello girlfriend!” […]

A Good Coach Gone Bad

October 3, 2012

The coaches of Little Dude’s flag football team warned us that we’d be facing a tough team this past week. We just figured that meant they had good (and big) players, ran smart plays, and knew how to make touchdowns. Well, we were right about all those things, but what we didn’t assume was that […]
