What I did last summer

It’s been a crazy summer. I spent my days outside with the kids and my nights at Channel 12, filling in for an anchor on maternity leave. Then there was the big basement flood, and that whole reconstruction process, which is still underway.

May 8, 2011 by Shannon  |  2 Comments

Sometimes, I feel a little bogged down by motherhood. I get frustrated. I get annoyed that I have to strategize in order to accomplish the most basic of tasks. Because let’s face it – keeping a household running while you have a baby on your hip and a busy preschooler to corral is not the easiest of tasks…
