Clover: February 2015
http://theworldaccordingtoclover.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 14, 2015. Happy Valentine's Day Daddy! Friday, February 13, 2015. Thursday, February 12, 2015. Birthday didn’t scare me. I was kind of looking forward to entering a new decade. I told myself all kinds of things that are mostly true. Stuff like, age is just a number…The older you get, the more comfortable you are in your own skin…40 is the new 30…. I’m here to tell you that was a bunch of crap. The second I turned 40, stuff started falling apart. I mean, MY. So here I am, just a few day...

Clover: November 2012
http://theworldaccordingtoclover.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 27, 2012. This time of year I feel so abandoned by the sun. Dramatic. I know. It’s true though. I take winter personally. I hate to be cold. Hate it. And I know that I’m destined to feel like this until about mid May. Maybe even June. Bummer. I am already planning my future as a snowbird. It might happen sooner than later, because Sweet Pea informed me tonight that she’s going to go to college in Hawaii. Smart girl. Why didn’t I think of that? Tuesday, November 13, 2012. I got REALLY ma...

Clover: Adding things faster than I can get them crossed off.
http://theworldaccordingtoclover.blogspot.com/p/as-it-turns-out-my-bucket-list-is.html
Adding things faster than I can get them crossed off. As it turns out my bucket list is mostly the places I want to go, and what I want to eat when I get there. I AM going to launch an etsy site. Soon. Let’s put a date on that. How about July 1, 2010. When my kids are older I would like to spend a vacation giving back. Mr. G has a second cousin who runs an orphanage in Mexico. Or maybe we could help build houses with Habitat for Humanity. Or do some environmental restoration. There is a place not far fro...

Clover: November 2013
http://theworldaccordingtoclover.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 21, 2013. I’m not in love with the GoldieBlox commercial that’s making the rounds on Facespace. (You can watch it here. In my overblown imagination, I’m pretty sure that admitting that, in print, on the internet is going to cause some sort of epic fallout akin to Mitt Romney’s notebooks full of women. Maybe I have to turn in my feminist card or something…but, uh. Yeah. This video makes me squirm. From 2012 that gives some depressing facts:. Only one in seven engineers is female. How co...

The second I turned 40, stuff started falling apart. I mean, MY. For starters, I woke up on my 40th birthday with a really horrible rash. Also, I will spare you the details.

Clover: January 2014
http://theworldaccordingtoclover.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 31, 2014. I was just about to type something about not having made a New Year’s Resolution for the last few years. And then I remembered posting that fireworks picture that you can (sadly) still see just a couple posts below this one. So I reread last year’s resolutions. Last January was kind of a craptastic time for our little crew. I am happy to report that while we are still working through some things, the sun is shining and I am not quite as angry as I was at the start of 2013. You a...

http://theworldaccordingtoclover.blogspot.com/2015/01/facebook-and-i-had-our-first-big-fight.html
Thursday, January 29, 2015. Facebook and I had our first big fight right before Christmas, and I thought we might break up. At the very least, it was clear that I needed some time to figure a few things out. But after a few days of being apart I realized that I missed Facebook. I mean…I thought that maybe by taking a break I would realize how much time I wasted on my news feed. I thought maybe life was whizzing past me while I was watching Dear Kitten videos. I mean, Facebook certainly serves its purpose.

Tuesday, February 25, 2014. I took Sweet Pea with me to a baby shower on Sunday. She spent a good chunk of it with a tiny 6 week old baby girl sleeping sweetly in her lap, while I walked and swayed the snoozing twin sister. Ever since we left the party it’s been a full court press from both kids about having a baby brother or sister. Sweet Pea has had the Birds n’ Bees talk, so she is advocating for adoption. So he would like me to have another baby please and thank you. Both kids are working it. Mommy, ...
