I don’t care how old I am: I will never be able to walk slowly and calmly up the basement stairs after turning the light off down there.


Hellooooo out there! Pretend it hasn't been an entire year since I last posted here ( 😬 ) and allow me to reintroduce you to the blog that brought many of you here in the first place — now with actual new content! fightingfrumpy.com/2024/10/i-want…


I'm so excited about @SheKnows latest digital issue — all about teens and back-to-school! Featuring essays from the amazing @ElaineRothWrite and @whitebrownsugar 😍 sheknows.com/special-series…


Jerry Springer died and I’m shook and everyone at work is younger than me so they can’t fully appreciate that “Jer-ry, Jer-ry, Jer-ry” was the soundtrack of my youth.


It’s hard to drive by cows without pointing and saying, “Cows.”


I'm SO proud of the hard work that went into this issue! Stellar writing from @ElaineRothWrite, @theneonblonde, @WendyWisner, @E_Beardmore, @alexa_kellow, and more! A wonderful cover story featuring THE @tamronhall! Such an amazing job from the entire @SheKnows team. <3

.@tamronhall has adapted to new positions, such as helming her own talk show (@TamronHallShow🎉) & embraced new roles –– like becoming a mom to her son, Moses. This is all possible through the community, the ‘Tam Fam,’ she largely credits. Read her story: bit.ly/3SCSP0G

Michigan does not: Require background checks for long guns Have a red flag law Disarm domestic abusers Restrict assault weapons Limit magazine capacity Regulate open carry #michiganstate


Pro tip: Schedule your annual gyno exam as close to Valentine’s Day as possible so you can knock ‘em both out with one good shave. #worksmarternotharder


Our newest @sheknows Hatch video where we ask teens about their parents using social media only confirms that I am, in fact, as uncool as my teens think I am. sheknows.com/parenting/vide…


If you can’t fathom how one pair of dirty socks tossed onto a heater vent can possibly stink up an entire room, you’ve never had a teenage boy. 🤢 #teenagers


My latest! ❤️

Just over here ugly-crying at the news of Noodle the Pug’s passing. As a “pug parent” myself, he never failed to make me smile with his typical pug antics (IYKYK!). @jongraz , thanks for sharing him with the world. ❤️

Pumpkin arrangement on my porch, full-on Christmas wonderland as soon as you step in the door. My seasonal decor is like a mullet type of situation.


If decorating for Christmas while there’s still a bowl of Halloween candy on your counter is wrong, then I don’t wanna be right. 🎄


This will forever be one of my favorite videos on the whole entire Internet. 😂

Despite not being able to speak properly, this baby still managed to have a full-blown conversation with his dad 😄😂 🎥: Shanieke Pryor



Anybody else’s kid decide THIS MORNING that they wanna dress in costume for school today but NOT in their actual Halloween costume? 😒


I’m trying hard to drink more water because I hate drinking water and I’m chronically dehydrated … but there’s SO MUCH PEEING. 😩
