Hey!

Just grab a cup of coffee (or a glass of wine,) scoot the pile of unfolded laundry over, and have a seat. I’m known here online as Mom2My6Pack.

People keep telling me there should be information about me on my website, and well, all the cool kids are doing it, so here ya go. You can read more about me in my BIO.

You can read about our latest adventures – like my attempt to date (it isn’t pretty), and how my kids have to repeatedly save me from the Cocker Spaniel-sized bugs down here. You can search my archives for older stories of the kids painting the walls with peanut butter, giving their siblings haircuts, and building rocket ships out of household appliances – on my BLOG .

To get your very own copy of my books, You’ll Lose the Baby Weight (and other lies about pregnancy and childbirth) or Because I Said So (and other tales from a less-than-perfect parent), check out my BOOKS page.

Take your time, look around and make sure to come back as I update my BLOG a couple times a week. Gotta go! I’m trying to invent a teleportation device, make a coffee IV, and teach my children how to replace the empty toilet paper roll. It’s a time consuming job!

Make yourself at home and enjoy!

From the blog…

  • RSS BECAUSE I SAID SO

    • I've Got an Itchy Trigger Finger. No, Really!
      When you're young, you hurt yourself when you do something like skateboard down a hill, or jump over a parking meter, or fall from a bunkbed. When you're my age, you hurt yourself doing things like walking to your car in a parking lot, looking over your shoulder when backing out, or apparently doing nothing more […]
    • Where Are They Now?
      People often ask me what my kids are up to these days. I started this blog over 16 years ago. It's hard to believe so much time has passed because it feels like it was just yesterday. Folks always told me, "The days are long, but the years are short." Now I fully understand the […]
    • My Weight-Loss Journey (Otherwise Entitled: How I Haven't Lost a Single Pound)
      Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! I lay awake, berating myself for eating half a Pepperidge Farm coconut cake. You know, those frozen cakes that serve 8? I hadn't even taken the time to defrost it, and it's a good bet I would've eaten the entire partially-frozen cake in one sitting had my daughter not come home when […]
    • The Taming of the Frizz
      I have thick, coarse hair. I always have. When I was a kid, my mom kept my hair short. I looked like a boy - a boy in cute little smocked-top dresses. Maybe she really wanted a boy. I don't know. My mom would also have the hairdresser "thin" my hair by using thinning shears. The […]
