I love my white linen capri pants. They are light and comfy, shabby and chic. They are probably the next best thing to keep cool in the hot summer months other than wearing shorts. Have I mentioned I hate shorts? My chubby Mom legs are pale, and I find it awkward to constantly walk around […]
Please Pass the “Off”

There are some days that I worry I won’t have anything “funny” to post about, then I open my eyes, look around, and remember where I live. I’m so glad that you all enjoyed the muddy messy mongrel story from last week, and I’m even happier to report we have not had any more dogs […]

The last two days it rained and rained; I’m talking Noah’s Ark type rain. Aside from having an afro due to the high humidity levels, and having to wake the kids up early Tuesday morning because of a Tornado warning, I’m really not complaining about the weather. My water bill has been absurd this summer […]

Many of you reached out to me after my last post, with a variety of comments and emails, after reading how Joey basically asked a stranger in the grocery store whether or not he was heavy due to over consumption of pizza. You all tried to wrap me with words of comfort, some assuring me […]

Yesterday was one of those days where you knew you should have just stayed in bed…of course my job as a Domestic Engineer comes with exactly 0 vacation days and 0 sick days, so I suppose getting up was really my only option. My morning started around 5:38am when the summer sun began bursting through […]

I remember the days when all my underwear were cute, small, and composed mostly of strings. Even my workout underwear had “style” and were generally cute little bikini briefs. Those were the old days; and even though those underwear still reside in the top drawer of my dresser, they’ve had to make room in recent […]

This is my second summer with a vegetable garden, and since I’m not 727lbs of grumpy, tired pregnant this year, I decided to double the size of the garden. In an effort to be super-domestic, I expanded it to 8ft wide by 20ft long. I have several kinds of tomatoes, green and red peppers, summer […]

I admit it. I need to start exercising. It’s been nearly a year since I had my third child, and although I’ve lost 40lbs, I still have 7lbs keeping me from wearing half of what’s in my closet. Having only 7lbs left to lose might not seem like much to some people, but it’s a […]
A DSDD Ongoing Feature, “Why the F#@k Would They Do That?!”
posted by 1 Comment
The Divine Secrets of a Domestic Diva brings you an ongoing feature posting which will appear as often as my kids do something so ridiculous that it makes me say, “Why the F$@k would they do that?!” Considering my previous career experience in Training and Facilitation as well as Technical Writing, I am thinking of […]
