Hello….(in my best Adele voice)

Hello. It’s me. Ok, I’m done with that. It’s time for jonesboysmama to get a makeover. I know, it’s about damn time! You don’t have to tell me. I’ve been missing for 9 months. For all three of you followers (I’m sure you’ve been missing me something fierce), just a little update, after much counseling, reading and soul searching, I am very happy to report that Mr. Wonderful and I have worked a lot of shit out. We are probably happier than we have ever been and communication and respect are now our BFFs!! Whoop! Whooop! Hooray! Ok, celebration over.

So, you ask, what the hell will I talk about now? Well, I have an idea. I’m a stay at home mom to 2 very busy boys AND I hate to cook. So, I’m sure there are others of you out there like this. My idea is to blog about recipes I try, how easy, how tasty, how shitty, you name it. I’m hoping it will help other moms like me that also are short on time and short on patience for preparing dinner nightly.

Stay tuned….I haven’t decided what’s for dinner tonight! xoxo

What the pants?

Here’s my question of the day. Why, oh why, are the pockets sewn shut on women’s shorts and pants when you buy them? Seriously. It is ridiculously annoying. I like pockets. I like them even better when I can get my hands in them. Men don’t have this problem. Their pockets are blissfully open, ready to accept hands, wallets, cash, condoms, an old sock, whatever they see fit to carry in their pockets. And yet, we women have to suffer with breaking out the scissors and carefully cutting through the thread bounding our poor pockets together. Isn’t sewing the pockets together actually an extra step in making the pants/shorts? Couldn’t you clothes makers save time by just leaving the pockets open? Isn’t it a waste of thread? Are there women out there that just love their pockets being useless? If so, why? Why do you not love your pockets?

I find it irritating. Who can I call?
