On one of the final days of the Team Muehe New England Trip of Summer 2022, Coty decided that we should take the girls to nearby Gunstock Mountain Resort. The “adventure” day pass included unlimited access to the ski lift, rope climbing, and the mountain coaster. [For those that don’t know, lots of ski resorts […]

two words, y’all: rail. bike.
When Coty and I were finalizing plans for our trip to New England this summer, I went online to find ideas for new-to-us places to visit. We’ve taken the girls to New England (staying in New Hampshire) two other times; so, I was looking for things to do that we hadn’t before. Googling “things to […]
we’re not in kansas anymore, y’all
Part of participating in the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) sports means travel. Being on the top travel team in your club typically means travelling out of state. If you’re not interested in out-of-state travel, drop down a level and all of your tournaments will be regional – from Houston, to Dallas, to San Antonio, etc. […]
y’all, i don’t think i’m qualified
If you have known me for more than ten years or if you have read the majority of my blog posts, you know that I have a background in clinical research. About 11 years ago, when I left my last role in that profession, I posted my resumé online because I wasn’t sure if I […]
y’all wanna borrow my teenager?
Need a bit of direction in your life? Get yourself a teenage daughter. Need driving instruction? You need a teenage daughter. Need fashion advice? Get yourself a teenage daughter. Want to be put in your place? Get yo’self a teenage daughter. When Meredith was an infant, I worked in clinical research. I drove into the […]
y’all, i don’t exercise
Y’all, today I died and went to Hell – fat girl Hell. For those not close to Coty, just know that he has a serious case of OCD. He obsesses about cars (more on that in another post) and exercise. People with OCD require routine. Here is Coty’s: he either runs 4 – 5 miles […]
happy thanksgivin’, y’all
Lordt, y’all. We are home and I’m happy to be back on my couch with my laptop and a vodka tonic finishing up this entry. I survived yet another “fun” theme park based trip; this one to Universal Studios, FL. I will say this, if you or your kid(s) are fans of Harry Potter, this […]
i only travel for y’all, y’all
If you’ve been following me for any amount of time, you know that I draw the bulk of my inspiration from every day life experiences; however, from the feedback I’ve received, some of my best work has come from my family vacations; which, in my humble opinion, we may take too often. [I do believe […]
i don’t cook, y’all
Offended by foul language? Skip this post… A week or so ago, my darling husband suggested that we try “one of those online meal plans” because his sister, Kristen, raved about her experience. I took the time to search several sites to find one with gluten free options #havingceliacsucks and even asked my friend, Jill, […]
y’all, i am not cut out for teaching
Week one of #projecthomeschool is officially in the books and the second begun. For my students, I am concerned. At our current pace, my girls will go from Class of 2021 and 2024 to 2022 and 2025, respectively. Most days, they sleep until noon and drag themselves down the stairs around 2 PM, demanding “breakfast”. […]
