It's been way too long since I've blogged, and miss it incredibly. That saying, "Life has gotten in the way," exactly describes why there haven't been any posts. Sopes has b...
So it's been a month and a half since Sopes has left for the KHL. I went from not knowing what the hell I was going to do; into an amazing routine. That's not to say there aren't bu...
Here we go again. After the first 10 moves, shit, I've just lost count. The kids and I are off on a new and exciting adventure. (Or so I tell them.) With Sopes being gone for the better part ...
Sometimes, well most of the time, things don't go as planned. This is one of them. We have been back in the Syracuse area visiting family for over a week now, and Sopes and Paul returned to Ch...
What a wonderful week! We just returned from an impromptu trip to Wisconsin. We had an amazing 4th with great friends. The next morning, Jake had sleepover lacrosse camp for a couple of days, so I...
It's been a while, but doesn't seem like it to me. This summer has been busy and flying by. Hopefully, in the coming weeks it will slow down and we'll be able to enjoy it a bit more ...
And so it begins. The pit in the stomach of what this year will bring. We've talked, speculated and talked some more. It seems as if every time we decide on a plan, life gets in the way. If ...
HOLY CRAZINESS!!! The honeymoon is over - reality has now set in - he's home. I love him, just from afar! No, seriously, it's just a big adjustment. I've had control over every asp...
Many of you have asked for the Nutella ice cream recipe. Here's my version - it's so yummy, but super calorie laden! NOT one of Sopey's diet foods. 2 cups of 2% milk 1 cup heavy crea...
Sopey's finally home!!!!! He arrived last night to screaming kids with signs. We're all so happy to have him back for a little while. Who knows what the situation will be for next year -...
Horrible migraine last night and Sopes babysat the kids for me last night - via phone. I was lying in bed, Jake was passed out also (growth spurt), and the girls were entertained by Dad! He made th...
A quick update. My days have been filled with pillows, and more pillows! With the opening coming up this Monday, shit has to get done! My home office is a disaster - thank god Sopes isn't hom...
Alright, so it's been crazy around here with Jayla. She's just turned 7, and you'd think she's 2! The problem is she's so damn cute and the baby of the family, that we all ...
GREAT JOB LAST NIGHT TO THE HABS!!! I was particularly proud of Sopes - right back into his playoff mode! Communication with him SUCKS right now - the hotel has terrible cell service. This means th...
So here we go again! Another playoff race - thank god! Sopes came home yesterday for the last time until the season ends. Hopefully, he won't see the city of Chicago until June. It's so...
The bags are packed and we'll be heading up to see Sopes!! Not much of a "Spring Break" with the weather, but it works. The kids are so excited! Our youngest, Jayla, turns 7 tomorro...
Many are asking questions on what kind of store I'm opening. Well, here's the deal. In April, I will be unveiling a boutique called "Simple Privileges by Kelly Sopel". After 12...
I've been a little "on-edge" lately. No, not because of the trade or anything like that. Our son has his FIRST GIRLFRIEND. I completely understand that they're going to grow up...
Today is 10 years! It's been more than a crazy ride! I must admit, I forget every year. Sopes tries to remind me, and it still slips my mind. (I suck at remembering dates.) The kids made a ...
As you now know, he's been traded. FINALLY, we will be able to get some sleep. Last night was horrible! Not knowing what was going on, but knowing that something would be. Sopes is already at...
Like every other working mom in America, sometimes it's overwhelming. Last week was no different. My nanny, who is more like my second set of hands, was in Hawaii on vacation. I had to manage...
Ok- today is one of those days! Stressed and ready for Sopes to just come home. I miss him terribly! While I haven't had a day like this in a while, it still blows! The sun is shining, but not o...
So now we're just shy of two weeks until the NHL trade deadline. This year it's a bit easier to breathe, seeing that Sopes is the only one of us in Atlanta. If he's traded, the kids ...
Again, it's been quite a while. We've been pretty busy in our house! The kids have been VERY patient with me lately. Trying to work and be Mom is pretty draining, but rewarding. I'v...
Great weekend - (minus the sports world)! The kids and I snuggled up in the house and spent some great quality time together. Jake had lacrosse on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It's now 5 days...
So blogging hasn't been at the top of the list lately. My head has been swirling, and shit hittin' the fan. If you keep up with the blog, you'll remember how I was "TAKING THE H...
Doing MUCH better today. Spending the day in bed helped bunches. Curled up with my blanket watching the Notebook was a great way to spend the afternoon. Hell, I even made the biggest plate of past...
It’s been a while, I know. Christmas was wonderful! New Years was pretty boring, nice. Finally, hitting my breaking point! I haven’t gotten pissed at Sopes since he moved. We both know this is wha...
First of all, thanks for all of the advice yesterday. Unfortunately, Matt Lauer blew my cover! I watch the Today Show every morning - well at least have it on in the background. Apparently, they t...
