About Me

Hey there! I’m Tesa, the mom behind 2 Wired 2 Tired. The blog originally got its name because my husband, Dave, and I had two kids born a year apart. Back then, we always joked that “the kids were too wired and we were too tired.”

Fast forward to today—those two kids are navigating college life (how did that happen so fast?!), and our house is a little quieter. But the story didn’t stop there. Now that I’m a 50+ mom and an empty nester-in-training, the definition of 2 Wired 2 Tired has evolved.

Today I’m wired for new adventures, Disney magic, smart technology, and unforgettable travel experiences and I’m completely tired of bad gadgets, boring trips!

Whether you’re a midlife mom looking for the ultimate 50+ Disney World guide, planning a relaxing Michigan Lake Life getaway, organizing a college dorm packing list, or just looking for a killer recipe to enjoy with a great book, you’re in the right place. The chaotic toddler years might be behind us, but the fun (and the coffee) is always brewing around here.

Let’s tackle this next exciting chapter together!

2 Wired 2 Tired in History
Years ago 2 Wired 2 Tired was given shoutouts by both Willard Scott and Kevin Nealon. I always loved Willard Scott’s 100th birthday tributes on the Today Show and Kevin Nealon has long been one of my favorite comedians and actors, so while these shoutouts took place quite awhile ago, they still hold a lot of meaning to me and make me smile every time I see them.

Kevin Nealon was at the American Century Golf Championship and gave us a Twitter photo shoutout:
