A friend of mine sent me this forward and I found it amusing.
Yes, it doesn’t take much to amuse me.
This is a Chinese Eye Test. Can’t read it?
Try pulling your eyes out to the sides, as if you were Chinese.
It’s a good thing I have good vision.

The Victorian Table gets the HOT treatment and June Cleaver suggests I trim it up!
By Jane on March 8, 2010
The room still needs more umph. BOLD is BEAUTIFUL. THE VICTORIAN TABLE I remember that I have an old ornate, although intricately molded plastic, table that looks like it was from the LOUIS XIV days. It’s in my shed collecting dust because two of it’s legs have fallen off. I kept it all this time [...]

So now that you know our plans to have a natural child birth, you’ll understand our thought process when it came time. As I mentioned, when I hit 36 weeks my OB started to talk to me about the possibility of induction, even though she knew I really wanted to have a natural child birth. [...]

In LA, you spend a third of your life in your car…
By Jane on December 14, 2009
It’s taking me some time to get into my groove here…so hard to find the time to blog. All my time is spent in the car, stuck in traffic, getting from place to place. It takes at least 45 minutes to get anywhere, even just driving 5 miles takes this long. Five miles in Metropolis [...]

Today I may be a photographer, blogger, property investor and manager, entrepreneur…tomorrow I may want to be a hairdresser, a chef, a stylist, a gardener, or a carpenter. Who knows? Life is short. I don’t think I would want to do the same thing for the rest of my life. I have many more things [...]

A MUST SEE: Madonna covers John Lennon’s, Imagine.
By Jane on January 9, 2011
WATCH, WATCH, WATCH! I actually like Madonna’s version of John Lennon’s, Imagine. Of course, the original remains untouchable. What are YOU waiting for? I need constant reminders like these. We get so caught up in our lives and our dramas that we FORGET. -Jane, Lover and Hoper for World Peace.

Ewwww Pink! Going through a tomboy phase.
By Jane on September 19, 2010
We’re going through a tomboy phase where PINK is no longer favored. These days, I often hear: “That’s too girly Mommy!” So I guess we’re into the “tough chick” mode…especially Thelma. I’m not sure I can even get them in a dress or skirt. Kids and their phases. I guess I have mine too. Whatevs, [...]

The family goes watch a ladies college-level volleyball game. TN vs Ole Miss!!
By Jane on October 26, 2011
After being annoyed that Dick tried to set blame of the flat tire on me, I was able to get over it so that we could still enjoy watching the Lady Vols play against Ole Miss. From what we hear, there is quite a rivalry between these two teams and so it should be an [...]

By Jane on February 25, 2010
I was going thru my old room at my mom’s house. She’s your typical Vietnamese woman that keeps everything. Although I’m not usually a fan of hoarding, there are some things that bring back so many memories and give me a good laugh. So, I think this might be a series of posts as there [...]
