Sometimes, instead of just writing about everything, I gots to enjoy life too!

Fun with a ’76 Lincoln Continental Mark IV.
By Jane on November 21, 2009
The auction is very skimpy on cars today, which is odd because the lot is usually full. Consequently we don’t have many cars to look at. We take a beautiful Z4 for a spin because I really miss my roadster but it’s dangerous for me to have such a car. I like to bring out the [...]

By Jane on April 17, 2010
Whenever I’m too busy (or tired or lazy or don’t feel like wanting) to cook, one of the easiest, fastest, healthiest, and yummiest meals for the family is PIZZA and SALAD. Our family’s FAVORITE is Target’s Archer Farms Brand BASIL PESTO Pizza!! It’s ORGANIC and comes on a WHEAT CRUST! Cooks in the oven for [...]

Silly Bandz: The new friendship bracelet? Let’s go back to the old days.
By Jane on October 14, 2010
When I was in middle school, making friendship bracelets were all the rage and I was the queen of making string bracelets. No really. I was. I would spend hours upon hours knotting these colorful bracelets, all the while trying to come up with new patterns and styles to impress the kids at school. I [...]

Oscar waits patiently for his Mommy by the door.
By Jane on January 28, 2010
Oscar having some fun with one of the girls toys. Isn’t Oscar such a cutie!?!?!? His Mommy decides to drop him off at my house so she can have some “mommy time” and go run her errands. Oscar is so pa-te-tique and misses his Mommy. He just waits by the door. At one point he [...]

So, I’m always bragging to Dick how I don’t have any gray hair and I make fun of Dick for having quite a few. Anyway, it doesn’t even matter for men because it makes them look “distinguished”. Hmmppphhh. But, Dick’s response is, “You see what you three girls do to me?”. And, he doesn’t buy [...]

Your daily Benz: Sleeping with Mommy and Daddy.
By Jane on June 23, 2011
Because I’m the Mommy AND the photographer, I am doubly doomed not to get any pictures of me with the baby or me with my family at all for that matter…even though I am the one person who currently spends the most time with the baby. However, I’m torn because even though I want to [...]

Jane: Victim of Forever Sharp Knife
By Jane on June 19, 2010
Around 7 years ago or so, I was DUPED into buying one of those FOREVER SHARP knives while shopping at Sam’s Club. I was minding my own business, shopping around, when I hear over the intercom… “Attention all shoppers. We will be giving away a FREE pearing knife in aisle [whatever aisle-like I remember]. Don’t miss [...]

Jane uses a grinding wheel to sharpen her lawn mower blades.
By Jane on May 14, 2010
Here I was all ready to FINALLY cut my grass but now have been THWARTED (Definition THWART: to prevent someone from doing something) by Dick’s carelessness in leaving the string to his car tent lying around and now it’s wrapped itself around the blades of my mower. I can’t just unwind the string so I’m [...]

Thundershowers keep me stranded at the Starbucks.
By Jane on August 13, 2010
I know, tough life right? Stranded at the Starbucks. Don’t be hatin’ cause I be chillin’! With all that we do and all that we got goin’ on, this is one of my simple pleasures in life. Gots to keep Momma happy…cause EVERYBODY knows… IF MOMMA AIN’T HAPPY…AIN’T NOBODY HAPPY!! And if you don’t know [...]

The girls want to do their own pumpkins and Jane is inspired by Despicable Me.
By Jane on November 1, 2010
This year, I bought two smaller pumkpins for the girls to carve themselves, totally forgeting that smaller pumpkins are harder to carve. I cut off the tops and let the girls gut the pumpkins themselves. I had bought the pumpkins like a week or so ago and kept delaying carving them. Last year, we carved [...]

Your Daily Osho: Retrospective Wisdom. It’s worthless! No one will listen to an insane person.
By Jane on February 1, 2011
Ohhh, this is SO hard to do…being aware when you’re at your angriest! At least it was for me. I remember the days when I would get so angry at Dick about “things” and would just lash out at him. I’d bring up everything from the past even though it wasn’t relevant, and it would [...]

Bikini Preggar Jane gets her tan on with natural sun therapy. Doc says I’m low on Vitamin D.
By Jane on March 27, 2011
My doctor says I’m low on Vitamin D…like almost everyone in America these days. We’re in our houses, offices, cars and we don’t get out much. Especially during winter. The doctor had prescribed me some Vitamin D supplements but as you may have guessed, I would rather get it naturally than to take some kind [...]

We get invited to a last minute doggie wedding. Yuki & Oscar’s!!
By Jane on January 25, 2010
I had this idea to let my Mom’s new Pekingese (Yuki) mate with Oscar because I thought they would make cute babies. Lucy is up for it but reminds me that it might be difficult since Oscar only has one ball. Yes, one ball. No matter, we’re going to give it a try. Apparently though, [...]

Biking and Hill-Climbing Preggar.
By Jane on January 21, 2011
The other day, we were blessed with unseasonable warm weather for this time of the year so we decided to take our bikes out and enjoy it! Plus, we had to go get some groceries. The hill next to our house was still iced over in parts so we had to be super careful. Dick’s [...]

A great natural substitute for your eye make-up remover.
By Jane on September 12, 2011
Whenever I get out of the shower or pool, and because I don’t use waterproof mascara, I look like a scary mess. My kids tell me all the time, “Mommy, you look scary today.” Thank you dahling! That’s me, Scary-Mary Jane. Mascara doesn’t come off very well, even when you use soap. You have to [...]

DICK: Daddy Day at Ballet, Tutus and all.
By Jane on January 19, 2010
The girls have been taking ballet since they were 5, taking off a year here or there. Louise was excited to start ballet again but since Thelma was crazy about ice skating, she wasn’t feelin’ ballet as much and decided not to take lessons this year. And ever Louise started up again this last fall, [...]

Our homeschool co-op encourages and allows kids to explore their inner creativity. On this day, the middle schoolers used their hands, literally & physically, to create art. Swan head. Awesome! Snake with open mouth and fangs protruding. Siamese twins is what I believe this student told me this was. Writing with a piece of chalk. [...]

An attempt to meet my favorite blogger, Perez Hilton. No, I’m not a celebrity stalker!
By Jane on December 12, 2009
As I have mentioned, I have yet to meet a celebrity in person or even see any roaming around LA. So, I’m on the lookout for some celebrities while I’m in LA. I found out that my favorite pimp daddy blogger, Perez Hilton, was doing a book signing to promote his new book, True Bloggywood [...]

Visiting with the elderly neighbors on a walk to the Grandparents’ house.
By Jane on July 12, 2011
The other day we were going to go for an after-dinner walk to my parent’s house. Since their house is less than a mile away it’s a great short, casual walk. First we play a little soccer in the yard. Benz is strapped in and ready to go into a Baby Bjorn given to me [...]
