If you have not met Monk, you’re about to now. Dick gave Monk to Thelma a couple of years ago for Christmas. Bought from Justice Girls, she came hugging one of those comfy matching monkey flannel blankets. Monk is sassy and is one of the most traveled Monkey stuffed animals I know because Thelma just [...]

Another day, another park. Scavenger hunts, tag, and fun, fun, fun.
By Jane on October 14, 2009
Since we happened to be in downtown Metropolis, Dick and I decide to take Thelma and Louise to one of their favorite parks. It’s an amazing, great park built by community volunteers and the kids love it because it’s like a big maze for them.

Pressure washing my patio and anything else I want to make new again.
By Jane on April 23, 2010
My back patio is made of concrete and it’s in dire need of some maintenance. The patio sits on the north side so it also gets the LEAST amount of sun and even a little moldy over the winter. It’s also that time of year when all the spring “droppings” fall off the trees and [...]

My sweet thang, Thelma, fell asleep on the couch the other day. She’s all sorts of lovely. So peaceful. LOVE LOVE LOVE this monkey. -Jane, Mother of Thelma.

Sorry it’s been so long since I posted anything. I’ve resided myself to not stress about blogging and to live life rather than just write about it. I try to do both but writing (and editing pictures) about it take much more time. Anyway, love my fans and faithful blog readers… -Jane, XOXO.

Boggle: One of mine and Lucy’s favorite pastimes.
By Jane on December 28, 2009
Lucy Lu and I love to play board games. Boggle is one of the favorites. I must tell you I kick ass in this game. Yes, I’m competitive and I will kick your ass in this game too.

A Persian man who will cook? Yes, I’m lucky…but only sometimes…
By Jane on October 20, 2009
In our house, red wine goes really well with cooking. Sometimes Dick will cook for us (excitement!) …when he’s craving Persian kabob that is. Therefore, every once in a while, I get the pleasure of having my hunka-hunka burnin’ love (Thanks Sharon O.) cook for me. Unfortunately, when Dick cooks…I still end up being an [...]

Convertibles: Love them or not?
By Jane on September 21, 2010
Since it was summer, we had been looking for a convertible for the girls to enjoy. We found one and the kids (including the big one that is my husband) LOVE it! They love it so much they don’t want to sell it. It’s like a roller coaster ride for them. I’m not sure what [...]

I got a good forward the other day…and by “good forward” I mean it wasn’t too long or wordy, had lots of pictures and made me smile. Anything longer than and page with lots of words and no pictures will SURELY not be read if you forward it to me. This particular forward was full [...]

Andy’s Pool Hall in Little Italy…more like a club…and co-ed bathrooms too???
By Jane on July 19, 2010
Since Little Italy is right around the corner from my aunt’s place, Eminem, MIA and I go out in search of a place to shoot pool one night. There used to be a place that I would play at all the time but that was almost 10 years ago and it’s no longer there. So, [...]

Tenant moves out so it’s off to Gotham City to “camp out” again.
By Jane on June 15, 2010
Although Dick goes to Gotham City all the time, I mostly go when a tenant moves out and the cleaning crew (ME) comes in. So, after showing the car and picking up Louise from swim practice, I pack and load up the car. Yes, it’s time to camp out again. Here’s all our gear. Blankets, [...]

Good Forward: Unique and Interesting Shopping Bags
By Jane on December 12, 2010
Someone had sent me what I would consider a “good forward” (brief, amusing, and has pictures) a long time ago and I just came across it while performing my routine, quarterly (it seems) clean-out of my e-mail Inbox. It’s of unique shopping bags. Whoever created these were quite creative and definitely had a sense of [...]

Pics from the new park that we were on the way to when my parents were following me. The sky was quite dramatic that day, especially since we got there around sundown. As the parents, we thought it necessary to test out the equipment to make sure it would be safe for the kids. LOL [...]

This year, Lucy and I hosted Thanksgiving Dinner at my house this year. I have made Thanksgiving dinner one time by myself and that was long ago, before Dick and I even had kids. Usually, Freddy Mac is the one who makes our yummy Thanksgiving dinner but this year Lucy and I thought we would [...]

Your Daily Benz: Mommy and Daddy Vomit Victims.
By Jane on August 24, 2011
Benz is such a sweet, innocent thing that you just can’t be upset with him at all, ever. Seriously, look at this yummy, chubby thing. I totally LOVE baby’s hands and feet. So yummilicious like mini sausages. Benz is like a little monkey the way his feet clasp together. It’s like his feet are saying [...]

Jane’s Maternity Wear: Planned Parenthood.
By Jane on January 7, 2011
My sister Lucy came across this shirt and thought it to be PERFECT for me since it describes us oh so well. Planned Parenthood. That’s us! This is not a maternity shirt. She just bought it in a large. Looks and fits like Maternity though! James Perse makes the most comfortable, supersoft Tees. Although he [...]

Green Tea, Apple Cinnamon Cake & Art Time
By Jane on November 7, 2009
The girls recently came across a drawing book that I had when I was a kid, saved by my dear Mom (she keeps EVERYTHING). Inspired, they wanted to learn how to draw like Mommy. I told them it just takes practice and explained some basics. Try not to draw from memory (which usually turns out [...]

Jane: Wacking and Blowing Preggar.
By Jane on March 12, 2011
OMG, that title was too easy to pass up. I kill myself. (that comes with a knee-slap too). Sorry, I sometimes have a weird sense of humor. Must be the hormones. Yes, I’m going to blame everything on pregnancy hormones. Because I can. As I may have mentioned, it’s difficult to slow down. And I [...]
