We’re having BBQ for lunch at our homeschool co-op today, provided by my fellow lunch lady, Laverne. Her husband smoked this pork for over 14 hours and it was extremely moist and tasty!

The Motor City, the border, kilometers versus miles…and finally, Toronto.
By Jane on July 7, 2010
We’re in the Motor City! Home of the Pistons! And my old place of employment, where I lived some 9 or 10 years ago, working for Ford Motor Company. This is a picture of one of Ford’s plants but I didn’t work here. I worked in the offices close to headquarters. After traveling around for a [...]

Yet Another Roadtrip: Picking up Daddy & Visiting with Friends
By Jane on November 18, 2009
It’s time to retreive Daddy since he’s been gone for over 2 weeks in LaLa Land (A.k.a. LA, Los Angeles). We found a great reasonable flight that is direct but it’s a 3 hour drive to this airport. Dick’s flight is supposed to arrive at 3:30pm and so I’m rushing to hit the road after Mother-Daughter [...]

Not one to usually hold back, I used to be one that complained all the time…or at least to the ones closest to me. I think I was at my most unhappy when I was in Detroit. The consultants we were working with at Ford were pissing me off, the telephone company was pissing me [...]

The girls enjoy the fall leaves.
By Jane on October 29, 2010
The girls are superexcited that there are enough leaves on the ground at CHEZ FANNY & FREDDIE (the grandparents) so they can make a HUGE pile and jump in it. Thelma is using some kind of rod to push the leaves together. I guess it’s working okay.

Despite hardly sleeping and drinking the night before, Dick makes it to the LA Marathon!
By Jane on April 2, 2012
Despite drinking with his buddy the night before, Dick is up and ready to head to the marathon at like 5:30am. Dick has to be at the starting line by 7:00am because the marathon starts at 7:30am. That means he has to leave the house by 6 or so to make it downtown on time. [...]

Lucy and the girls plant some herbs.
By Jane on February 9, 2011
Lucy had bought me a little French Culinary Herb Kit. It’s so cute! The herbs included are Thyme, Rosemary and Sage. So, since she was in town, she and the girls put it together. It was very easy to do. Just water the soil pellets that are included. They expand to look like this. Then [...]

Robert Downey Jr in Sherlock. Super Sexy.
By Jane on December 19, 2009
A bus in LA pulled up next to me and oh what a happy surprise that was…a lovely ad for Robert Downey Jr.’s new movie, Sherlock Holmes. Um…cam we say YUMMY! He has a tinge of Hugh Jackman in this picture.

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 [...]

Damn those word confirmations that verify if you’re human!
By Jane on August 13, 2010
I just love how these days you have to type in word confirmations where you have to use Million-Dollar Man type vision to try to decipher MORPHED ILLEGIBLE WORDS so the system can identify that you are indeed HUMAN and not some computer who is generating a bunch of automatic posts or whatever it is [...]

My lovelies clean up their mess of a room.
By Jane on February 19, 2012
Like the rest of the house, the girls room needed de-cluttering and cleaning. Are you sick of hearing those words yet? My girls are. Whenever I mention all the “cleaning” we have to do, you see their faces drop, shoulders slump down, and a sad “awwwwww” spews out of their mouths…in unison. Their room is [...]

It’s taking me a bit to write the story of his birth but it’s coming, I promise. I have to get the details just right cause this is a story that will be passed in our family from generation to generation. In the meantime, here are some pictures of when we were at the hospital. [...]

Enjoying Nature: A picnic by the river in the mountains.
By Jane on September 26, 2009
Every summer we go to the mountains to chill by the river and enjoy the beautiful nature that we have access to. We unplug ourselves for the day since there’s no TV, computers, or cell phone reception. This year, we’ve been so busy that the girls and I have made a few trips with [...]

Red wine, dark chocolate, and a fireplace…ahhhhhhh.
By Jane on October 18, 2009
It was a SUPER cold day in Metropolis. Cold weather makes me want to hibernate and I’m less apt to leave my house to go anywhere. Therefore, when one is hibernating, make sure to have some good red wine, some semi-sweet dark chocolate, and a warm, cozy fireplace. Cuddle with a book or your loved [...]

Are there Depends for pregnant women??? The Preggar-Pantiliner???
By Jane on December 15, 2010
Freakin-A. Someone needs to design some Depends or something for pregnant women. It needs to be called the Preggar Pantiliner. (I need to trademark that. Remember where you heard it first!) If you ever hear me sneeze one of my big karate-chop sneezes and then follow it with “Damn it!”, it’s because I’ve just peed [...]
