Getting our energy out at the Gymnastics place.
By Jane on September 23, 2010
We have access to a great Gymnastics place that opens up their gym to the public and allows kids to run around and play at their HUGE facility for only $5 an hour per child! Believe me, an hour is plenty. We’re not interested in adding yet another activity to our schedules but I love [...]

Auntie Lucy finally gets to meet her nephew Benz.
By Jane on June 3, 2011
Auntie Lucy finally meets her nephew! I love how Benz is grabbing onto Auntie…Boobilicious! No Benz, that one doesn’t have what you’re looking for. A nice and comfy “pillow” to rest your head on, huh? Totally a boob-man! -Jane,Mommy to Boob-man Benz.

Girls, if you want new Converses and Heely’s, you’re gonna have to save yo money!
By Jane on October 19, 2011
Money doesn’t fall from trees (although it would be really nice if it did) and I get super annoyed when my girls run up to me and ask me to buy this and that and many times, without even looking at the price! My first response to their request is always, “Did you look at [...]

Our first snow this year! It WAS a Winter Wonderland in Metropolis!
By Jane on December 5, 2009
Thankfully, Thelma and Louise got to see some snow today. They were starting to think it didn’t exist. Metropolis doesn’t snow often but it used to. Growing up, I remember the snow coming up to my knees…albeit, my knees were closer to the ground then. Still, we got snow and it was always SUPER exciting [...]

Riding the ChooChoo…at the mall.
By Jane on March 10, 2011
Like I said, I haven’t been to the mall in like two years…and I realized why. Besides it being outside “the bubble” that I live in, it’s crazy crowded (at least it was that day) and stressful. While we were there looking at the Orchid Exhibit, the girls see a Choo Choo Train that goes [...]

I lose Dick’s keys and make PROPER use of Lucy’s “Apology” note pad she gave me.
By Jane on April 22, 2010
All day I’ve been pressure washing the deck, putting away stuff in the shed, cleaning, blowing leaves off the roof of the house, planting flowers…and in between all that, I lost Dick’s keys. (Because I went to get gas for my machines and didn’t put the keys back where they belong.) RUMMAGING THROUGH TRASH SUCKS [...]
The usual mountains, with exception of the snake.
By Jane on July 21, 2011
With Lucy in town and it being the 4th of July weekend, we also decided to go back to the mountains for yet another day of chillaxin’ in the mountains. Are you getting bored of my stories yet? Are you starting to see a pattern in our simple lives? Nearly every summer for the past [...]

Request for the Hubby to do the dishes…
By Jane on September 12, 2010
After I made dinner last night and after we ate it, it was quite the disaster area, like usual. We were watching a movie so I didn’t realize how much of a disaster until I came back into the kitchen later. Ugh. Not wanting to have to do them, I mentioned it to Dick, in [...]

Jane and Dick attend an early Halloween Party.
By Jane on October 25, 2010
Dick and I got invited to a Halloween party over the weekend and of course, wouldn’t miss an oportunity to dress up. Lucy had spotted a cute school girl costume in a store front window in LA and thought I would love it so she bought it for me and gave it to me when [...]

Jane’s Teenage Diet & Exercise Plan. LOL
By Jane on February 25, 2010
Another great find in my vintage GREEN INDEX CARD HOLDER. Like many teenagers these days, body image was important and I was always concerned with my weight (which lead to my eventual bout with Bulimia). Apparently, when I was a teenager, I thought this is all it would take to lose weight. The bulk of [...]

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. [...]

While the girls are playing on the playground, Dick and I go for a walk with Benz. Only, it seems like it’s just the two of them… Dick took a few of me but they were just hideous. Not solely the fault of the photographer. I wish Dick had some photo skillz so that I [...]

Serial Cheaters. Tiger Woods…Surprised / Not Surprised?
By Jane on December 4, 2009
I’m reading all this stuff about Tiger Woods and it’s surprising, yet not really surprising. SURPRISING I guess because Tiger Woods is a mega-superstar who has this clean/good boy image, a gorgeous wife and two kids. I think he’s fugly and lucky to have such a beautiful wife. People always wonder why men stray when [...]

Phu Quoc at Night: Are you an adventurous Seafood Lover?
By Jane on March 1, 2011
In Vietnam, there’s always plenty to do at night. Vietnamese locals are always working and many of the businesses (especially places to eat) are open until the wee hours. Nighttime is when all the fishermen come out. \ This must be what they’re fishing for…late night eats in town. In Phu Quoc, they have a [...]

The girls and I are driving through the Midwest to get to Toronto!!
By Jane on July 6, 2010
You remember my Aussie cousin, MIA, who was touring around Mexico and Central America? Well she’s swinging back around to visit us one more time before she’s off to return to her home on the other side of the world. Since the last time I saw her before this was 20 years ago, I don’t want to [...]

Besties Biking to get Books & Reading by the Stream.
By Jane on June 13, 2010
The next day and after the sleepover, I decide to take the girls to the library…oh yeah, and we’re biking to get there. I’m coming, I’m coming! The girls wave “hi” to passersby. So advanced in their young age. I could’t bike one-handed until a year ago.

It is so true that when something goes wrong, everything goes wrong. What’s that law called? Mitch’s Law? Michael’s Law? I hate it when I can’t remember something I know I should know! It drives me crazy until I do remember…Oh yeah… Murphy’s Law!! It seems that Murphy has decided to make examples of us [...]

Thelma, being almost 10 and anti-pink/anti-girly, no longer plays with her Build-a-Bear. Well, that is, until recently, she discovered that the same clothes may fit her unsuspecting little brother. Little Benz sitting innocently and happily. Now look at him. He’s horrified. “Why sissy, why?!?!?” Not a happy camper. He no likey-likey. Then the other day, [...]

Inspiration of the day: From Hardship comes growth.
By Jane on September 9, 2010
Cold and hunger are the forces that produce warmth and fullness. From poverty we can become rich. Sickness spurs our search for health. Health or wealth by birth is not ours – it is our parent’s gift to us. As such, it will disappear sooner or later. You must be the creator of your own [...]
