Today Dick and I went to the car auction to test drive cars. Tomorrow is the actual day of the auction and we need to scope out the cars we like ahead of time and make sure they are sound, clean and sell-able. I love it because I get to check out all the cars [...]

Happy Accident #3: We got a turd on the way.
By Jane on November 29, 2010
Yes, that’s my bloated belly. Yes, I over-indulged and thoroughly enjoyed all the yummies we had for Thanksgiving. Yes, I ate too much. However, this is only partially why I’ve got the added weight. We are excited (and initially very surprised) to find out that we have our “turd” happy accident on da way. What can [...]

Late run to Walmart for Arts and Crafts
By Jane on November 23, 2009
I like to buy things at the dollar store to use for arts and crafts projects at home. It’s a great inexpensive way to let your kids tune into their artistic side without spending tons of money because arts and crafts supplies can get pretty pricey. At the dollar store you usually find wooden frames, boxes, birdhouses, [...]

By Jane on October 24, 2011
Louise gets called in to do another modeling job. The last job we did together as a family when we did the Bayliner Shoot but it’s been a year since Louise had a job by herself. Remember the Denktek flossers? I’m trying to figure out all the logistics because Dick is out of town, I [...]

Besides being able to bike to one of the largest shopping strips around, we also have access to several neighborhoods that all connected and are great for biking. We take ALL the kids biking and luckily, I have enough bikes for us all. Everyone is riding their own bike except for Louise. She doesn’t feel [...]

Dinners at Freddy Mac and Fanny Mae’s. Yum!!
By Jane on November 30, 2009
Because my parents live less than a mile away from me, we’re always over there for dinner. Any time I’m lazy to cook, we call up my parents to see what they have. When I was in college, I would go home on weekends and raid my parents fridge to see what I could bring [...]

Does this give you any kind of inclination as to the state of my brains? I almost walked out the door like this. Only after a bit did I realize that something didn’t feel just quite right. Luckily I did make the necessary adjustments prior to venturing out in public. -Jane, Preggar Brained.
