Because I still have some chalkboard paint left, I decided to paint the garage door of our “multipurpose room” with it. It’s white and boring and ugly. I outline the edges with a thin brush.

Jane finally pops! Our baby has arrived!
By Jane on May 19, 2011
Introducing our new SON!!! I can’t tell you how over the moon we are that he has finally arrived. And because our family can’t do anything the “normal” way, it’s quite a story (to come). But first, I thought you would like to see him. At 6lbs 4 oz, 19 inches long and coming about [...]

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 [...]

Thelma cleans the bathroom. No, this is not another Cinderella Story.
By Jane on January 18, 2010
My lovely Thelma thought she would help her Mommy out and clean the bathroom. No, I did not force her…She totally did this out of her own will and the goodness of her sweet little heart. Actually, I wasn’t supposed to see any of this. Thelma wanted to surprise me. Thelma is wearing a vintage dress from [...]

Lucy and I join Fanny Mae for Lunch. Thai time!
By Jane on January 28, 2010
Lucy and I meet up with my Mom for lunch during her lunch break from work. My mom is almost 65 but she loves working and I’m not sure she will retire any time soon. Being the super smart mom that she is, Fanny Mae is a Senior Project Engineer at an Environmental Engineering company. [...]

FREAKY EYES: Does it ever seem like someone is watching you?
By Jane on October 8, 2010
The girls spotted this tree with an eye on it staring right back at us. Weird and Freaky. That’s not drawn on there, it’s naturally like that. Then, on another day, I see the same tree…but from a different angle this time. And what do I see? TWO EYES staring back at me. Too freaky! [...]

OMG, do my eyes deceive me??? Kate Gosselin…is that you??!?!??! Where are your EIGHT kids??? While at my usual hangout, I was surprised when I thought I saw Kate Gosselin. The Kate Gosselin-Mom-Look-a-Like was a mom sporting the Kate Gosselin doo. The reality show, super-mom of two sets of multiples has reached new celebrity heights [...]

Attraction to others based on Survival.
By Jane on April 9, 2010
One night while we were over at my parents house, we were watching TV. We don’t have any channels at our house because: (1) We don’t have time to watch TV. (2) I would use it as a babysitter too much. (3) My kids would harass me constantly to buy every toy advertised. (4) I [...]

I was taking my girls to karate when OUT OF NOWHERE, a bird flies right in front of my car! Now, I’m one of those that swerve and NEARLY KILL MYSELF to avoid hitting an animal but this poor thing didn’t even give me a chance. When I saw it dart out in front of [...]

Cher comes over for a Persian breakfast at my house, in her jammies.
By Jane on December 13, 2011
My friend, Cher, is always inviting me to come over to her house and I’ve turned her down so many times because she lives “so far away” (about 30 minutes) and because I am a lazy friend who doesn’t want to leave her bubble. However, to make up for it, I instead have her come to [...]

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 [...]

Shockingly, I come to the sunny state of California to cold and rain. Cold doesn’t really mean cold. It means, cold for LA…which is only mild spring-like weather for everyone else. Today was cloudy with occassional rain, and totally blah blah blah. It feels like April showers weather and is around the same temperature. High is around 60F [...]

My great aunt visits from France.
By Jane on August 13, 2010
My great aunt, MAGDA, from my dad’s side lives in South France and was visiting other family in the US so she decided to swing by Metropolis to come see us. The number of visitors we are having this year is insane! But, it’s the best kind of insanity…family! I’m so glad to see her [...]

One day I went to Lowe’s to get a mulching kit for my lawn mower. I’ve gone there so many times for things for my lawn equipment that the gentleman who works there, Mr. John Deere, knows me and my girls. I always call ahead and make sure that Mr. John is there when I need [...]

It is through my own mental anguish and inner turmoil throughout my life that I have always sought to understand my pain and sought to relieve it. I am a firm believer that one can only grow from having experienced hardship or pain. “Many people dream of the hope for success. To me, sucess can [...]

The girls and I have a daily competition to see who can acquire the most bugs. Except, we don’t play PUNCH bugs. I don’t like being punched. Getting punched unexpectedly could easily throw this Momma into a bad mood. I already get a slight heart attack when they scream, BUG!!! And, nowadays, these bugs are [...]
