Right around Thanksgiving my dear hubby, Dick, decides to take away my precious playroom and change it back into it’s original intended use – a GARAGE. Since it was cold outside, he relocated his car maintenance work into our playroom garage. Yes, I have not played ping pong since Thanksgiving! Now we’re back from LA and [...]

Getting our imagination on at the Imaginon.
By Jane on January 27, 2012
The girls love coming to Gotham City. It’s a change of environment. We’re in the hustle and bustle of a bigger city and because we’re uptown, we get to enjoy urban, city life. I like that we get a taste of both the “country” (I put that in quotes because it’s not like we’re roughin’ [...]

Texts from Vietnam: Already torturous getting everyone together.
By Jane on January 3, 2011
Texts that I have received from Lucy while she and the rest of my family are in Vietnam: Dec. 25, 2010 Already torturous getting everyone together. This cracks me up. This is like her second day in Vietnam. My aunt, Queen Latifa and my other aunt from Australia (w/husband) are there with Lucy. And, my [...]

Cutie Petutie Selena Gomez’s Video Naturally
By Jane on January 6, 2010
I was watching TV with Thelma. She was watching the Disney Channel and Selena Gomez’s video Naturally came on. I hate to admit it but Selena is such a cutie. Surprisingly, her song Naturally has a great beat and girlfriend can carry a tune! Enjoy her video! She’s just adorable! -Jane, Unabashed Lover of Teeny [...]

Kenny Chesney premiering his 3-D movie in Metropolis?
By Jane on April 14, 2010
The girls wanted to go biking so we were heading out to Starbucks and Target. By sheer coincidence, as we were coming up to the parking lot, we see cops everywhere. Looks like another premiere. Remember the last time the TWILIGHT cast was here in our little town of Metropolis. So, we were curious as to [...]

Jane has no qualms about child labor. Everyone helps clean the house!
By Jane on August 23, 2011
We had spent our first night at Mr. Bean’s house so the kids could play. The next day, it was time to get to work on our rental property. The first thing we always do when we stay at one of our properties is give it a good cleaning. I don’t like to stay where other [...]

“Heat Wave” prompts chillin’ at Starbucks. And yes, size does matter.
By Jane on February 21, 2010
It’s warm for the first time in forever, it seems. So, what do we do? Well we head to Starbucks of course!

We’re Cleaning HOUSE! With tenants out, it’s time to clean up!
By Jane on February 9, 2010
Although my tenant did a pretty good job cleaning, there are some things that tenants always miss. AIR FILTERS We always remind our tenants to change the filters in the house, and they could give two shits less what the air filter does. It never gets replaced. I don’t know why Dick has me even [...]

Swimming with jellyfish and squid.
By Jane on February 28, 2011
While at the Phu Quoc resort, the family decides to go for a swim in the lovely clear waters. Look how cute Queenie looks. Love the old-school bathing suit! The emerald waters are so clear and beautiful! I’m quite jealous. Love this picture of MIA’s parents. Look what my dad spots swimming amongst them…jelly fish! [...]

People camping out at the mall for iPad 2.
By Jane on March 14, 2011
While at the mall the other, I notice some people sitting outside the Apple Store. They were camping out for the iPad 2. The only time I ever camped out for anything was for New Kids on the Block tickets…but really, it was just to hang out with my friends and was something to do. [...]

My girls kids (still not used to having a son) and I were at Justice the other day just browsing around. Here’s Benz flanked by Angry Birds. No, I do not play this game. I don’t because I would be one to become addicted to this game and everything else in life wouldn’t matter. I know [...]

Thelma after she just woke up…
By Jane on November 8, 2009
These are the moments to treasure. I was just taken aback by how lovely my Thelma looked on this morning after she woke up. So innocent and peaceful. I hope she will always be this way.

How to cut a Pineapple…as painful as it is.
By Jane on August 30, 2010
Occasionally, we will get a craving for pineapples. I prefer FRESH over CANNED (Healthier, no preservatives, not imported from China, no High Fructose Corn Syrup) and this is the season for it. However, cutting a fresh pineapple is a bit of a PAIN. Not too bad, but for someone like me who doesn’t usually like [...]

Sneezing and reminded that I need to practice my kegels more.
By Jane on December 27, 2009
I saw this on a aisle in the toys section during the holidays. They are Little Mommy Baby Achoo dolls. Only Little Momma on the right looks like she she’s had a rough night. Girlfriend must have been sneezing up a storm already. LOL

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 [...]

Kwik Kwote: Chick-fil-A on a Sunday
By Jane on October 4, 2009
I’m sitting outside…guess where…yes, Starbucks. I see two male teenagers sitting in their car, ready to leave to get to their next destination. Teenboy 1 to teenboy 2: “Dude, do you mind going thru the drive-thru of Chick-fil-a for a sec?… …Oh fuck! It’s Sunday, dude. They’re closed.” Now, how many of you have said [...]

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.

All Work and No Play??? NO WAY!!!
By Jane on August 31, 2009
We just had some tenants move out of one of our residential rental properties and so, it’s time for the cleaning crew to come in. By cleaning crew, I mean myself, Dick, and the girls. By doing it ourselves, we save big and the girls love a change of scenery. So, we pack our bags for a few days but since there’s nothing in the townhouse, so we also pack blankets, pillows, food and stuff to cook with (this helps cut down on expenses and time since we can just stay put and work). Yes, I’m a slave driver! No,

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 [...]

We drove by the Korean Restaurant on the way thru Korean town. Lucy and I found the name of the restaurant amusing. I know, we’re silly and stupid. Whatever.
