So, we decide to get rid of all the shit that is cluttering our office because…a cluttered house is a cluttered mind! My house isn’t as messy as like one of those houses you see on Clean House (Great show!) but cleanliness breeds for better quality of thinking and good feng shui for the room. [...]

Buying from local small businesses: Lemonade, Jerk Chicken, and Peaches.
By Jane on August 12, 2010
We try to BUY LOCAL more than we BUY ORGANIC. Organic is great too if it’s local and fresh but at the grocery store, if you have to choose between local and organic, go LOCAL. Surprised? Well, most of the organic produce is traveling from across the country (or world) to get to your grocery [...]

I came to get down, so JUMP AROUND!
By Jane on March 17, 2010
An oldie but goodie. For some, like me, this will take you back to HIGH SCHOOL. Now I wasn’t too crazy when I was in high school (I made up for it later) but I know some of you were. This should bring back some memories. Cypress Hill’s Jump Around. I loves me some Cypress [...]

Caught in the rain, in the convertible!
By Jane on September 23, 2010
Towards the end of summer, we were at the pool for one of our final times to enjoy it while it was still open. We were only there for about 30 minutes when the dark clouds start rolling in. Still savoring the moment, the girls and Dick were enjoying their peaches. Not sure why she [...]

Finally, after two years…Christmas with the family.
By Jane on January 2, 2012
Alright, so I’m going out of order but here are some pictures of our Christmas last week. For me, the best part of Christmas is not about the presents but having family get together. I’m excited to have my family together since last year my parents, sister, and aunt all left me to go to [...]

Jane: Possessed by the monthly demon.
By Jane on November 12, 2009
I get so annoyed when Dick asks me to do stuff he can easily do himself. Like using me as a third party to relay messages. What am I your personal assistant??? This is the time of the month where I get all huffy puffy, fussy wussy, and bitchy-bitchy. Things like this normally wouldn’t bother [...]
George Costanza was on to something when he made a bed under his desk.
By Jane on November 11, 2009
I am known to be able to fall asleep anywhere, anytime, in a matter of minutes. I have no trouble sleeping on a train, a plane, in a car, on the bus, etc. I’m not narcoleptic as my dear sister would proclaim but I have fallen asleep while talking on the phone before, mid sentence. [...]

PAINTING FRENZIE: The front porch gets an uplift too.
By Jane on May 11, 2010
It’s spring and since it’s still somewhat nice outside and not too hot, I like to do some work around the house. Not only did the back porch need some lovin’, the front porch does too! See where I went pressure-washer crazy?

Benz has been crawling for the last month or so and wants to go places. The other day, he wanted to go mess with the blinds, one of his favorite past times, and got stuck between the bed and the wall. I had put a pillow in between there so he wouldn’t hurt himself but [...]

Backtracking a bit to Benz’s 4-month doctor visit.
By Jane on October 27, 2011
Benz is now 5-months old but, since I’m so behind on blogging, let’s backtrack to his 4-month doctor visit. Dick is in town and wants to come with us to the Doctor’s office. Such twins, ey? So, like many things we do…it’s a family affair. Thelma even brought her school stuff along. Such good girls [...]

Homemade chicken noodle soup to stay warm in this cold weather.
By Jane on January 16, 2010
My kids love chicken noodle soup, especially when it’s cold. You don’t need a ton of ingredients and can easily throw it together. This time, I just used what I had. Since I had some chicken thighs in the fridge, I used that to make the broth. It’s fattier, but unfortunately, that’s the fat that makes it tasty.

Jane’s Maternity Wear. Dare to wear horizontal stripes.
By Jane on March 25, 2011
Typically, they say horizontal stripes are unflattering, especially if you don’t want to look more WIDE than LONG. Of course, I’d rather look LONGER THAN WIDER but there are very few items left in my closet that can still double as maternity. Like this one. Remember, I’m trying to ride it out without having to purchase too [...]

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 [...]

Goodwill Shopping. Among the junk there are some good finds to be had.
By Jane on February 21, 2010
Dick and I happened to be on the other side of town so we decided to pop into a Goodwill there to see what they have since it’s bigger than the one close to us. I give away alot of stuff to Goodwill but I also like to shop there. Some of my most favorite [...]

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! [...]

Guy banging on my door wants to cut down my beloved tree.
By Jane on February 8, 2010
Just had some loud ass guy bang on my door a million times like he wants to bust the door down. And, I hear him on the cell saying “yeah, i’m bangin on the door now”. Now if that don’t make a person paranoid. Listen, I don’t answer the door if I am not expecting [...]

Girls Only Trip – Taking Care of Business…and Dinosaurs
By Jane on September 13, 2009
Dick has been out in Cali visiting his family for two weeks and so I’m left here to take care of the things that he can’t. Usually, it’s Dick who drives four hours to Gotham City whenever we have to take care of our residential rental properties, the car business, or our commercial properties. The property that we just cleaned up is still vacant and there are two girls who are interested in looking at it. We have a friend who can show the property for us but since he has no vested interest in it, I feel it’s better that I show it myself. I decide to take the girls and hit the road. This is going to be a nice one-nighter girls-only trip!

Even though we planned on having Thelma’s birthday in LA, a last minute party was thrown together the night before we decided to have Thelma’s birthday. Hours before the party and I’m running around getting last minute items for the party. We had invited guests to come at 1:00 but we were NOT anywhere close to being ready [...]

OMG!! Just found some of my childhood stuff: The Green Index Card Box.
By Jane on February 25, 2010
I was going thru my old room at my mom’s house. She’s your typical Vietnamese woman that keeps everything. Although I’m not usually a fan of hoarding, there are some things that bring back so many memories and give me a good laugh. So, I think this might be a series of posts as there [...]
