So, as I mentioned, this is the year for organization in our house. I’m tired of just storing all this stuff when someone else can probably make better use of it. We’re still clearing out our closet and getting rid of stuff we don’t wear anymore. (Remember I had already started clearing out stuff before [...]

Painting the girls room. We’re going TECHNO! Color #1.
By Jane on March 7, 2010
It seems that around this time every year, when it starts to warm up, I get this urge to paint. Yes, this Jane loves to paint. I’ve been wanting to do the girls room for a while. The last time, I just painted some polka dots all over it with leftover paint I had over [...]

From our window, we have a view of many of the high rises that make up Gotham City’s sky line. Since it’s been a while since I’ve stayed here, I noticed this new building basically just pop up in front of that taller building you see. Then I noticed those guys that basically look like [...]

We have to stop at Office Depot because Lucy needs a converter for her camera memory cards. She also needs a toothbrush but doesn’t want to make multiple stops so she thinks she can get both at the Office Depot I tell her NO WAY does the Office Depot carry toothbrushes. We then make a [...]

These heels were not made for walking. They were made for BIKING.
By Jane on May 27, 2010
Over the weekend, Dick and I decided to take J Lo out for some drinks. We picked the Wild Wings Cafe because it has a great outdoor patio/bar area overlooking a pond and the weather is just SPECTACULAR and perfect for chilling outside. Parking is a bitch at this place (see all the cars wrapped [...]

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.

I love the lucky bamboo plants. Before it ever became such a popular home decor plant, I was enjoying it’s beauty, living in Japan. I loved my plant so much that I snuck it thru customs all the way across the world from Japan to the US ten yeas ago. That one is now dead [...]

Crotch rocket or Cruiser? This Jane prefers cruisers.
By Jane on April 26, 2010
I love motorcycles. I especially love Harley’s and Indians. As you an see, I’m more of a CRUISER type than the CROTCH ROCKETS like the NINJAS. Anyway, there was an cool-looking CHOPPER that was at the auction. Just thought I’d show you. It’s not for me but I like the way it looks. My legs are [...]

Remember how I told you I fall asleep easily? (No? Click HERE.) Yet another movie that I’ve only seen the first half of. Victim to falling asleep while watching a movie at home…again. When I’m physically at the movie theater I can usually stay awake. I’ve only fallen asleep during 2-3 of those. Anyone else [...]

Your Daily Osho: Retrospective Wisdom. It’s worthless! No one will listen to an insane person.
By Jane on February 1, 2011
Ohhh, this is SO hard to do…being aware when you’re at your angriest! At least it was for me. I remember the days when I would get so angry at Dick about “things” and would just lash out at him. I’d bring up everything from the past even though it wasn’t relevant, and it would [...]

Jane and Dick: Goth School Girl and Boy.
By Jane on November 2, 2010
As you may remember, Dick I were School Girl and Preppy School Boy last week. This week, I wanted to venture to the DARK side and get my yearly inner GOTH out. You know how much I am Goth at heart. So I brought out the chains and spiked studded jewelry. I really dig the chains and [...]

Shortly after the one top tooth fell out, Louise yanked out the loose one that was next to it too! Girlfriend is INSANE! Every time I see that big gap in the front it reminds me of a METH HEAD or CRACK HEAD. Just sayin’! I think it’s thuper-cute. LOL! Cutest meth head I’ve ever [...]

Jane: Victim of Forever Sharp Knife
By Jane on June 19, 2010
Around 7 years ago or so, I was DUPED into buying one of those FOREVER SHARP knives while shopping at Sam’s Club. I was minding my own business, shopping around, when I hear over the intercom… “Attention all shoppers. We will be giving away a FREE pearing knife in aisle [whatever aisle-like I remember]. Don’t miss [...]

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 [...]

Tooth Fairy makes multiple stops???
By Jane on August 7, 2010
Louise asked me the other day… “Mommy, does the Tooth Fairy really exist or is it just you and daddy sticking money under my pillow.” Gasp! Like the SANTA question, I didn’t know how to respond so I did the same thing when asked about Santa. “Do YOU think the Tooth Fairy is real?” “Well, I [...]

The Victorian Table gets the HOT treatment and June Cleaver suggests I trim it up!
By Jane on March 8, 2010
The room still needs more umph. BOLD is BEAUTIFUL. THE VICTORIAN TABLE I remember that I have an old ornate, although intricately molded plastic, table that looks like it was from the LOUIS XIV days. It’s in my shed collecting dust because two of it’s legs have fallen off. I kept it all this time [...]
