You may or may not know that I am the one who takes care of the yard work in our family. Yes, I’m the “yard boy” or if you live out in California, I’m the “gardener”. Either way, I mow the grass, weedwack, edge, and leaf blow. It takes me about 2.5 hours to do my 1+ acre yard the way I like it. Yes, I’m anal about the yard. I like it to look neat and pristine, hence I do not let Dick cut the grass…not that he would volunteer to do it anyway.

Benz explodes from being in the 5th to the 70th percentile in two months!
By Jane on August 1, 2011
It’s time for Benz’s two-month doctor’s visit and I’m running late. Surprise, surprise. I didn’t even remember that I had the appointment for that day when I woke up in the morning. I had just randomly called to see when my appointment would be, thinking it was in a few days, but the receptionist advised [...]

And we’re off to the City of Angels, Lala Land, El Lay…Los Angeles!!
By Jane on March 13, 2012
It’s been two years since we’ve been in Los Angeles and my sister wants us to visit. So we’re taking a couple of weeks off (we can do that when we homeschool) and bringing the whole family for spring break and Persian New Year to visit her in Lala Land! The last time we were [...]

It takes how long to go how far?

You see? I wasn’t lying. The GPS in the car says 27 minutes to go 6.5 miles. –Jane, Stuck in LA Traffic

I sent my blog link to all my family and my lovely Mom, Fanny Mae, didn’t seem amused by it. Why? She asked me, with some hesitation, “Is it ok for you to use words like ‘fucking’… in public… like in a blog?’”. I just had to laugh, respectfully of course. My mom is [...]

This year, Lucy and I hosted Thanksgiving Dinner at my house this year. I have made Thanksgiving dinner one time by myself and that was long ago, before Dick and I even had kids. Usually, Freddy Mac is the one who makes our yummy Thanksgiving dinner but this year Lucy and I thought we would [...]

Let me tell you about my girl Confuchsia. Similar to Confuscius but it’s ConFuchsia, like fuchsia, the magenta color. Who even knew that fuchsia was even spelled like that?!?!? I’ve been getting it wrong all this time! Confuchsia and I clicked right off the bat. What I like about her is that Confuchsia speaks her mind and she [...]

Your daily Benz: Notorious B(enz).I.G.
By Jane on August 12, 2011
Sweet Benz was chillaxing in the pool in a floating device that my friend showed me he had for his baby. I got it at Target for $20 and it even has a cover that snaps in to shade him but I haven’t used it yet. We decided we needed a floaty because holding [...]

Thelma gets burned from Hot Cocoa.
By Jane on June 22, 2010
While I was with Louise at the photo shoot. I get a frantic call from Thelma. She’s crying like crazy and I can hardly understand her. I’m dying inside because I’m two hours away and there’s nothing I can do. My mom had taken Thelma to work with her while I was with Louise. She [...]

Jane and Dick, victims to an exploding Benz.
By Jane on August 3, 2011
We like to let Benz lay around naked and be “free” without the confines of a papery diaper every now and then. FREE AND NAKED I usually only do this after Benz has done his business so that I can reduce my chances of having further “accidents”. His skin is so soft and yummy. See [...]

As you can see, we’ve been through quite a few hairstyles. I can’t believe how much she’s grown. Almost makes me sad to see how fast time flies. I love you so much sweet thang. -Jane, Mother of Lovely Thelma.

Finally ready to assemble the Twin Beds.
By Jane on December 30, 2010
After nearly waiting two weeks in high anticipation of having their own NEW beds, we are finally ready to start the assembly process. We start with one bed and take out all the pieces. I’m in charge of reading the instructions and telling everyone what to do. As Dick points out, “You ARE the Eng-gin-eer!”

So while I was hanging with my girl having coffee, her “man friend” calls. “Man friend” was asking her what she was doing. Confuscia says…(matter-of-factly) “We hangin’ out here at the Starbucks lookin’ like a million bucks.” LOL. -Jane, Friend to Confuscia.

My mom sends me tons of forwards….some get read, some don’t. This one was a cute one, full of pictures of Japanese lunch boxes. The Japanese are all about PRESENTATION and it shows! But, who has the kind of time to put something like this together! They’re like pieces of art. Food Art!
