For some reason, kids just have this inherent need to have pets. They just want to take care of something and call it their own. Like most kids, my kids wanted to be the parents of their own puppy. Fanny Mae had bought an adorable little Pekingnese for herself, so when my mom brought the [...]

Reasonable Ron’s AGAIN: This time, it’s just me and the girls.
By Jane on May 8, 2010
As I mentioned, the Lexus we just got needs two tires replaced. However, when we went to have them changed, we discovered that the LOCK KEY for the WHEELS is missing. So, I have to pick one up at Lexus first. This key is necessary because one of the lug nuts is a different size…used [...]

My girls met up with some of their BOY friends, not boyfriends, at the park to play the other day.

Not exactly roughing it for a third world country.
By Jane on March 1, 2011
The last time I was in Vietnam was over ten years ago and alot has changed since then. What used to be rustic and poor-looking has turned into a metropolitan nouveau city with plenty of tourism. From the pictures of the hotels that my family stayed in, they weren’t exactly “roughing it” in any rustic-type [...]

The kids want some new furniture…
By Jane on December 14, 2009
This nouveau furniture store is right around the corner from Lucy’s house. The kids love it but somehow, I just don’t think the style suites my house. I do love the white couch and chair that is behind Thelma.

Dick tries to blame me for a flat tire we got. Unbelievable!
By Jane on October 25, 2011
Thelma’s girls volleyball league was invited to go watch a collegiate – level ladies volleyball game and have the team members give them a clinic afterwards. So, our team decided to go. We were on our way when all of a sudden, something sounded funny. Then Dick says, “Oh, crap, I forgot about the nail [...]

I lose Dick’s keys and make PROPER use of Lucy’s “Apology” note pad she gave me.
By Jane on April 22, 2010
All day I’ve been pressure washing the deck, putting away stuff in the shed, cleaning, blowing leaves off the roof of the house, planting flowers…and in between all that, I lost Dick’s keys. (Because I went to get gas for my machines and didn’t put the keys back where they belong.) RUMMAGING THROUGH TRASH SUCKS [...]
We’re on our way to LaLa Land!!
By Jane on December 11, 2009
We’re off to Los Angeles, California, otherwise known as Lala Land. We’re super excited to see my sister, Lucy Lu and Dick’s sister’s family and his Mom for the Holidays. We get through security after having basically stripped down. It’s so ridiculous that we have to take off shoes.

Winter and 78F in LA. How nice.
By Jane on January 10, 2010
It’s pretty warm considering the rest of the country is getting snow. Lucy’s car is reporting 78F for the outside temperature. Its weird because in the near distance you can see snowcaps on the mountains right in front of us. -Jane, Lover of Warm Weather

My painted face: Jane’s simple, unchanging and much-needed make-up style.
By Jane on September 14, 2011
I used to be the kind of person that would just be MORTIFIED if anyone saw me without make-up but over the years, I’ve become more comfortable with myself and I realized that people really just don’t give a shit. They may think in their head, “Da-ang, girlfriend look like ass without her make-up on.” [...]

My $12 Goodwill Dress. This summer dress has been WINTERIZED.
By Jane on February 22, 2010
As I posted the other day, I recently found a really nice dress at Goodwill. The dress was still brand new, with tags with an original price tag of $72. However, I get it for the fabulous price of $12! Considering it’s winter and this is more of a summer dress, I was kinda bummed [...]

Surprise visit on my birthday.
By Jane on April 10, 2011
I’m 36 this year. Not a major milestone. And, with me being pregnant this year, no dress-up party like last year. Remember mine and June’s joint birthday bash… Pimps N’ Ho’s? I just wasn’t feelin’ it this year and just wanted to chill with my family. My birthday started out with Dick and the girls making [...]

How much do you really need to be rich?
By Jane on August 11, 2010
That was the title of the article I came across this article on the homepage of Yahoo. You probably saw it too if Yahoo is your homepage. Click HERE for the article if you have’t seen it. However, before reading the article, I already knew the answer. Yes, I’m Mz. Smarty-pants Jane. “Rich” is not [...]

Biking Out to Starbucks with Lucy & Oscar
By Jane on November 28, 2009
We’re doing the biking Starbucks thing. This time though, we have an extra special guest. Oscar! Lucy is of course a special guest too but Oscar is the baby, so he gets more attention. Look how Hollywood Oscar is with his hoodie, purse, and basket.

I hope you all had a great Labor Day weekend. I know, I’ve been slacking at blogging but me SEESTER was in town. We just chilled and relaxed the whole weekend with the family…very low key. Sometimes, that’s just what one needs. Of course, now comes all the work. -Jane. Chilled and Relaxed.

I’ve decided that I don’t need an occasion to dress the way I like. I’m going to do whatever makes me happy and wear what makes me happy…like when I went grocery shopping in my PJs the other day. Today, I’m going Goth and biking out to Starbucks because the weather is amazing for January…it’s [...]

CD Chaos makes this Jane flip her SHIZ.
By Jane on January 27, 2010
Dick LOVES music. He has a huge collection of CDs that started when he was a kid in Germany. Only, all of them were stuck in diaper boxes since our move back to Metropolis and have been there for the last five years. Dick got a wild hair in his butt was inspired to take [...]
Introducing color #3: I stray from the brochure and go HOT.
By Jane on March 8, 2010
After painting first two colors (Hep Green and Reflecting Pool), I notice that the colors on my walls are turning out darker than the ones in the brochure. However, I’m still DETERMINED to pull this room together and make it FABULOUS for my girls. The girl’s room is low lit so that’s why the colors [...]

HORSE DUNG launched at police during G20 Protests. Ew!
By Jane on July 12, 2010
Great view but nothing really exciting on the roof, so us Chicas continue on. We walk a little further and see some people standing around in the distance. The owner of this orange sports car has some balls parking so close to the protests. He’s the only car in the lot. More police standing around [...]

Thelma and Mommy Alone Time: Biking to Pier 1 and Starbucks.
By Jane on February 17, 2011
Lately, Thelma and I don’t get to spend that much time alone. Her and Dick have alot in common and tend to gravitate toward each other. However, she’s still my baby and I thought we could use some ALONE TIME together. So, we decided to go hang out while Dick and Louise went for a [...]

My kids have a few jokes to tell.
By Jane on October 1, 2010
Thelma is often telling us jokes that she made up herself. Most times, we have to think about it for a second and then still, she’ll have to explain it to us. Leaving us thinking…hmmmmm. However, it’s usually funny to us because well, (1) we’re her parents and (2) just the innocence of her train [...]
