By Jane on March 20, 2011

Serial Cheaters. Tiger Woods…Surprised / Not Surprised?
By Jane on December 4, 2009
I’m reading all this stuff about Tiger Woods and it’s surprising, yet not really surprising. SURPRISING I guess because Tiger Woods is a mega-superstar who has this clean/good boy image, a gorgeous wife and two kids. I think he’s fugly and lucky to have such a beautiful wife. People always wonder why men stray when [...]

Thelma and Louise came up to me the other day requesting that I give them SUMMER HAWKS. “Mommy, we want mohawks.” “What, now? Like, right now?” I love that my kids are FIERCE but I guess I get nervous because I am unsure of my ability to give them a proper cut that wouldn’t result [...]

Short hair. Long hair. Which do you prefer?
By Jane on November 15, 2010
My girls go back and forth between short and long hair. Usually, it’s summer when they want their hair short. But now, summer is over and the girls are wanting their hair to grow out. Slowly but surely, it’s getting there. Of course, by the time their hair becomes long again, it’ll be summer again. [...]

By Jane on October 31, 2009
Remember when we went to the Mayfield Corn Maze? Well, I picked up a good size pumpkin there and it’s been sitting there until well…now. Thelma, Louise and I finally decided that we would carve the pumpkin. A bit last minute but better than never.
Hangnails: Amazing how such a tiny thing can cause SO MUCH PAIN.
By Jane on March 12, 2010
Hangnails are the absolute WORST. They are little pieces of torn skin around your cuticles and it’s usually because your skin is dry. Mine is dried to hell from painting and washing my hands constantly. Plus, it’s winter and my bony hands just get dry. One time, I held my own hand and I was [...]

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.

What do you do when your kids ask the ultimate question: Is Santa real?
By Jane on December 1, 2009
It is the inevitable question that every parent faces at some point or another. Louise is asking me AGAIN if Santa is real. The answer? Not so easy. Do you continue with your trickery so that your child can believe in the goodness that is Santa Claus? Or tell them the truth and hope there [...]

Thelma was inspired to do a painting the other day. She found this extra piece of plywood I had in our shed and painted it white. Working on her masterpiece. Truly an artist at work. It’s almost like she’s doing a dance. Go on girl! Get that creativity out! -Jane, Mother of Artistic Thelma.

Thelma brings in some smoothies to my office while I was here working. I thought she had made me something to drink and was bringing it to me. How thoughtful! But, before she handed me one, she said… “WAIT.” Then, she proceeds to show me the sign. Being the creative entreprenuer that she is, she [...]
