My girls take Private Art Classes weekly from an extremely talented artist. Magda is a dear friend and we are so lucky to have her in our lives. She has taught the girls so much about art, all the technical stuff that I have forgotten.

LANDLORDS BEWARE: Craigslist scam targeting landlords.
By Jane on August 11, 2010
I get SO MANY of these e-mails where someone PRETENDS to be interested in an ad that I’ve posted to rent one of my properties. I’ve compiled a list of typical things a scammer will tell you in their email. CRAIGSLIST RENTAL SCAM CHECKLIST: Usually, they are some kind of FOREIGNER who writes in somewhat [...]

Thankful that we are unscathed by record hail, rain, thunderstorms, and tornados.
By Jane on April 28, 2011
The South was hit SUPER HARD by a tremendous amount of thunderstorms, tornados and crazy hail. Some of my friends were reporting baseball and golfball-sized hail, dinged-up cars, damage to their houses, and leaking roofs. Dick was out of town so we went to my parents’ house. As soon as we heard the pounding of [...]

Louise and I pick our favorite Classic Cadillac.
By Jane on March 6, 2011
Louise and I are waiting for Thelma while she’s at the Training Academy. We drove the Caddie today, so to keep ourselves busy and kill some time, we decide to thumb through THE MANNUAL. I’m just a ball of FUN to hang with, aren’t I? Actually, there are pictures of some really beautiful Classic Caddies. [...]

Impatience at the Post Office. What do you expect?
By Jane on December 18, 2010
I had to go to the post office to mail off some photos for a client. It was Friday, around 2:30pm and as you can imagine, it was JAM PACKED. The line has extended far beyond the other side of the door to actually gets you within visibility of the agents that work behind the [...]

The girls see their room and kinda help with the closet.
By Jane on March 10, 2010
I held off as long as I could to surprise the girls with their “new” room. Even though I wasn’t finished, I was dying to show them. Plus, they had to come home from my parent’s house at some point. THEIR REACTION Louise was screaming like a crazed girl in love with some teeny-bopper celebrity. [...]

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!

New beds for the girls. With the frames still in boxes, the girls have fun with the bedding.
By Jane on December 28, 2010
As you may know, the girls share a room and they also share a lounging type futon bed. We love that bed as it is quite comfortable. I also am a firm believer that making kids share a room makes them closer and teaches them to share early on. Lucy and I shared a room [...]

Article: “Why Chinese Mothers are Superior”: Words from a militant mom who is full of crap.
By Jane on January 14, 2011
One of my dear friends sent me a link to an article about “Why Chinese Mothers are Superior”. Already from the title, I knew what this article was going to be about but I read it anyway to see what kind of crap was going to come spewing out of this woman. She starts out [...]

The girls and I are driving through the Midwest to get to Toronto!!
By Jane on July 6, 2010
You remember my Aussie cousin, MIA, who was touring around Mexico and Central America? Well she’s swinging back around to visit us one more time before she’s off to return to her home on the other side of the world. Since the last time I saw her before this was 20 years ago, I don’t want to [...]

And the stitches come out…not as traumatizing this time.

Five days after Thelma’s skating incident and we’re headed back in the ER to have her stitches removed. Look how happy she is. I hope it stays this way….

A little while back, I stopped using lotions. Any kind of lotions…for the hands, body, face, suntan/block lotions. I just don’t use them anymore. Why? Well, it started years ago when I was reading that book that book, Natural Cures by Kevin Trudeau. And actually, that book is not really that great of a book, but the one [...]

Cali’s weather is unpredictable where it could be hot one day and cold the next so we have to pack an assortment of everything. Winter clothes are big and take up alot of space you know. (Is it officially winter yet?)

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 [...]
