When we were in LA, Thelma was begging me to go ice skating like EVERY DAY. She missed it SO much. Around the corner from J Lo’s place was one of those small, temporary outdoor rinks they set up over the “winter” in her area. I don’t like these because usually the ice is really [...]

I came to get down, so JUMP AROUND!
By Jane on March 17, 2010
An oldie but goodie. For some, like me, this will take you back to HIGH SCHOOL. Now I wasn’t too crazy when I was in high school (I made up for it later) but I know some of you were. This should bring back some memories. Cypress Hill’s Jump Around. I loves me some Cypress [...]

Dick is in love…with an Antique 1968 Mercedes 250s.
By Jane on December 1, 2010
Dick spots the car of his dreams while we were driving around. It was a beautiful antique 1968 Mercedes 250S. This car is in MINT condition and has only 36,000 miles on it. Unbelieveable! Look at the old school knob to adjust the seat. I’m not sure what the leather looks like underneath the fuzzy blue [...]

Another day, another park. Scavenger hunts, tag, and fun, fun, fun.
By Jane on October 14, 2009
Since we happened to be in downtown Metropolis, Dick and I decide to take Thelma and Louise to one of their favorite parks. It’s an amazing, great park built by community volunteers and the kids love it because it’s like a big maze for them.

Thelma helps me with Breakfast: Grits and omelet eggs with sausage.
By Jane on November 6, 2009

GRITS If you don’t know what grits are, you’re missing out! (Click HERE to see what Wiki can tell you about it.) A popular dish [...]

George Costanza was on to something when he made a bed under his desk.
By Jane on November 11, 2009
I am known to be able to fall asleep anywhere, anytime, in a matter of minutes. I have no trouble sleeping on a train, a plane, in a car, on the bus, etc. I’m not narcoleptic as my dear sister would proclaim but I have fallen asleep while talking on the phone before, mid sentence. [...]

Making use of old clothes. My new/old wardrobe.
By Jane on January 21, 2010
Remember I said I was going to try to use more of my clothes that are collecting dust? I’m trying to use something different daily that I haven’t worn in a long time. This takes alot more time getting ready as I have to be creative putting an outfit together, but it’s loads of fun [...]

A Chill Sunday. Dim sum, driving around, the park, and walking around.
By Jane on December 6, 2010
Our Sunday in Gotham City started off with a great Dim Sum brunch.We love Dim Sum and since we can’t get any in Metropolis, we look forward to it whenever we’re here. Afterward we got our fill of the scrumptious dumplings , we decided to drive around to some of the older, charming neighborhoods that Gotham [...]

I came across this old student desk from the 50s and I just loved it. The seat and desk height can be adjusted and the desk top lifts for storage of your school stuff. The gentleman I bought it from was so nice, he delivered it to my house. I was hoping he had two [...]

Swine Flu: To Vaccinate or Not to Vaccinate?
By Jane on October 1, 2009
I just read that a new H1N1 flu vaccination is on its way to the public so am I in high anticipation like everyone else? I don’t know too many people who are excited to be getting a sharp needle in your arm, or leg, or anywhere else! Lucky for me that I don’t like [...]

Jane’s Maternity Wear. Dare to wear horizontal stripes.
By Jane on March 25, 2011
Typically, they say horizontal stripes are unflattering, especially if you don’t want to look more WIDE than LONG. Of course, I’d rather look LONGER THAN WIDER but there are very few items left in my closet that can still double as maternity. Like this one. Remember, I’m trying to ride it out without having to purchase too [...]

Thelma turns 10 and has a night out on the town.
By Jane on December 18, 2011
My Thelma is TEN this year. Ten years old! I can’t believe it’s been ten years already. This year, instead of a party, Thelma, Louise and their best friend, Kristen Stewart, celebrated not only Thelma’s Birthday, but Kristen’s birthday as well cause it was not too long ago. Kristen came over to spend the night [...]

Impromptu photo shoot while picking up Lucy at the airport for Labor Day.
By Jane on September 21, 2011
I’m so utterly behind on blogging that I’m just now posting our Labor Day weekend pics. This is me, waiting for dear sis to arrive at the airport. Today, I’m donning my Princess Leia hair look. The girls always want to come with me to pick up their Auntie. Somehow we ended up getting there [...]

Sorry for the sparse blogs. I’m not quite sure but I think having a third child is taking up all my time. Blogging seems to have taken a back seat to enjoying time with my new son, kids, husband and and taking care of our daily meals, clean-up, homeschooling, businesses, and Starbucks. With everything going [...]

Thelma and Louise love to pretend to own a restaurant and have the adults be the customers. We’re at Fanny Mae’s house and Thelma and Louise have invited me to come to their restaurant. As the chefs for this restaurant, food sanitation and cleanliness is of UTMOST importance to them so Thelma and Louise are [...]

By Jane on December 16, 2011
Thelma gets called in to do a job where she actually has speaking parts. She’s so super duper excited because she currently LOVES her drama class and she has been waiting for a job to come along. Remember her last job was when she was making cookies for a cookbook. That was only last year and [...]
