Today Dick and I went to the car auction to test drive cars. Tomorrow is the actual day of the auction and we need to scope out the cars we like ahead of time and make sure they are sound, clean and sell-able. I love it because I get to check out all the cars [...]

Visiting with the elderly neighbors on a walk to the Grandparents’ house.
By Jane on July 12, 2011
The other day we were going to go for an after-dinner walk to my parent’s house. Since their house is less than a mile away it’s a great short, casual walk. First we play a little soccer in the yard. Benz is strapped in and ready to go into a Baby Bjorn given to me [...]

Mommy sacrifices warmth so the family’s buns can stay warm while watching a night soccer game.
By Jane on November 3, 2010
Since it was the last game of the season, and since the family has SOCCER FEVER, we decide to take the girls to a night game. I’m exhausted, and a cold weather hater, but I tag along anyway because this is a family affair…and it would not be complete without ME! But, being my absent minded cold weather [...]

Metropolis gets hit by snow again!
By Jane on January 10, 2011
I’ve been waiting for this snow all night since they kept saying the Southeast was going to get hit by a storm again. And finally, it came! It’s 6am now and here are pictures that I just took of my front and back yard. As you can see, it’s still dark outside. FRONT BACK We’re [...]

The cold Pacific water of Santa Monica Beach and fun in the sand.
By Jane on March 15, 2012
Our first full day in LA and we hit the beach. Mostly we hit the beach because Dick ran from Lucy’s house in West Hollywood, took Santa Monica Blvd all the way to Santa Monica Beach and then wanted me to meet him there because he wouldn’t want to run back home. It was a [...]

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. [...]

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!”

Gobble Gobble. Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours.
By Jane on November 25, 2010
I just wanted to wish everyone an extremely great Thanksgiving. I have so much to be thankful for and I hope to try to remember that daily rather than once a year. My favorite thing about the holidays is, hands down, having the family come together. It’s all about that for me. This year, my sis [...]

Family from LA, Austrailia, and Toronto visit us in Metropolis.
By Jane on March 23, 2010
As I said, I have a ton of family visiting me. My cousin, M.I.A., is visiting from Australia. The last time I saw her was 20 years ago when I was 15 and she was 5. Here we are at Niagara Falls. It’s 1989 and yes, I had permed hair back then and stone washed [...]

The family goes to see Avatar. It does not disappoint!!
By Jane on March 3, 2010
I have been wanting to see Avatar long before it came out but haven’t been able to go see it until now. Of course, by now, it’s raked in a record $2.5 Billion worldwide and James Cameron will continue to rake in bazillions of dollars until long after he’s gone. I really didn’t know what [...]

Just because I’m in my last trimester doesn’t mean the work stops. Besides loving to cut my grass, I wanna make sure I’m in shape to deliver this baby. Sometimes it’s a bumpy ride…hopefully this won’t put me into labor. Although I may use it as an alternative to be naturally induced. Ha! Yep, still [...]

Christmas tree finally up. Let’s hope it stays that way.
By Jane on December 5, 2011
We get home and it’s time to lug the tree into the house. Neither Lucy nor I want to touch the tree cause you know it’s got all that gooey, sticky sap and we don’t want to get our outfits dirty. Yes, we were being girly-girls. Whatevs. Sometimes you have to. Louise cuts the string [...]

Homeschooling at Starbucks. That’s right, Starbucks!
By Jane on September 17, 2009
Sometimes the kids need a change of environment when we homeschool so I decide to move the classroom to STARBUCKS. Yes, Starbucks….because when you homeschool, you can do that! We take our butts, our books, and our bikes out to the land of Java so that Mommy can also get her much needed caffeine.
