My cousin Taylor has this incredibly LONG and THICK hair. She was looking for a change so I helped her out. Sometimes long and straight is kinda boring. We take quite a bit off. Those who choose to use me to cut their hair do so at their own risk as I have no formal [...]

Fall flowers for your blah day…
By Jane on October 10, 2009
There’s still some flowers around even though it’s fall. Enjoy. A SHADE OF RED. Dahlia. Still alive with blossoms. A SHADE OF GREEN. Pink Chrysanthamums. These are perrenials, which for those who lack the green thumb, means they come back every year by themselves. In fact, they multiply like mad and have taken over my [...]

My good friend of ten years, Orlando Bloom, is in LA visiting his family for the holidays. I met Orlando when we both worked at Ford together. We were in the same New Employee Orientation group as my other friends seen at the Pimps and Ho’s party.

Close-ups of the orchids, so you can fully appreciate their beauty! (NOTE: All pics were taken with my little Canon G11 point and shoot camera.) Enjoy! THE LADY SLIPPERS Lady Slipper Orchids are one of my favorite varieties of orchid. They are just gorgeous!! They are called Lady Slipper due to the slipper-shape pouches of the flower. If you’re a Lady [...]

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 [...]

Damn those word confirmations that verify if you’re human!
By Jane on August 13, 2010
I just love how these days you have to type in word confirmations where you have to use Million-Dollar Man type vision to try to decipher MORPHED ILLEGIBLE WORDS so the system can identify that you are indeed HUMAN and not some computer who is generating a bunch of automatic posts or whatever it is [...]

Back into the groove. Homeschooling at Starbucks again.
By Jane on September 29, 2011
Because the weather was so nice, and because I can’t seem to stay away, the whole family ventured to Starbucks to homeschool. It’s days like this that make homeschooling more fun and I don’t have to be muttering under my breath between gritted teeth, “I hate teaching, I hate teaching!” Usually, I’m saying that when [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]
Late Night Kitchen Cleaning and Laundry Folding.
By Jane on November 25, 2009
I’m a late night person. I have a very strange schedule these days. Working late into the night is one of my all time ultimate favorite times to work because it’s ABSOLUTELY quiet. No cars, no kids screaming “Mommy, Mommy”. I can get alot done at night. 12:30 AM KITCHEN CLEANING. It’s 12:30 AM and [...]

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. [...]

Louise and Daddy duke it out…Kung Fu Panda-Style.
By Jane on December 15, 2009
One of the reasons I love Dick so much is that he’s really a fantastic Dad. Dick ADORES his girls and loves hanging with them, playing sports with them, wrestling with them, watching cartoons with them, etc. Being a big kid himself, all of this comes super naturally and easily.

Louise gets sick on her Birthday. We make it up by going to Cracker Barrel.
By Jane on March 18, 2010
SUCKS TO BE SICK ON YOUR BIRTHDAY Louise has been counting down to her birthday since the beginning of the year. It’s crazy how much kids anticipate these things. Sadley, on the VERY DAY of her birthday, she had a horrible cough, high fever, complained of stomach pains and was breathing very strangely. Short pants [...]
Some added PIZZAZZ: More Custom wall painting
By Jane on March 11, 2010
In addition to painting the walls, I also wanted to add something “extra”. I went online and found some inspiration for the room. The flowers are just beautiful. I love the colors but decide to replicate it in a simpler form. I pencil the drawing on the wall first. This is where the bulk of [...]

Dinner at Katsuya Sushi on low key and fabulous New Year’s Eve.
By Jane on January 1, 2010
I have never really partied on New Year’s Eve. I always spend it at home, chillin. I think it’s because it’s cold and I really don’t want to venture out. Plus, with all the drunks out there, I would rather be with my family. As you can imagine, there’s tons to do in LA for [...]

I just discovered that I am also a poet. I found this poem I wrote in my newly found GREEN INDEX CARD HOLDER. Written probably about some boy I had a crush on. I must have thought the poem was pretty good otherwise I wouldn’t have taped it to this lovely green piece of construction [...]

Getting our energy out at the Gymnastics place.
By Jane on September 23, 2010
We have access to a great Gymnastics place that opens up their gym to the public and allows kids to run around and play at their HUGE facility for only $5 an hour per child! Believe me, an hour is plenty. We’re not interested in adding yet another activity to our schedules but I love [...]
