I’m taking Thelma and Louise on a field trip with their homeschool co-op. Where are we going today? We’re headed to Parrot Mountain and Wonderworks. Because our co-op scheduled a group tour, we were able to get a discount at Parrot Mountain for only $5 per child, one parent is free. Also, [...]

From SKIRT to DRESS: If you don’t like it, then you shoulda put a belt on it!
By Jane on November 10, 2010
As we sort through the clothes to keep during our CLOSET CLEANSING, I come across a skirt that the girls say they DON’T WANT anymore. I always have to sort through the stuff they dub “DON’T WANT/FIT” because even when they say they don’t like something, I know better…you know, cause I’m Mom! Funny thing [...]

Annoyed by a Kiosk Vendor who oils, combs and straightens my hair.
By Jane on March 7, 2011
So, we’re doing our best to make it to the Orchid Show and not be distracted by all the shops and plethora of THINGS. (Yes, I said plethora…what of it?) Then, one of those Kiosk Vendors who has the hair products/wigs/hair appliances gives me a “free sample“…a moisturizer to make your hair shiny. I take [...]

A little snow is not going to keep us from going out. It’s our 14-year anniversary!
By Jane on February 1, 2010
Yes, it’s been 14 years since our very first date and we go out to celebrate. Being that we had this “snow storm”, no one is out and many places are closed.

I just realized while doing the Sunday United Crossword puzzle that “opinion” comes from “opine” – to think. Yes, slowly but surely… -Jane, Lifetime Student

Christmas is over but it’s still nice to come home to this kind of view. Lucy and Martha have such a cozy place. I could maybe live here so long as I don’t have to drive too much. -Jane, House-sitter

Thelma and Mommy Alone Time: Biking to Pier 1 and Starbucks.
By Jane on February 17, 2011
Lately, Thelma and I don’t get to spend that much time alone. Her and Dick have alot in common and tend to gravitate toward each other. However, she’s still my baby and I thought we could use some ALONE TIME together. So, we decided to go hang out while Dick and Louise went for a [...]

Our first trip to the mountains this summer.
By Jane on June 3, 2010
Every year since I was a kid, we go the mountains during the summer for some FAMILY FUN. Our tradition is that we go to the same spot, pack lunch and just CHILL. My parents, Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac, usually go with us and they always have the MOST FABULOUS lunch ready for us. [...]

From Sunny LA to the freezing cold of the South!
By Jane on January 12, 2010
Yes, after being in Los Angeles for a month, we’re coming back home. We’ve just got off the plane and like I mentioned before, I’m ready to hop right back on and go back to LA. -IT’S FRIGGIN’ COLD!! Yes, LA is superficial and plastic but it’s also WARM and SUNNY! The days are around [...]

The girls put on Make-up for Mommy.
By Jane on January 19, 2010
Like most girls, mine love to play with make-up. I don’t really like for them to wear make-up because I think it looks silly on kids…and only for rare occasions. They are so beautiful naturally. Instead, I let them put some on me the other day for fun. Tres chic no? -Jane, Made-over by her [...]

Thelma and Louise, awesome baby helpers.
By Jane on July 11, 2011
Because they girls are now 8 and 9, they’re big enough now to do many things themselves and they are fantastic helpers with the baby. That’s some good planning on mine and Dick’s part…NOT. Even still, the girls are the best helpers a mommy could ask for. Remember when I told you lazy busy parents [...]

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 [...]

Queenie Quote Update: Queenie responds to my blog about her.
By Jane on January 8, 2011
Upon reading the blog I just posted about her: “Why she do like that?” LOL. Yesterday. Queenie is like everyone’s GODMOTHER. People come to her for advice or many times, she just gives it. Quote yesterday, on people giving you shit: “Now you learn lesson for people give you shit.” And she don’t take SHIT from [...]

Dick gets “new” shoes. Tenant leaves behind a pair of Nike Lebron James 20-5-5.
By Jane on September 1, 2011
We always have “gifts” that the tenants leave behind and it’s usually because they don’t want to move their crap or they just don’t want it anymore. We’ve gotten a stereo, beds, furniture, pots and pans, washer and dryer, etc. While cleaning up the garage of our property, Dick found a pair of men’s tennis [...]

Taking Benz outside for some Vitamin D.
By Jane on June 2, 2011
At only 5 days old, the sun was out and so I decided to take my sweet Benz out so he could get some Vitamin D. OMG, words can’t even describe how in love I am with this little guy. So dang sweet… He’s just tiny! Only 5 lbs 8 oz because breast-fed babies tend [...]

Kwik Kwote: Chick-fil-A on a Sunday
By Jane on October 4, 2009
I’m sitting outside…guess where…yes, Starbucks. I see two male teenagers sitting in their car, ready to leave to get to their next destination. Teenboy 1 to teenboy 2: “Dude, do you mind going thru the drive-thru of Chick-fil-a for a sec?… …Oh fuck! It’s Sunday, dude. They’re closed.” Now, how many of you have said [...]

A friend of mine sent me this forward and I found it amusing. Yes, it doesn’t take much to amuse me. This is a Chinese Eye Test. Can’t read it? Try pulling your eyes out to the sides, as if you were Chinese. It’s a good thing I have good vision. -Jane, 20/20 Vision Woman

The family goes watch a ladies college-level volleyball game. TN vs Ole Miss!!
By Jane on October 26, 2011
After being annoyed that Dick tried to set blame of the flat tire on me, I was able to get over it so that we could still enjoy watching the Lady Vols play against Ole Miss. From what we hear, there is quite a rivalry between these two teams and so it should be an [...]

SOMEONE forgot to empty their pockets before putting their clothes in the dirty pile.
By Jane on March 14, 2010
I’m doing like a thousand loads of laundry…at least that’s what it feels like. Of course I don’t bother to empty the pockets of the clothes. I expect whoever puts their stuff in the dirty pile to do that. I don’t have time to double check for these things. So, I go to retrieve all [...]
