It’s time to retreive Daddy since he’s been gone for over 2 weeks in LaLa Land (A.k.a. LA, Los Angeles). We found a great reasonable flight that is direct but it’s a 3 hour drive to this airport. Dick’s flight is supposed to arrive at 3:30pm and so I’m rushing to hit the road after Mother-Daughter [...]

Vintage Jane and Lucy, Sisters.
By Jane on January 5, 2011
I came across an old picture of Lucy and me. It was taken while we were at the beach together around 1994 or so. We were going through our short-hair phase. Miss you sister! Wish I were in VN traveling with you!! -Jane, Sister to Lovely Lucy.

With having had a new baby, I decided we would take it easy over the summer and so only one sport…SWIMMING. And although last year was our first year on the swim team, we missed quite a few practices due to the burn that Thelma got but we also took time off to go to [...]

Jane back in the day: Gen Xer and 80s Fashionista.
By Jane on September 13, 2010
Perez had something on his site about Then and Now, so I thought I would dig up some old pictures from my less than stellar teenage years. Being a Gen Xer, it is definitely apparent I was a product of the 80s. Could my hair be any taller??? Oh and yes, that’s a perm I’m [...]

The Motor City, the border, kilometers versus miles…and finally, Toronto.
By Jane on July 7, 2010
We’re in the Motor City! Home of the Pistons! And my old place of employment, where I lived some 9 or 10 years ago, working for Ford Motor Company. This is a picture of one of Ford’s plants but I didn’t work here. I worked in the offices close to headquarters. After traveling around for a [...]

How to keep your mobile baby safe at the pool. Just plop him thru a lounge chair!
By Jane on April 24, 2012
The girls love to swim so when Prince Abubu said that his apartment had a pool, the girls were all about going. Since he lives not too far from Lucy’s, we decided to walk there. The pool is at the TOP of his building. With a great view of LA. I hate it when the [...]

Japanese Lunch Boxes: Presentation is key. Food Art for your tummy.
By Jane on October 23, 2010
My mom sends me tons of forwards….some get read, some don’t. This one was a cute one, full of pictures of Japanese lunch boxes. The Japanese are all about PRESENTATION and it shows! But, who has the kind of time to put something like this together! They’re like pieces of art. Food Art!

Sometimes you just get to feeling overworked and underpaid. You’re tired, you have too much to do, and you just want to go ON STRIKE. Only, you’re a mom and a wife and there is no supported workers union for such positions. You feel like your mate isn’t helping enough and, when you’re running around [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

Jane schools some boys in ping pong and gets a marriage proposal too.
By Jane on June 19, 2010
The other night, my cousins and I decide to go to the local sports bar since it was Ladies Night. You may or may not know that I love to shoot pool. It’s one of my favorite pastimes. I started playing in high school, used to skip class in college to go play (A couple [...]

Being the super-duper dad that he is, Dick went ice skating with Thelma yesterday. Thelma is LOVING ice skating and wants to go to every public session. Reminds me of my competitive roller skating days. Yes, there is such a thing as competitive roller skating. When I can find the pics, I will post. Any-hoo, [...]

Not exactly roughing it for a third world country.
By Jane on March 1, 2011
The last time I was in Vietnam was over ten years ago and alot has changed since then. What used to be rustic and poor-looking has turned into a metropolitan nouveau city with plenty of tourism. From the pictures of the hotels that my family stayed in, they weren’t exactly “roughing it” in any rustic-type [...]

What is this “Mom” businesses? I’m MOMMY!!!
By Jane on March 5, 2010
Eight seems to be the year that your kids start transitioning into a more grown up phase in their life. Thelma seems more mature and she even tells me all the time: “I really love being eight.” I can’t believe she’s eight already. Just a couple of weeks ago, my 8-year old started calling me [...]
