Ok, so I don’t necessarily look like a mechanic’s assistant in this pic. This was taken after all the hard mechanic work when we went to the pool to cool off. More on that later. We just got another car to sell, a Lexus ES300. It’s been well-kept and is beautiful but needs new [...]

Dick: How to diffuse an angry woman.
By Jane on April 22, 2010
So, to pick up where we left off…I had written a note for Dick. However, I didn’t give it to him. I knew I wrote it out of PASSION and ANGER and didn’t want things to get worse. So, I crawled in bed after writing my RANT. After Dick and the kids came home, I [...]

Thanksgiving dinner. Gobble gobble!
By Jane on November 27, 2011
Every year, my dad is the one that makes our turkey for Thanksgiving. He is, afterall, THE CHEF in our house. This year, Louise was craving the potato dish that Lucy made last year, Cornflake potato casserole…kind of like Au Gratin. Except, this year, she used a different recipe. AND, because she left the cheese [...]

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 [...]

By Jane on August 11, 2010
With us traveling and Thelma’s burn, the girls didn’t have an opportunity to participate in any meets. So, when it came down to very last swim meet, Coach decided to let the girls at least experience ONE FINAL meet. PRACTICE There is swim practice daily and the coaches prep the kids for the final meet. [...]

My dear sister, Lucy Lu, introduces me to OXYCLEAN and so I use to to get the TEA STAINS off my glasses. Another reason why I love Oxyclean? This is my kitchen hood vent, which was WAY OVERDUE for a replacement. However, given it’s unique, custom size, I’m too lazy to go look for one. [...]

One of the walls of the girls room is completely blank and I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do to it. I thought maybe I would do four boxes of blue like from the brochure. Not FEELIN’ it. Plus, that would require lots of taping and I’m not up for it. [...]

Birthday anticipation started months and months ago but just kicked into high gear.
By Jane on December 1, 2009
The girls always talk about what they will do for their birthdays sometimes almost 6 months in advance but when it gets down to the last 2 months, the anticipation is high. They start asking how many days until their birthday and planning every detail of it. This year…I want a pinata. This year…I’m inviting [...]

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 [...]

Boursin Cheese and Mamma Mia starts off 2010 for us.
By Jane on January 1, 2010
It’s about 10:30 when we’re done eating our yummy sushi at Katsuya so we head to Lucy’s house to chill. We’re watching the countdown on CNN but I think it’s a replay of the dropping of the ball in NY’s Time Square. Whatever, it’s still almost midnight for us so we use it as our own West Coast [...]

Convertibles: Love them or not?
By Jane on September 21, 2010
Since it was summer, we had been looking for a convertible for the girls to enjoy. We found one and the kids (including the big one that is my husband) LOVE it! They love it so much they don’t want to sell it. It’s like a roller coaster ride for them. I’m not sure what [...]

Thelma found a branch the other day. She liked it so much, she wanted to take it home. I didn’t realize she had a plan for it.

DICK: Daddy Day at Ballet, Tutus and all.
By Jane on January 19, 2010
The girls have been taking ballet since they were 5, taking off a year here or there. Louise was excited to start ballet again but since Thelma was crazy about ice skating, she wasn’t feelin’ ballet as much and decided not to take lessons this year. And ever Louise started up again this last fall, [...]

Dick braves riding the Greyhound. We need high speed rails in the US people!
By Jane on October 15, 2009
Dick has to go to Gotham City to pick up another car. He decides at the last minute to do this and so airfare is ridiculous. With no other options, he decides to brave the Greyhound. I am fearful because just last year, I read this horrible story about an innocent bus-riding young man who gets [...]
Individual Mommy Time with Thelma.
By Jane on January 22, 2010
Dick and I like to give the girls some one-on-one time and so we’ll split up, each of us taking one of the girls. They like to have that individual attention from us. Of course, I am the photographer and so I have pictures of my time with the girls.

Procrastinator turned Multitasker. Carpe Diem!
By Jane on November 10, 2009
The other day I was swamped with work to do because I had procrastinated for far too long on things that must be done. Procrastination was now biting me in the ass because I was missing out on one of the most beautiful days of Fall being that it was warm, sunny and mid-60s. While [...]

Thelma wants to revert back to the MOHAWK DAYS.
By Jane on March 16, 2010
Thelma has been begging me to cut her hair again…She’s missing her mo-hawk days. This was two years ago. Girlfriend is SUPER-FIERCE with her HAWK. I wish I could rock a HAWK but this Jane’s head is too big for that. Dick would agree, I’m sure. However, it’s still too cold now and I want [...]

Introducing color #3: I stray from the brochure and go HOT.
By Jane on March 8, 2010
After painting first two colors (Hep Green and Reflecting Pool), I notice that the colors on my walls are turning out darker than the ones in the brochure. However, I’m still DETERMINED to pull this room together and make it FABULOUS for my girls. The girl’s room is low lit so that’s why the colors [...]
