Like everyone else in Metropolis, I was out getting groceries in anticipation of the “WINTER STORM” coming our way. Dick was driving back from Gotham City and although I was somewhat worried he would get caught in the storm, the snow had just started. He suggested I hit the Blockbuster and get us some movies.

By Jane on July 28, 2011

Oh the disappointment!!! Of course, when shopping for watermelons, I always do that thumping thing that I see everyone else do…but seriously, I [...]

Middle man down! Injury on the job by a machete-potato peeler.
By Jane on October 7, 2009

By Jane on October 4, 2009

By Jane on May 7, 2012
Now that’s two words you’d never think you’d say in the same sentence. Country boy and Benz. Oh wait, that’s three words. I meant to say two things. Some pictures that I took of my “country boy” outside of where we meet for our homeschool co-op. Benz has super sharp eyes that can detect the [...]

We’re eating Vegan at Vegan Glory
By Jane on January 3, 2010
I am by no means a vegetarian or vegan but I do try to eat less meat. The other day, I went with Lucy, Ricky and Thelma to Vegan Glory, a fantastic vegan restaurant that uses Soy to make imitation chicken, beef, and shrimp. It was extremely tasty and I quite enjoyed it.

Your Daily Osho: An Echoing Place. That’s Karma baby!!
By Jane on January 30, 2011
I’ve always believed in Karma…whatever you put out there, it’s going to come right back at cha like a boomerang.

Whatever energy you put out in the universe, the universe will echo it right back at [...]

Last day with cousins. Boo-hoo.
By Jane on June 7, 2010
It’s the last day with J Lo, Will and Carlton and we have had such a great time with them here. It’s always hard when people visit me and then they leave. You get used to having them around and it’s always supersad to see them go.
