Tomorrow I take my soon-to-be kindergartner to Wal-Mart to make those cherished purchases that are only known as school supplies. I am more excited than her apparently because I can’t wait to SMELL everything in the store. The smell of these items brings back every first day of school memory I’ve ever had.  You all know [...]

Unlike a “real life” choreographer, where you skip-ball-change your instructions in person to eager dancers, I am what I like to call a ‘visual choreographer’.  Call it a gift if you will, but I have the ability to choreograph anything……in my head. Yes folks that’s right. If they ever find a way to put a little [...]

I’ve been fine this year – really. Even when her little pre-k class had their ‘graduation’ ceremony and she got a little diploma.

Apparently now that I’ve had two kids, and somehow my hormones have radically changed for the worse from here on in – a little part of my brain has gone to the dark side.  PMS you say? No. This is a permanent change in my psyche and it likes to show it’s newly found power at the [...]

Down there are bags full of old toys, musty smelling stuffed [...]

So apparantly when you have your second child, everything becomes a bit less intese. That’s good in some ways, but bad in others. Will my son ever realize that instead of perusing the internet for literally days on end to find the most perfect floral patterned bedding set complete with matching curtains, room border, lamp, rug [...]

Tomorrow we embark on the great adventure known as “The 5 year old birthday party.”  It’s my daughter’s “friend” party, being held at a gymnastics place that also has a playground, party room and apprantly – is way better than the patchy grass & dirt lawn that the “family” party was held at last weekend.  [...]

I’ve been interviewing folks for two positions we have right now and would like to give a few words of advice to those eager candidates seeking a permanant paycheck: 1.  Do not show up without a nice copy of your resume along with a printed list of your references – we always ask for them [...]

Up to today I really believed that the true beauty of a person comes from a blend of things – it’s not just what’s on the inside because that totally leaves out any points for good grooming, but it’s a combination of wit, smarts, common sense, truthfulness, and of course, good grooming, that make a [...]
