I know, your jealous that you didn’t get the memo on this one. 3:30am is the new 6:30am. You may be asking; “What do you mean?” Well, since we have returned from our lovely family sojourn to Germany, the girls have not really returned to “normal” sleeping habits. At least normal as I hope it [...]

You may have heard about the Maine school providing birth control to middle school children? Whether you agree or disagree, I really don’t want to get into a debate here. This is not the right forum. Besides, I think Christine over at the Bean Blog has summed it better than I could in her post [...]

There are subways and trains and buses and taxis to every destination you can think of. And when you do want to drive, [...]

First of all, thank you to everyone who commented and emailed me with their kind thoughts. I really appreciate it. This month will go down in my personal history as the worst month ever. Of course you know, my Dad died. Well two days later, my Grandmother died. Also, my long time neighbor and all [...]

Today we lost our father. He was our Dad. He died way too young and we regret that he did not get to enjoy his retirement or his grandchildren nearly enough. We know he had another 20+ good years in him. This is cancer and this is life. Dad, we are really going to miss [...]
