    I decided to check out my Facebook page and noticed that my niece had some new photos posted. I looked and low and behold, the moldy bread we found in my fridge yesterday was there. This loaf was dated to be eaten before June 23. See what happens whe...

  • I Love Christmas … But November 10th?

    Posted on Thursday November 12th, 2009 at 06:40 in family, christmas, pet peeves, life observations, thankgiving

    Even my kids, who LOVE Christmas, agree that is a bit much. We were riding home from Christmas shopping and saw through a window, a Christmas tree up and decorated on November 10. Sorry but that is crazy, and that is coming form someone who loves the...

  • What Have I told You About Backup and Restore?

    Posted on Thursday November 5th, 2009 at 07:15 in computer, kids, crash, pet peeves, restore

    I was sent on a mission.  My daughter’s computer died and I was to get the system restore disks to her. Following the directions to find them in her things was like being on a Lewis and Clark expedition, but I found the box in her closet. No ...

    I haven’t decided. Just like I haven’t decided if I am going to give up my high fat Greek yogurt or not. My daughter and I have a competition to each lose 10 lbs. before Dec. 16. She would then be at her goal weight and I would be, let&#...

    Posted on Wednesday October 28th, 2009 at 07:45 in kids

    Sometimes you just can’t make these things up. Like this story in last night’s paper where a man in a cow costume drove nto the river (after some partying). I had to laugh several times as it was just a comedy of errors complete with th...

  • Two Oldies But Goodies

    Posted on Sunday October 25th, 2009 at 17:31 in movies, life observations, coincidence, old friend, twelve angry men

    Finally watched the Netflix movie that’s been cluttering up my counter top for the past three weeks, Twelve Angry Men. I can tell it’s a good movie when we don’t fall asleep after the first ten minutes. So far, the oldies have been...

Your son's Easter story is so beautiful. Many people think that children and teens are forced by over zealous parents to do these things. Unless one has seen or felt the touch of the love of God, it is hard to understand the transformation from selfish love to selfless love. Thank You for sharing, you are richly blessed

I cannot believe how many of your stories are our stories! So mush so that if I wrote all of our stories, you would think I stole yours!! I think Gramma might possibly be our Grandma living a secret life with someone else's family!!!

Awesome blog. Extremely well written and nicely laid out, with just the right amount of wit tossed in. While my kids are a bit younger than yours, I can still relate (and hopefully prepare myself a bit) to your anecdotes.

Lovely blog, can't stop admiring your sense of humour and the commitment with which you have been going about it. I think I can learn a lot from you, and so does everyone who calls himself a serious blogger. Keep it up and have fun.

Great blog. I'm going to link you to mine so all the mommies who visit me might get a chance to share in a good laugh. I tried to leave a comment on your easter egg hunt post. I registered and all but the comment didn't show after I posted it. I didn't want to double post, so I hope it goes through, maybe you check them before allowing them to show or something? Anyway, I noticed that you had the number of posts vs comments on there. And did you realize that when a person registers (which they have to in order to comment) they can also post on your blog, at least thats what it looked like. I'm still fairly new to all this. Anyway, long story short, I liked your blog, tried to comment, hope it worked. :)
