My daughter has been functioning without a desk at home. She really needs a space to do her homework. Not that she wants anything that looks like school furniture, but a nice corner desk for her room would be nice. So, we are taking a trip to the local IKEA to see what we can [...]

I am always amazed at how quickly my children are growing up! My oldest daughter just turned 16 and it is not just her age that happened so fast, she also grew very tall. Of course, this has caused her some joint pain, especially around the knees and back and it only makes matters worse [...]

So after scrubbing my ceramic tiles in the kitchen today, I had to cancel my son’s birthday party anyway. There is supposed to be a snow storm headed our way and I had to make the decision to cancel before I get stuck with food that won’t be eaten. Hopefully, next weekend will be good. [...]

I was hoping to see Finian’s Rainbow on Broadway this year and was disappointed to find out that the play is closing on Sunday! I quickly hopped on the internet and was able to obtain two tickets for Saturday evening for myself and my ten year old daughter. I think she will thoroughly enjoy it! [...]

Yesterday was our first day of school. My children seem to be pleased with their new teachers, but my high schooler is a little worried that this year is going to be tough. My daughter insisted on making a funny face. This is her last year at the elementary school and she is excited to [...]

Ten year old girls have very loud voices! We just had a gaggle of them over for a sleep over for my daughter’s 10th birthday. The plan was for them to sleep outside in a tent. I knew I should have installed video surveillance equipment before the sleepover, because the girls were all concerned that [...]

Fortunately, children forgive all your faults. While I am thinking about how I hate having my picture taken and I need to figure out a fast weight loss program, my son, on the other hand, loves to sneak the camera and take lots of closeup pictures of himself, me, and various other things which I [...]
