Mom raising three kids in 2009 and trying to pretend (to myself) that it's 1979. Wednesday, June 18, 2008. See You Next Week! Keith and I are off for some serious eating, sleeping and reading in Chicago. Thanks to his wonderful family, we are doing it kid-free. We have already mapped out our restaurant tour of the city, we plan to lay around in the park and read, take a tour of Hemingway's birth home and Frank Lloyd Wright's home and studio, see Indiana Jones and The Happening, hit a comedy club and SLEEP.

I'll Be Back Soon. Lucky for you I am bred to feel guilty. Let's just hope the blog is more interesting. In the meantime, look what I scored at my favorite thrift shop yesterday for $1.50. The original TOMY plates from the 70's in its original box. That's right. Be jealous. Or at least smile sympathetically at me.

About the donkey who helps Mary and Joseph get to the inn to have baby Jesus. I can't tell you about the craft because it's a surprise- you'll find out on Christmas day. There is also a video that tells this story- you can find it on many DVD compilations like Classic Cartoon Favorites, Vol. 9 - Classic Holiday Stories sold at Target or Amazon.com. Join t...

Mom raising three kids in 2009 and trying to pretend (to myself) that it's 1979. Friday, April 24, 2009. And if everyone wants to create a National holiday around the environment, that's fine - create awareness. Awareness good. Want to create festivals and rock concerts celebrating it? I feel like a crotchety old hippie shouting "Every day should be Earth Day! It is just so frustrating to be altering my own convenience when I don't feel like it:. Going out of my way to recycle EVERYTHING I possibly can.

Mom raising three kids in 2009 and trying to pretend (to myself) that it's 1979. Tuesday, April 29, 2008. Why My Mommy Dressed Me Up Like a Southern Frat Boy Going to a Mixer. The answer of course is.why not? Friends gave us this seersucker suit complete with hat and bow tie - yet it was about to be too small and the weather here has yet to produce a day where such an outfit would be necessary. And a Palmetto Pale Ale. Tuesday, April 22, 2008. The Simple Life.But With Lots Of Ibuprofen. But I've always r...

Before performance - trying out the twirly skirt. Sorry for the delay in posting - it has been pretty much a choice between blogging and sleep. And even with as little sleep as I've been getting, I've chosen sleep. Things seem to be crazy around here and probably is a whole post in itself - as is the wonderful trip to Philadelphia. And now Jackson has exp...

Mom raising three kids in 2009 and trying to pretend (to myself) that it's 1979. Thursday, February 28, 2008. So my kids have enjoyed every Disney movie known to man lately. And I even brought out Annie as an afternoon surprise one day which was going over very well until I realized just how much Miss Hannigan was drunk throughout the movie and Pepper, the orphan bully, showed L how to have a "knife fight" while dancing. Nice. Thursday, February 21, 2008. How many months until the Triathlon? I have no id...
