Every spring after the first rain, I scour my kitchen for the first sign of spring Ants. After many years of armies of Ants making their journey through my back door, last year, and this year so far, have been pretty calm. <fingers crossed> Two nights ago I saw a lonely Ant. I call himContinue reading “The Messenger”

End of Summer Blues
(Raise your hand if you are team Kohr Brothers) Where did the summer go? It’s gone but I honestly can’t remember what I did with half of it! Too fast. I’m sad. I may be in the minority here when I say that I am really sad to send my kids back to school. IContinue reading “End of Summer Blues”
My French Opportunity
When I was in first grade I went to a Private School where they taught us French. From that moment on, I always fantasized about a trip to Paris or being able to speak French fluently (I was always pretending that I could but all I could really say was “bonjour, call me Jeanette”). After first gradeContinue reading “My French Opportunity”
Holy Bad Day
Today, has been a hard day. Think, “if I wasn’t in a public place right now someone would be really hurt” kind of a day. Fo realz. Half serious. Thank goodness I was in public. It has been some time since I have had one of these. My blood pressure is still boiling. I can understand howContinue reading “Holy Bad Day”
My [Other] Boy
I’m sorry, I know I have not written a lot about our experience with Anton, our German Exchange Student. There have been a lot of things I would love to have written about but I want to be respectful of his privacy and because we are bound by a contract. And, I don’t want to sayContinue reading “My [Other] Boy”

New Blog Post. This Is Not About Family Events.
Hello my friends, hello my friends, helloooo, hell-ooooooo… You can sing that to the tune of “Sholom My Friends” if you remember from Middle School Chorus Class. It has been a while since I have written. Not for lack of motivation, more so lack of time. Well, Okay, and some motivation. It just seems thatContinue reading “New Blog Post.

Socially Unacceptable
We can all agree that there are just some things you should never do in public. We can also agree that there are things that you just DO NOT do in a working environment. You know, like blow bubbles with your gum in a cubical, cooking stinky food in the microwave, forgetting to courtesy flush…Continue reading “Socially Unacceptable”
The Life. The Kids. The Innaproprite. It’s Real Life.
“Today Lucy was looking through one of my Art books from college. She asked me, “why does this guy have a Penis?” “Umm, because he’s a boy?” Not quite sure how to explain that. My Father gave Abram a stuffed frog one day as a gift. He was trying to tell Ryan that Pop-Pop gaveContinue reading “The Life. The Kids. The Innaproprite. It’s Real Life.”
