I took a walk down to the boardwalk with some new friends in Santa Monica this weekend. My purse had recently been flooded by an unexpectedly-open bottle of Diet Coke, and so I was traveling lighter than usual. My camera was around my neck and my phone was in my pocket. That’s it. But I…

February 29 doesn’t come around all that often, so a few of my blogging friends and I decided to do something a little out of the ordinary today. We’re all answering 10 questions about ourselves (thank you, Jessica!) and then hopping around to learn a little more about each other. Want to join in? 10…
Top 10 Reasons I Want Dish Network
We haven’t had TV for years. We do have a television set. We just can’t watch anything on it except for DVDs and videos. Yes, we still have a VHS player hooked up to our TV. Some say we are living in the stone ages. (By the way, my TV is more modern than the…
Japan Quake Relief
When I was 13, I was sitting at home watching TV when the earth started to shake. Growing up in California, I had experienced plenty of earthquakes, but it didn’t take very long to realize that THIS one was different. It sounded like a train was coming through our living room. The solid marble entry…
Redbox “Lucky to Have Friends Like You”
I love watching movies at home. I put on a pair of comfy pants, sit down with my laundry and a bottle of water, and relax. I love the convenience (and the price!!) of redbox dvd rentals. What could be better than $1 movies? Free movies, of course! Now through St Patrick’s Day (March 17,…
Mug Shots
I was reading Mom Spark the other day and came across a fun post: Coffee Mugs that Tell a Story. After reading Amy’s post, I walked to my kitchen, found my 6 favorite mugs, set them out on the kitchen table, and started taking pictures with my new iPhone. My kids apparently thought I had…
Walgreens Way to Well Fund™
This is a compensated post written by me on behalf of Walgreens. All opinions are 100% mine. The weather here in Maryland has been fluctuating between Spring-like sunny and late-Winter chilly. My kids and I have been enjoying those days of warmth and sun, and have spent many afternoons at the park (those March days…
Some People Should Not Wear Skinny Jeans
And I am one of those people. I heard from a friend the other night that Target had a bunch of jeans on sale for $5. FIVE dollars for new jeans?? I’m in! I needed a few things at the store the other day, so I figured I’d kill two birds with one stone and…
Boy Talk
Last night after dinner, Twizzler (my 10 year old son) and I headed to my best friend’s house. Tonight is the annual Cub Scout Pinewood Derby and the poor kid didn’t have a car yet. The block of wood has been sitting on a shelf in our family room for weeks. Parent fail. Knowing that…
A Case of Mistaken Identity
My kids love to check out books about dogs from the school library. Just the other day, Reese brought home an encyclopedia-sized Dog Breeding book, and while it was here, the kids couldn’t get enough of it. Reese even agreed to play with my hair (the ultimate mom-pampering time) if I would read her a…
