Feast Yer Eyes! #BraveCarsLandEvent

One of our favorite family pastimes is movies. Watching ‘em at home. Road tripping to a movie. Even getting an invite to one of those oh-so-fun-I-saw-it-first screenings. Heck, I’d even watch a movie on our rickety car DVD with the family. With a busy mom and dad, and three kids in a myriad of activ

Where Was I? Where Will I Be? #SheCon12

I’ve been a little quiet lately. Not quiet on Facebook. No, I’m never quiet on Facebook. Quite the contrary. I’m kind of a talking machine on Facebook. Online friends “get” that talking on Facebook seemingly all day is what I do for a living. Offline friends fall in to two camps. One group probably

Spring Clean Everything…Even Carpets? [Giveaway]

There’s that moment. You know the one. The moment when you walk in to a room, look at the carpet, go eewww! I’m sure you have experienced this. In my house, I have this experience every day. You wouldn’t think that 5 people who never wear shoes in the house could cause so much wear and tear to a car

It’s Never Too Early to Talk About Saving

You know a broken record. The way it plays over and over again. And you kind of want to throw it against a wall. Wait. You do know what a record is, don’t you? Please, don’t make me link to Wikipedia! So, the sound of a broken record is not unlike the voice of one of my children asking for candy whi

A Mother’s Day Gallery for Every Day

I like to think of myself as a rock. Steady. Not prone to bursts of emotion. The one with the clear head who rises above it all. The truth is that I am cool under pressure. I can be relied upon to get it done in a crisis situation. But, show me a Hallmark commercial and I melt. So my toughish exteri

Damages DVD: The Complete Third Season [Giveaway]

A few months ago, I received a mystery package. The package was actually two envelopes stuffed in to one large padded envelope. The contents were shiny and new. The envelopes bulky. I know I never requested them. But, I am not one to look a gift horse in the mouth. I don’t know who the package was f

Children Need Choices, Especially with Clothes

For as long as I can remember one of my children has had opinions. I can remember as an infant that this child would not take a pacifier. She would take a bottle, but only when the bottle was offered to her a third time. That’s right, she wouldn’t take a bottle the first or second time offered, but

Summer Is Finally Here!

Summer is nearly here. I can almost taste it. This year of pickups and drop offs and homework and projects and band concerts and sports practices and games is drawing to a close. It wasn’t that long ago the school bus picked up the kids for the first day of school. But, summer will start in a few sh
