Why do I do it? Why do I allow myself to get sucked into conversations about homeschooling with folks who either A: want to argue or B: are arm-chair quarterbacking the issues? Why do I read someone say “for the sake of the children and society in general, there should be some accountability of parent/teachers” [...]

Happenings…

Well, it’s been a week of bloggity-hopping and very little blog writing. Can you believe there were almost 2000 partiers during the ultimate blog party? That just amazes me! This internet just makes the world so small when you can party with folks in England, Ireland and New Zealand without even leaving the comfort of [...]
Yoga… the Sneaky Exercise

Went for the third time to yoga last night. If you’ve never tried this exercise, here are some key points to remember:

Every little once in a while the questions for the feast aren’t that palatable, so I go for something else. Here’s my something else this week:

That’s what M says when it starts snowing and she can wrap her hot little hand around a couple of already melted snowflakes. She even throws the snow water at you and has a hoot doing it.

It’s that time again! Time for women everywhere to go cyber-partying with Five Minutes For Mom! If you didn’t get to join in the fun last year, you are in for a treat. It’s a lot of fun to take a week to go peruse other party sites you might not normally see. AND the [...]
Dogs, Cows and Fish (Oh My!)

Today was my second yoga class and I liked it a lot more than the first. After the first class I was left thinking “I can do this in everyday activities”. Today I have a much better appreciation for the art?… sport?… hobby?… exercise (I guess). It was a ton more strenuous than I even [...]

As some of you may know, I had a birthday in December. No problem… I’m really not a birthday-phobe. What I have a love/hate relationship with is the DMV. More specifically, that nasty little inmate photo they make you stand for to renew your driver’s license. Five years ago was pre-Atkins, pre-M for me… so [...]
