$100 Smackeroos!
What would I do with an extra $100 if someone handed it to you next month? I would spend the money on my family. Perhaps a dinner out or a movie or something that we could all enjoy together. I should probably spend the 100 buckeroos on myself. Oh, I could get a... »
Worrywart, Yep That’s Me.
I’m a worrier. There I said it. I worry from the moment I wake up until I go to bed. I probably worried when I was a baby…about what I don’t remember, but I am sure I worried! In no particular order my top worrying moments: I worry about the kids when they are home... »
Giveaway: Thanks to My Readers!
I am a lucky blogger. An incredibly fortunate person, seriously. This has been a wild year. A bumpy ride, but in a good way. Oh and I discovered my voice in writing — amazingly gratifying for me. As a former editor, I would critique other’s writing, but never felt confident enough to take a professional... »
Must See Attractions in DC with Preteens and Teens
When the children were young a trip to D.C. was a no-brainer. The zoo or the Museum of Natural History were our top picks. When my son was born we widened our net to include sights that every person living near D.C. or traveling to D.C. should visit. Once our oldest child was around 9 we started... »

He doesn’t ask why none of the boxes contain a paycheck. He helps my #notechie self create business cards. On his day off, he made breakfast, played... »

Catholic School Education
When I think of Catholic school, the following images from my childhood come to mind: school uniforms from Henry Barrie in Manchester’s St. Anne’s Square getting slapped on the back of the legs by Mrs. McDonald in 4th grade (or Transition 3 in English speak) for talking while lining up after playtime inedible school lunches…liver and onions…rock... »
And We’re Back!
Leaving OC after a packed day of donuts for breakfast, Safari minigolf, ice cream for lunch, the outlets, and pizza for dinner is a recipe for exhaustion. Rising at 7:30 a.m. for the Friday swim meet was just plain torture after getting to bed at 10 p.m. Scenes from the day… What is a beach trip... »
