Bet you think this is going to be about one of my kids, don’t ya? Well, the truth is, they’re all good. Unless you count yesterday, when #2 and #3 were acting up… but it was another snow day, so I think they had cabin fever. And luckily for me, my friend and neighbor called […]
One of the strangest trends in movies for the past several years has been to turn television shows of days gone by into big screen extravaganzas. For the most part, I do not see them as being over successful. Probably, the most profitable venture into this phenomenon has been the Star Trek series. This is
Ok, I’m exaggerating just a tad on the number of snow days we’ve had, but that’s what it feels like by now! I suppose with the new dog in the house, today was as good a day as any to have yet another snow day, but my poor husband is going to go crazy from

Subbing has traditionally been a waiting game, waiting for that call to come inviting you to take over someone’s classroom for a day or sometimes more. There is one district that for some reason last fall seems to have just stopped calling me altogether. Actually, that is not strictly true- the sub for the sub
The other was a bit too, um, lavender-y for my taste. The title is a bit minimalistic but I’ll try it out for a bit. I also didn’t like the comments line being by the post title and therefore harder to see. Now it is quite obvious at the bottom when there are no comments
Today when I was putting away laundry, it occurred to me that it’s almost that time of year when I need to pack away winter clothes and see if I have enough spring / summer clothes for the kids in the right sizes. And, since I’m going to have another little bundle of joy, I
