UGH! One of the things I liked about the apartment we moved into last year was that it was surrounded by a lot of wooded lots. I missed having my own front and back porch, but at least I could look out and see trees and birds and a little stream….Well the woods across the street from is being torn down! It use to look so pretty back there, and we ( Read more... )

UGH! Last 3 weeks of college. Well at least for this term, I still have several more years to go. I tell myself I really should take summer classes so I can get out quicker--but by the end of the spring semester I'm so burnt out that the thought of going back to college with only a 2 or 3 week break makes me cringe.

And my son has chosen Joshua Chamberlain!(Col. of the 20th Maine) But how the heck am I going to make/buy a union officer costume for a kid?
The report is due February 8. Anyone has any

Several months ago my children’s school changed our neighborhood bus pick up time. Their original bus stop time was 7:15 am-well back in October the school changed it to 6:20am! There was no way I was going to put my kids on the bus nearly an hour early-esp. since we only live 4 miles away from the school! So since then I’ve been taking my kids to ( Read more... )
