GO!!!!!!!!!
Man-cub starts the 9th grade next Wednesday. In Davis that means this is his last year of Junior High School. Our HS goes 10-12th grade, but his grades still count as if he were in HS. Complicated, I know.
My classes start Monday. This will be my third year of chipping away...

Yes, it's true. I have an Olympic size crush on Mr. Michael Phelps. Not in a slimy, "how you doing" kinda way. But more because I think he's grounded, humble, gracious and charming. And I (ahem) barely noticed his abs. But what I think is really endearing about Michael Phelps is...

For the past several months I have been on a roller coaster ride called “Trying to Buy a Short Sale”. ‘Short Sale’ is a terrible name for the kind of home buying this is. I know it refers to the price of the house vs. the amount owed on the house, but it...

Hi Moms. Hope you didn't already recycle the Sunday inserts. If you did, retrieve, retrieve! There are some great prices on back to school supplies at Longs, Walgreens and RiteAid. Here's the skinny:
Walgreens has dozens of 39-cent coupons. Everything from pencils and filler paper to...

It started out as any other first day of school... nothing much out of the ordinary... My 4th and 6th grader get up at 6:30am and do their morning routine as if on auto-pilot: eat breakfast, put on school uniforms, brush hair, brush teeth, make bed, make lunch, empty the...

It’s that time of year again. I can practically SMELL the pencils being sharpened and hear the moaning as I mention that this week is the last week of summer. Sadly, it’s the last week for us both (my classes start Monday, man-cub’s start Wednesday).

When we last left our heroine, she was coming down the home stretch of an action packed summer with the kids. She could see the finish line – the first day of school – in her sights. Could she come out the reigning champion of these summer games?
But she was faltering. The...

Is apparently fulfilled at Costco. Conspiracy theories abound.
We have a 5 yr old TV. TripletDad, like any typical adult male, has been wanting a flat screen. There was no way to justify it. We’re still growing our own business, we’re considering a move...The Costco...

Who knew that a black bean-sweet potato quesadilla with soy cheese in a brown rice tortilla would be so tasty. In trying to avoid wheat, eliminate dairy, and create new food choices for dinner, this was the evenings entree. After one bite, Lucas and Brodie didn't want anything to do...

I do a little drawing in the morning and organize the final pictures for the story I am finishing up. I'm doing a story about at lonely dolphin looking for some friends to play with. I am on, really, the last two pages of the story. I check my emails, send word about the...

Today I took the four kids to the California State Fair. My husband, Doug, flew to Las Vegas for the day to attend a research committee meeting. At 95 degrees here in Sacramento, it wasn't the most pleasant thing to do by myself, but I really wanted to surprise Greta, who's 3 years old, by taking...

"It looks like your baby has Down syndrome,” my OB/Gyn announced shortly after the birth of our fourth child, John Michael. Down syndrome? Are you sure? Two weeks later, the diagnosis was confirmed by a genetic test. He had an extra squiggle at the 21st chromosome. Trisomy 21.
