My 14th wedding anniversary is right around the corner (October 1st), and I decided what I wanted most was to look sexy that day. You know, like I just stepped out of Sex in the City. All beautiful, confident and put together. We all know that when you look sexy and feel sexy then you ARE sexy. I...

No, not the diapers! Fall is in the air. The mornings have been wonderfully crisp, my lawn has a thin coating of fallen leaves (not quite as beautiful as the ones in this pictures, but still…) and the stores are filling with Fall and Halloween delights. This is hands-down my favorite time...

So I must confess that gong to Costco isn’t just a shopping trip for me, it’s an event. It’s my PILs fault. They bought us our first membership years ago. At first I only went a occasionally and for Christmas shopping. Then I started going about every...

I am not a shopper. I hate it. I do as much as possible online. In fact, I can guarantee that the Internet has improved my quality of life. Or, at least, my husband's.
So this weekend we have one objective: buy a used car. I am less than thrilled.
First of all, we are buying this used car...

I have an issue I struggle with. Consumerism. On one hand I believe in reduce, re-use and recycle. I buy second hand, sales and take hand-me-downs from my aunt. I watch my budget closely and can pinch a penny well. Then something happens, I transmorph into a materialistic superficial elitist. I...

My husband’s last day at his old job was on Tuesday. He doesn’t start his new job till next Thursday. That means I’ve had my man around the house this week. Starting a new job myself, I wasn’t sure if this would be a good thing or extra work for me. Let’s face it, as...

Hi Moms. It was great to meet members of the advisory board today. I hope you will all find a few minutes to email me so that we can set up our "Bee" network.
In shopping news this week, there are lots of healthful items on sale. Fruit tops the list with good prices on...

Did you see all the inserts in Sunday's paper? Believe it or not, it's back to school time. This is a biggie for me because it's the first time in 18 years that both my boys aren't heading back to school. No matter if they are 5 or 15, back to school has been part of our lives since 1990. In...

It's Wednesday again and that means grocery store sales arrive at the doorstep. I'm going to help you sort out the good from the "don't need it." There's lots of fruit and veggies that even kids will like. Blueberries at Safeway for $3.59; and baby carrots in the bag for $1 at...

In 2007 I met a wonderful fellow mother, Melody (also on this site), whose son happens to suffer from Type 1 Diabetes. Since then I’ve learned a lot about juvenile diabetes and am happy to do what I can to help her son and others like him when I can.
Every year the JDRF...

Once a year my grandparents make the nail biting trip down from Brookings Oregon to Sacramento to visit the family for a week. This isn’t the cute, pretty, foresty part of Oregon. This is the part of Oregon that’s so far away it butts up to the North Pole. It’s a three day drive...

So today my husband left early again, this time to go camping with a bunch of Boy Scouts. He's excited, but it's not exactly my cup of tea. I like camping and all, but I have a hard enough time keeping myself fed, warm, and out of harm's way. I feel no need to add 10 pre-teens into the mix.

With "new" Girls.
After reviewing my vacation pictures, I was pretty shocked at how, um… succumbing to gravity a particular part of my body looked. I didn’t think my bras were that bad! I mean, they’re under wire and everything! Apparently, being a 44DD means that I...
