Did you know that 93% of all human communication is non-verbal? That means we read each other’s facial gestures, body language and scent. Just think of what that would mean if you lacked the ability to read non-verbal communication? Do you think that would affect your empathy level?...

Do you ever have the feeling that you get more support from strangers than your own family? Nothing made this hunch ring true for me more than when I had my son. No one in my family had ever breast fed, in fact, my proud proclamation of my intent on doing so wasn’t exactly met with the...

I think it's awesome that my company and job are encouraging me to get involved in social networking. Obviously, from my blogs here, you can tell I wear my life on my sleeve and don't have much of a filter when telling about my life. However - below are some concerns I have about...

I have a great tradition that I do every year. It started in the 3rd grade. It had been a long, hard year with a particularly “not-the-best” teacher. I had made many good friends at this point, other moms whose sons were in the same class as my son. We all decided that we deserved...

No, I didn’t suddenly adopt twin girls… I’m talking about my “crew” of girlfriends! When I first starting poking around SacMomsClub (two years ago now), I knew no one. I wasn’t really looking for any new friends either, just enjoying the site in general. I was...

I was having coffee with a girlfriend this morning (as us mothers of teenagers get to do now and then), when the topic of discipline and punishment came up. My friend is the mother of an 8yo girl who is in love with TV. The other day her daughter did something worth punishing and her...

Now, it's been awhile since I've received or given a gift that did cost a lot of money (or really anything over 20 bucks), so my perspective may be skewed. But as my 30th (ugh) birthday looms in the not-so-distant future, I am becoming more aware of the small, cost-free gifts we can give that can...

One of my goals for 2009 was to keep in closer touch with my friends. I was fortunate enough to make some really wonderful new friends in 08, and my older friends have yet to write me off due to neglect. Thanks to Facebook, I’ve even been reconnecting with some old-old friends. We’re...

As tempted as I was this morning to write (errr, vent) about the election and what pleased and displeased me this morning, I’m saving it for my personal blog.
When my son started Junior High School in Davis (two years ago now) I was pretty shocked to learn that they had a GSA club...

Ok, so Kaity turned 7 today, so since we had her this weekend, we did a sleepover. I've learned some difficult lessons from this experience.
1. Don't have them come over early afternoon if it will be a sleepover. Too much drama can happen before they go to bed the longer they are together.
2....

I do not mean this literally, of course. That would be icky. And time consuming. I'm not a multi-tasker.
I am referring to the fact that my husband's best friend, Jerome, is visiting from France this week. I have delayed posting on this because he defies description. I have been searching for...

When I was in high school, I had ISSUES. Most of these issues surrounded my desire to resist all authority figures and the persistence of the authority figures in my life to not give up on me. The one constant in my teenage experience, in addition to always being in trouble, was my love of...

PRELUDE ~ I’ve often wondered what it would be like to be my son for a day. To get inside his head and walk in his shoes. With that in mind, I asked my 14 ½ yo “Man Cub” to guest blog for me today. I hope you enjoy!

I had an interesting phone conversation last night with the vice principal at my son’s school. He’s had issues this year with some girls who he’s “friends” with not being so great to him and causing him problems, if not physical pain. Yes, my son has been...

I was checking out some of the new site features (like blog counters) when I noticed something. Today is my nine month anniversary of being on SacMomsClub! What a better way to celebrate then by meeting up with some of the wonderful women from the site.
Hmoeckli planned a great coffee...
