I really have to thank Kelly for introducing me to Didn’t Have to Be by Brad Paisley. I don’t do C&W, so this one completely slipped past me. She kindly posted the lyrics for us to enjoy, and if you want to hear the song itself, hop on over to YouTube and watch the video […]
Will someone please explain to me why the people who have the least money, and who spend the largest percentage of their income, have to be the ones to spend MORE money to get this economy rolling again?
Think about it. Thanks, JP, for making me think about it again.
The government is giving us […]
I’ve mentioned Peter Ehrlich before. He very kindly sent me a link to his latest piece in The Star.
Peter’s mother was a single mother who did everything she could to make ends meet, including collecting bottles for the rebate. In today’s economy, I think we’re all going to find that a second and third stream […]
Declutter It has a great roundup of hints on how to declutter your home, your work, your mind. Hop on over there now and take a look. I’m in desperate need of some organizing tips because I think we’re going to move out of the house that’s trying to kill us… and if the deal […]
I really wish I had met this woman, as she sounds incredible. Perhaps her habit of playing MLK’s speeches to her son have something to do with his unconscious oratory style that is so much like the King’s.
MSNBC is carrying Janny Scott’s article on Obama’s mother from the New York Times, and it’s a […]
It’s all about the tribe, isn’t it?
My son has always been a part of a tribe, since he was born. It started out with the mamas and babies we met at the breastfeeding support group we attended every week, sitting in rockers with other new moms, weighing our babes, talking with the lactation consultant about […]
Look over there to your right… ———————->
well, actually… it’s a little further down. Nope. Wait a minute. It’s up there… Oh what the heck. See it? A POLL!
I’m being totally nosy, but don’t worry, I can’t see who answered what, so do the poll! There are several things that are going on right now […]
I give up. The only lesson today’s politics are teaching my son is that America is full of a bunch of racist, bigoted, crazy, selfish, narcissistic money-grubbers. OH MY GOD. Obama’s BLACK? Geraldine Ferraro just noticed that, it seems, and sees fit to accuse America of the biggest Affirmative Action campaign of the EEOC’s history. […]
Over at Career and Kids, Elizabeth is having a scheduling challenge the opposite of mine: she’s got a week filled with kids’ activities, while I’m up to my eyeballs in work. I need a kid-free week, but that’s just not possible. One deadline got pushed back because of a little thing called herding cats: trying […]
I’m reeling from the time change. Why, oh WHY do we have to do this? The Kid of course woke up in the middle of the night with some sort of leg spasm brought on, no doubt, from pounding around like a nut on the concrete sidewalks last night on our way home. He’s such […]
