The First Christmas Party of the Season Is Tomorrow

I know Christmas is coming up fast. I also know I’m no where near being done my shopping LOL! I have some serious online shopping to do this weekend asap. And I don’t even want to think about all of the mall shopping I still have to do - ICK!
Still, I’m really […]

My Friend’s Cute, New Home

A friend of mine recently purchased a home on her own. It must have been a tough thing to do from so many angles (both financial and also just getting up the courage to be singularly responsible for the mortgage etc.).
Nevertheless, she did it, and she is sooo excited . Her home […]

How Much Do You Decorate For The Holidays?

I think we do a fair bit here. The kids just LOVE it so it’s nice to have the house all done up for them. Personally, the whole holiday is one I could do without. I’m happiest on January 2nd when I can go back to work and know that all the […]

It Really IS Expensive To Work!

Of course I got a job to make money and contribute to the family’s bottom line - like most everyone out there, I work for the money (and I like what I do).
What’s surprising though is how much it really does cost to work. Now throw in parking which looks like it […]

I Love My New Job!

Yes, I’m still going to do my online work with my websites, Adsense and Affiliate sites, but during the day I’ll be putting in 8 hours like I used to way back before I had kids
I’ve been off of work now for 8 years and my youngest is now in grade one so […]

Matt’s Spelling Tests

My son Matthew has never had problems getting A’s in school. I have a feeling though that this year will be different because, though he is technically in grade 3, he is in a classroom with grade 3 and grade 4. I have hunch that things are a tiny bit tougher because they […]

What Is Your Ideal Vacation?

My mom is itching to get away. Her husband is too actually, and they’re looking into Arctic cruises (brrrrr).
Apparently you can go and see the whales, who come very close to the ship, and the scenery is fabulous too! Personally, I’m more of a warm weather vacation girl. You can […]

Adopting Q & A

Most adults face the question from inquisitive relatives or friends regarding when, if ever, they intend to have children. Society expects that healthy adults propagate the species. It is Darwinism at its finest but some adults are faced with a conundrum when it comes to biologically reproducing a child from their own loins. For some […]

I’d Love To Retire And Winter In Florida

That’s the common thing here for retirees who can afford it; to spend their Winters in Florida. It’s so much warmer there than it is here. And of course, they have access to Naples plastic surgery in Florida too though I’m not sure too many snowbirds I know of take advantage of it […]

Do You Have Great Potty Training Stories To Tell?

I think it’s like childbirth. Those of us who have gone through it can tell some great and/or scary stories . Though both of my kids potty trained pretty easily and quickly (compared to stories I’ve heard from friends about their kids), I still had my share of “oh no!” […]
