Driving in this city SUCKS!
IÂ was once again reminded today of why I HATE driving downtown! 2 reasons: The pedestrians in this city have no idea what the rules of the road are. I mean, did someone not teach them, or do they just not care? Where in the traffic rules/laws does it say to cross in the crosswalk againt [...]
I could get used to this!
I just can not get over how quiet it is in the house while the boys are in school. There is no fighting over toys, yelling, running around, wrestling, etc. The house stays clean, at least until the twins get home. I get more done during the day than I have in the 3 1/2 yrs [...]
First day of school!
I sent my babies off to their first day of school today. It was hard, but not as hard as I thought it would be. They acted like it was old hat…like they’d done it before. That made it easier, I think. But, I didn’t expect anything less of them. They’ve never been the clingy [...]
Taking a page out of dh’s book
DH has a new blog (yes, another one) that he has decided to use as a work-out/exercise blog. So, like him, although not in a new blog, I will be joining in on the exercise thing. I was really good for 6 months, and then took a hiatus over the summer after all of my [...]

Back-to-school shopping complete!
We bought the boys their back packs tonight, so they are all set for school Monday. We even bought Alex one. He put a little one on and looked so stinking cute in it, we couldn’t resist! He won’t need one for preschool, but we’ll find a way for him to use it. Ryan, however, [...]
A pregnant man?
This is utterly fascinating to me as a mom of twins. I have never heard of this before, but it honestly sounds oddly interesting, yet grotesque! A Pregnant Man? Another Person Lived Inside a Man for Nearly Four Decades Aug. 23, 2006 — Sanju Bhagat’s stomach was once so swollen he looked nine months pregnant [...]
I have been interesting blog fodder
It appears I have been interesting blog fodder for some of the bloggers on Erie Blogs. Neither of them referred to me by name, but it’s blatantly obvious that it’s me they are talking about. That’s one of my pet peeves…people who have no problem slamming you behind your back but don’t have the guts [...]
Plan B get’s OK for non-prescription sales
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14497678/?GT1=8404 A travesty! Now women and men age 18 and older can get Plan B, the emergency contraceptive pill, without a prescription. I am rather dissappointed that the FDA reversed it’s own ruling to allow this, even with the age restriction. I have an idea…why don’t we promote abstinence rather than giving teens more tools to [...]
Pluto has been demoted
I have not see this on the news anywhere, and only ran across it due to a SAHM friend posting it on our board. I am amazed that after all these years they would tell us what we thought was a planet is not a planet after all. I’m 26 and remember being taught about [...]
