So much for NaBloPoMo June. Looks like I missed a couple of days. Can I just say it was a long weekend, the week started off crummy and leave it at that? Thanks.
Today the weather finally changed and the humidity went off to bother somebody else. It’s going to be close to 50 degrees tonight. [...]

Right now I am collapsed in a heap on my sofa. It’s been a busy day, but wow… so much fun! After a quick trip to the Strip District for a few last minute items I was off to the Hebrew National Better-Than-A-Picnic picnic in Highland Park. We had great hotdogs (I mean really, really [...]

In an effort to clear the cobwebs around here, I’m going to sweep everything into a big ol’ pile (not a steaming one, but a pile nonetheless). Since last we chatted, on Eleanor’s birthday, life has been nothing short of insane. My calendar is a mass of entries and so many colors I can’t see straight.
Here [...]

I’ve been a bad little blogger. Not that I haven’t been thinking about it. This post has been rattling around in my brain for weeks. It started in late August when I knew the family was in for some schedule changes when Oliver started at his new school. I started trying to modify my sleep [...]

Long time. No blog. Anyway.
It’s hardly a newsflash but Sesame Street is on YouTube. This was handy with Oliver when he was younger, as in the days before iPhone. He would watch videos of Elmo singing with a wide variety of celebrities, from Andrea Bocelli to the Goo Goo Dolls. Oliver killed one screen on [...]

Since y’all so kindly helped me reach my goal for the March for Babies, and put the team in very good shape ($28 away from FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS! as of a couple of minutes ago), here are the updates I promised. Fasten your seat belts. It’s been a bumpy week.
On Monday Oliver came home with lots [...]

Welcome to year three of NaBloPoMo! As usual, I have no posts in the bank. And as usual, it’s late at night and I’m reaching. So far, so good!
Fortunately, we have a lot going on tomorrow and plenty of potential blog fodder. It should be enough to get me to Wednesday Bacon.
In the morning we’ve [...]

I’m supposed to be in bed by now. My grand plan involved, among other things, going to bed at 10pm so getting up at 6am would be less painful. Since it is nearly 11pm, you can see how the plan’s execution is coming along.
We have made a few strides towards preventing the family from spinning [...]

The reunion re-hash will have to wait another day. In spite of some stellar napping on Eleanor’s part (2+ hours this morning and 3 hours this afternoon), I didn’t get much done. Drop off at Oliver’s summer camp took a while, and I spent a bit of time on the phone tracking down some items [...]
