Day #17 – Fashion Advice for Moms Today is Saturday. I’m going to make this short and sweet. What’s one thing you probably don’t pamper yourself with enough? SOCKS! I was at Marshall’s this afternoon… they were having a HUGE shoe sale. HUGE! There were tons of women there. And the funny thing is… we [...]
Alone…
I am sitting in my kitchen, typing on my laptop. The sun is casting beautiful shadows on my deck, and the still of the morning is wondrous. The icy snow is still. The trees are still. The blue sky is interrupted only by a lone bird here and there. I am alone in my home. [...]

Even I’m not craving ICE CREAM! Believe me… it MUST BE COLD. Day #16 – Fashion Advice for Moms… Skirts. Sometimes we run away from them. But really, we all should have one. Or two. Or three. There’s always the question — what is the most flattering type of skirt to own? Now… coming from [...]
A winter afternoon in New England
A winter afternoon. Grandkids. A hill. Sleds. Happy people… Can you say… a Norman Rockwell masterpiece of a day!

My niece turned 8 years old yesterday. 8 years old. I remember January 14th, 2001 like it was yesterday. I was living in New York City at that time, and my mother called me to tell me that Nicole (my sister-in-law) was in labor. I called (my-then-fiance) Matt and told him that I really wanted [...]
An unexpected houseguest
The other night, as Seth slept soundly snored loudly on his dog bed in the family room, and Ryder snuggled next to me on the couch, I got up and went to the kitchen to make myself some dinner. As I washed my hands in the sink, I looked outside the window to our backyard [...]
Happy Birthday, Taylor
8 years ago this morning, our beautiful granddaughter, Taylor Jane, came into our world. She is our first grandchild, and our world was forever changed on that day. We had known about this little miracle since the previous April… and I remember thinking then, “We must wait all the way ’til January!” But wait we [...]

Since having Henry this past June, I have tried really hard to lose the baby weight. I launched Tweightloss in July to get me jump started. I started running at the YMCA. Then bought a treadmill to be able to run at home. And then even started running on the street. I got myself back [...]

I was away from home for 2 1/2 days. That’s about 60 or so hours. My husband was left in charge of the boys. All 4 of them. I wasn’t worried about him actually taking care of the kids. He has that covered… I was more or less afraid to open the door and see [...]
Security Blanket
Sunday was a fabulously fun day for Barry and me. It began with a 2-minute trek to our local recreation area… with William and Alexander and 2 snow gliders and a sledding tube. Our town “rec” area has, among other wonderful things, a couple of hills just the right size for sledding with 3 and [...]
