How to Tell Someone is Unemployed
April 10, 2010
This is as old as the days of William Tell…. so the kid can flip business cards around, big whoop. Actually, he’s pretty good. But I loathe to think of all the wasted hours spent learning how to extinguish a candle or pop a balloon or knock a cup off a person’s head with a [...]

March 24, 2010
…And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, some to shame and contempt. Those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the firmament, and those who turn many to righteousness like the stars forever and ever. But you, Daniel, shut up the words [...]
Ode to Joy on Wine Glasses
January 12, 2010
At the risk of giving my precocious children MORE ideas (they create sounds on my wine glasses when it’s their turn to wash the dishes), I am posting this amazing video of a guy playing Ode to Joy with wine glasses full of water! He is super good! It’s a shame the video was cut [...]

Red Chair Confessions… Clueless!
September 3, 2009
Have you heard of the Red Chair Confessions videos? The folks at the Red Chair Confessions asked me to watch the video and give my opinion. Ummm. I have something to confess (hey, I have a red chair, too! I should sit in it!): I have no idea what the lady is leading up to. [...]
Kids: No Brainers. Literally. Yeah.
August 31, 2009
OH MY GOSH! Here’s a video by the guy who does Simon’s Cat (Simon Tofield). He has this amazing way of depicting the real life and, uh, idiosyncrasies of cats and kids in his new Kids aren’t that smart – Cats videos. You tell me that you DON’T know a kid like this, and I’ll [...]

I’m a married mom with 4 kids. We live in Upstate New York in an old 1855 house with our five pets (yes, five, *sigh*). Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I do freelance writing and blogging. My work and opinions have appeared in Salon.com, USAToday, eHow.com, iMedia.com, the Associated Press and I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?! Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side.
