KADs Unite

Okay, so it was only six of us. But, considering the distance traveled by some, and the fact that Florida is a state better known for their love of space and cars and sprawl than loving thy neighbor, it is amazing to see that we even had another micro-mini.
We went out for, wait for [...]

New Years Resolution

We all make them, but for those with kids, the American Academy of Pediatrics has provided us with a list of resolutions for our little ones to make and try to keep.  I’m curious about the dog one.  And isn’t milk fattening?

Reading is Fun duh Mental

The yearly “Literate” study came out and revealed that Minneapolis and Seattle are the top literate cities in America.
Why am I not surprised about Minneapolis.  It is the place that brought us writers like F. Scott Fitzgerald and Louis Erdrich.  It brought us voices of Tim O’Brien and Charles Baxter.  The list is long and [...]

Times have changed

*credit goes to my aunt for sending this to me*
“The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed otherwise the country will become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, [...]
