NaBloPoMo it's been one hell of a month. I started the MS drugs. I traveled by car across a continent (2 countries, 1 province, 6 states) with 3 kids, survived 3 theme parks, 2 national parks and 2 flat tires. Fell way behind on the laundry. Held my head up high during Georgia's fashion crisis. [...]

Lizzy loves Chocolate …
on November 29, 2008Lizzy loves chocolate, well any sweets really. She also likes crafts. This morning we made some chocolate lollipops from a Wilton kit. Lizzy loved it -- Can't you tell.

My Very Own …
on November 28, 2008I have my very own fashion VICTIM! Yikes! Me: Georgia, why don't you wear your pink boots? They'll match. Georgia: These match. Me: No, they don't. Georgia: Yes, they do, they both have flowers! Who can argue with logic like that? Not me --> Go for it kid! Also take note, the boots are on [...]

Damn Camera Settings … Damn Kid …
on November 23, 2008You probably think that I like taking photos, right? If you said right, you'd be wrong. I quite dislike it. I hate getting out the camera, adjusting the settings, trying to figure out the best angle, where the light is. Are there shadows? The more I learn, the more critical I become, the more mistakes [...]
