I have been struggling with a coding problem for several hours. Getting extremely frustrated! When this kind of thing happens, I just can’t do ANYTHING else! I must figure out and solve the problem … GRRRR!

Then it dawned on me, I hadn’t taken a 30 Tiny Moments photo or written my blog post (or fed the kids – oh well, I sure Mr. MK did … don’t worry). I ran in the livingroom and snapped this picture.

Imagine it’s 20 degrees below ZERO. Imagine how cold that is. (Those of you living this, don’t waste your energy imagining. You live with the horror, just bear with me.) Imagine how TERRIBLE your life would be if your parents made you wear mittens! OH THE HORROR! Imagine if (like Read more…

All in All it's just another ...

In fact, it has happened so often, the kids do a thorough inspection now before daring to douse their beloved cereal in potentially ‘rotten’ milk. Generally, Lizzy does the inspections, you know because she’s older and more qualified to sniff cartons and read expiry dates. Today Sam did the honors.

Mr. MK: “I just bought it. How old is it?”

I find making school lunches difficult! One of my pet peeves is making sandwiches (I know it’s weird, but true), I don’t like making salads either, but that’s another post (sounds boring so maybe not).

School Lunch

This was the lunch Sam took to school with him today. Tuna sandwich on whole wheat (they both love tuna), Juice (with veggie), frozen Yogurt tube (probably has a bunch of sugar added, don’t tell me I am happy not knowing for sure), cheese, cucumber & carrots, granola bar (kind with the health check).
