I'm a Cheater 2007-04-21 05:38:07 I guess it was the best of decisions, it was the worst of decisions, it was the best of purchases, it was the worst of purchases. I made a purchase at the local B&N store yesterday. A cheater's purchase. For... Read more:Cheater
Froogle becomes Google Product 2007-04-21 07:10:26 I'm up with The Son and The Nephew watching David Letterman as a special "staying up late" treat. Dave's doing okay tonight -- funny but not enough so to keep my full attention. So in addition to watching Letterman, I... Read more:Google

Where to Start? 2007-04-27 21:23:31 Part of the problem for a Domestically-Challenged homemaker is knowing where to start. No, let me rephrase that. I believe that a huge part of the issue for DC homemakers, at least this particular DC homemaker, is knowing where to... Read more:Start

Myth of Laziness: Chapter 2 2007-04-27 02:11:53 The Son finished the second chapter of the book yesterday evening. When asked for his thoughts on Chapter
2, he asked if the boy in this particular case study had the same issues that The Son has been "diagnosed" as... Read more:Laziness
A Bad Apple 2007-04-26 23:46:44 Our Mac Mini bit the dust this morning. The Son was doing his daily keyboarding exercises on the Mavis Beacon software when apparently the screen froze. Unable to get the mouse to move or the computer to do anything,... Read more:Apple

Money, Money, Money 2007-04-26 07:09:27 I've been hemorrhaging money lately. Haircuts, clothes and unmentionables for The Daughter, baseball gear for The Son, etc. Then, of course, there were the four nights we spent in a hotel during the family reunion. And all the extra groceries... Read more:Money
The Myth of Laziness: Chapter 1 2007-04-26 06:19:42 I've decided that The Son needs to read this book. So he's supposed to read a chapter a day (on weekdays only). Yesterday he read Chapter
1. When he was done I required that he tell me one thing about... Read more:Laziness
Last Concert 2007-04-25 07:37:12 Yesterday evening we attended The Son's last concert. Was it his last concert or the last concert this season? None of us know yet. I want him to continue for at least another year. He participates in so few social... Read more:Concert
At The Movies: Gandhi 2007-05-01 16:24:07 On Saturday evening The Son, The Nephew, The Husband, and I all watched Gandhi
together. The Husband and I had each seen it when it first came out in 1982. I was amazed at how well I remembered the movie...
Severe Pain 2007-05-01 06:38:01 I think perhaps that the three chiropractor visits were too much and triggered a major fibro flare. The pain level is so high that at times it's all I can do to keep from crying. It started on Friday night....

It's not whether you win or lose... 2007-05-03 16:10:15 The Son's baseball team suffered another loss last night. It was not a particularly pretty sight. The final score was 6-11. Ten of the opposing teams' runs were scored in the first inning. That's the inning that The Son pitched....

Frustrations 2007-05-10 21:06:20 Today seems to be one of those "full of frustrations" days. I hate days like this. The Son had a particularly difficult time waking up this morning. I had to call him several times. So we got a late start...
