Takin’ on Tahoe

Sometimes I get a bit frustrated. I FINALLY got around to writing the commentary to go with these pictures and wordpress said “nope, sorry! not logged in” and when I went back Presto! Everything was gone. Well, I can’t be witty TWICE! So now this is going to suck. Awesome. You’ve been warned! A couple [...]

I love getting back to nature, as long as that nature has access to high speed internet. Right now the kids are playing ping-pong upstairs. I’m sitting in bed, blogging and watching [...]

Today was officially the first day of summer, according to the school calendar. It was a hot, lazy, typical northern California summer day. Perfect if you’re a kid. Totally sucky if you’re a wage-earning adult. Since I fall into the second category, I didn’t enjoy today nearly as much as my first-category kids did. Yesterday [...]

It’s been a week since my last update. Wow, how time flies when you’re on vacation and then DYING!! Ok, not really dying. But it was a blecky cold and I felt like crap, so that totally counts. The SoCal vaca was totally awesome! Tuesday night, we got to see my uber-adorable neice Laney dance [...]
