    Hi Everyone, I am jumping back in once again. It was a busy week, as usual. The kids and I have tomorrow off from everything...work, school and activities...so we are looking forward to relaxing! I think our plans are just to sleep in, have a big breakfast and hang out. I suppose I will...

    Hi Everyone, Thank you all for checking up on me with Beck. Everything has been fine here, just really busy. Today was my first real day off in a while, and I spent most of it avoiding the computer as much as possible. Things are slowing down at work, so I should be able to get back here...

    Dinner was a bit of a clean up. I had a meatball sub from the leftover meatballs. Caili had a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich with the two eggs and what little bacon was left in the fridge, and Liam didn't have much of anything. He didn't feel well this afternoon. He said he was extremely...

    I tried a new recipe tonight, and shockingly, there were no complaints and the kids liked it! I made sweet and sour chicken, adapted from a Jaden Hair recipe. For those of you who like Asian food, you should check out her Steamy Kitchen blog, if you haven't already. I haven't made a lot of...

    Hi Everyone! I am on here later than usual for a Friday. I ended up having to work a couple hours today, then Caili had a birthday party to attend. It was a spa party...complete with manicures, pedicures and facials. I was jealous. Caili did decline the facial and makeup. She said she...

    Welcome Alison and Brandi! Everyone sounds like they have some fabulous weekend plans. Our plans include two baseball games, skating and Nutcracker rehearsal. I bet that sounds like more fun than foliage, Disneyland and parties. :laughing: Glynis -- Congratulations to Katie! I can't wait...

    Hi Everyone, Count me in on the hopelessly behind. Our schedule has just been crazy. However, I never disappear entirely. Dinners this week have been beef and broccoli Monday, pasta fresca Tuesday, Caili and I ate out yesterday, and tonight was a clean out the refrigerator night...

    Hi Everyone, The ballet director invited Caili to understudy the polichinelle role for the Nutcracker, so Caili is excited. She probably won't get to perform it, but I am sure she will learn a lot dancing with the more advanced girls. Dinner tonight was much more respectable than dinners...

    Hi All, Well, I am at least caught up from my last post until now. I never did get to check in earlier. Working from home turned out to be, well, work. With the constant stream of interruptions it took me seven hours to log five hours of billable time. Caili is not a soldier. Yay! She is...

    I didn't realize I was so behind on this thread, so forgive me for being a little lost. We've been completely stretched between work, school and activities. There are some days I leave the house at 7:30 AM and come back at 8:30 PM. For all I know, I already told you that. Last night, I went...

    Hi Everyone, Catching up a little during halftime. We are in full throttle here, and things are only going to get busier. Liam is playing fall baseball. He moves up to Babe Ruth in the spring, so this is an adjustment league. It really seems to take forever for the kids to run to first...

    My parents invited us for dinner tonight, so we had cheeseburgers with them. I was starving -- I spend a lot of hours at work looking at pictures of food -- so it was good. My boss introduced me to the most amazing snack today. The brand is Danielle's and they are coconut chips. SO GOOD...

    Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes for Caili! It was a very small celebration yesterday, since the kids had school, I had work, everyone else had work and Caili had ballet. The real party is Saturday. Dinner tonight was leftover Chinese food for Caili, a burrito for Liam and some of the...

    I didn't get to completely catch up. We had a busy day today because it is my little girl's 10th birthday! I can't believe it. Anyway, I started my day early so I could make her bacon and a baked apple pancake for breakfast. She loved it. Then it was off to school for the kids and off to...

    I'm glad all of you NOLA ladies made it through the storm okay. I will be happy to get that rain up here if it cools us off! Today was so hot and humid, I thought I was going to faint after running a couple of errands. My AC in the car is not working. Dinner was with my parents. We had...

    I am on my own this weekend, so my family is feeding me. I think my mom worries that I wouldn't eat if left on my own. :confused3 I am not complaining though. Last night, I had grilled bronzini, smashed white wine potatoes, pole beans (tried them again...still didn't like them), and tomato...

    The kids and I went to the Zooquarium on the Cape today. I told them I would take them for one last outing before school starts. It was fun. Caili had a great time feeding and petting all the animals, especially the deer and llama, which she doesn't usually get to see. Liam was impressed by...

    Hi Everyone, Sorry to disappear for a couple of days again. I'm glad all the people affected by Irene this weekend are fine. Monday we had dinner with my parents (steak, grilled eggplant, pole beans -- not recommended, zucchini fritters and tomato salad), last night I made BELTs for me and...
