The King has taken over the kitchen. The man needs food, he’s on a mission. I stay as far away as I can…. it’s not safe 🙂 Paleo has gone right out the window today but when you’re hungry sometime ya just need some toast and beans. Now the man can get the job done, don’t let anyone tell you …
Every Cloud has a silver……….OH BAH!
Are you a positive person or a negative person? Do you see the bright side of everything, the silver lining or do you tend to be pessimistic and negative about everything? I have to admit I tend to go to the pessimistic side. Always have. I try very hard to be positive and look for the good in everything and …
I Beat the Black Dog…………….. for Now.
I have been feeling really low and moody and angry for the last few days. The black dog sure has been chasing me down. I have been struggling with my duties at the school, I have been struggling to get Grand Master D to commit to a full week of school each week. I have been struggling with the kids …
Paleo Breakfast 6/13
This morning I felt like an egg change. I haven’t had poached eggs for a long time, so I set about making those. You know, water in pan, then eggs let them bubble until the yolk goes opaque. Some people put vinegar in the water, I’ve never done that. It doesn’t seem necessary. Though I could be wrong 🙂 Now …
Tweens
Moving into the tween almost teen years is really testing my resolve. I am going to have to hit the books to solve these problems. I’ve got the sleeping, tantrum little kid thing down but this age is all new to me and it’s hard. I battled for an hour this morning with Grand Master D who insisted he was …
Breakfast 6/11
This morning I thought scrambled eggs might be nice, now of course they’re simple to do and anything can go into them so recipes are not really required. What you need: Eggs and whatever you want to add.
The proposed RV Trip
For some time now the King has been saying we should go on a road trip in an RV,(recreational vehicle) not unlike the Robin Williams movie RV. The Princess lives in trembling fear of this and we use it against her all the time. 🙂 Bad parents. Of course I think it would be totally crazy driving across the country …
Secret Women’s Business
Don’t you just love it when you’re sitting down with the family enjoying a lovely evening of television viewing and then all of a sudden the ads start. You know the ones I’m talking about. The ones that make you squirm. Yes I’m talking about feminine products. Ok we all use them but seriously do we really need to be …
Camping? The Beach? I don’t think so
We are not a camping family. We like our creature comforts, we’re never far from internet and enormous televisions. The kids just love to go to 5 star hotels. Since Grand Master D was little he was always the room checker, we’d let him go in first to see if it was acceptable. Now I know what you’re thinking..
The Chaperone Experience
Today was one of the many field trips for the kids winding down to the end of the year. I went along as a chaperone, as I have many times before. This trip was to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge and have ice cream from the Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory. Let me tell you that walking across the Brooklyn Bridge …
