“I Didn’t Do It.” – “It’s Not My Fault”
Wednesday Fun

filed in Raising Teenagers on May.25, 2010

You know you’re a mom (who blogs) when…….. before yelling..…you reach for the camera and start snapping shots. . So two of my kids are still in school, one’s out for the summer.  This is what I walked in to find this afternoon after everyone was home.   It’s one of those big exercise balls. I [...]

What would you do…oo..oo..
For a protein bar?

filed in Raising Teenagers on Apr.30, 2010

MC….my 17 year old daughter.  She’s so much like me it’s scary: “Mom, can I have one of those protein bars you bought?” “No.  They are for your brother.” “What?  What do you mean?    Why can’t I HAVE one?    That’s not fair!” “They are expensive and he needs them after his workouts.  They are for [...]

MC and Alan are making their lunches for school.  It’s 6:45am. MC:  “So you’reeee the one who leaves the bread all wrong…taking slices from the middle and leaving it all jumbled so that the next person has a hard time getting their bread out of the bag….Rude!!” ALAN:  “Well, (smiles) I had to do it [...]

filed in Raising College Kids, Raising Teenagers on Mar.04, 2010

This meme requires posting a picture that is powerful, that expresses emotion, and speaks volumes to me. . So, most of you know my oldest daughter is in college.   She sent me a text this morning with this photo.   Their RA had covered all the mirrors in the bathroom with newspaper and on the paper [...]

Miscellaneous Musings

filed in Miscellaneous Musings, Raising Teenagers on Feb.28, 2010

My Middle Child cracks me up.   The other day she got some college literature in the mail.  It was from Deree College in GREECE.  The photos on the mailing were stunning.  In fact, I might want to go back to school.   There.   Anyhoooo….she looked at it and said…”I wanna go HERE!”   Doesn’t care what courses [...]

Sadistically Smiling in the Window

filed in Raising Teenagers on Feb.08, 2010

When I first learned to drive my father made me learn how to change a tire.   I remember thinking ‘you are NOT serious!’.   I was sure he hated me…for why else would he put me through so much physical exhaustion?   So, for about 2 hours….I struggled…me & my 90 pound frame… jacking up a [...]

R-e-s-p-e-c-t

filed in Just a rant, Raising Teenagers on Jan.28, 2010

To all you moms of toddlers out there who sometimes want to pull your hair out….brace yourselves.  One day they’ll turn into teenagers.    Remember when Linda Blair’s head spun around in the Exorcist?  Yup…it’s a whole lot like that.   Not that it’s like that all the time…but there doesn’t seem to be a happy medium.  [...]

  • My favorite monologues from the series!

    A child is born to innocence. A child is drawn towards good. Why then do so many among us go so horribly wrong? What makes some walk the path of darkness, while others choose the light? Is it will? Is it destiny? Can we ever hope to understand the force that shapes the soul? To fight evil, one must know evil. One must journey back through time and find that fork in the road, where heroes turn one way and villains turn another.
    2008 Season 3
