I have decided to leave my job at the Mall. 
Hmmmm…could it be because working until 1 in the morning is just not cutting it.  Vilay is not loving picking me up with the three kids in the backseat of the car.  He has to drag them all out by himself into the cold night.  Why?  We [...]

I have changed my template…again. 
I love snow. 
Reeaaalllyyy.  I do. 
I like to look at snow. 
I hate to be in it.  I hate to be cold.  
With Christmas coming up quick, I thought I’d decorate my blog a bit.  You know.  Get into the spirt. 
The girls have been admiring all the Christmas decorations that are going up on [...]

I was gone all of two and a half years.  However, during that short time Ohio changed.  Alot. 
There are even more places to shop and eat.  As if we really needed more.  But, that is a small thing compared to another issue that is more important.
I see a ”new” Mexican immigration where before the biggest [...]

Petite Clown and Boy Blue have been sporting the overflowingsnotnose that goes with fussy and sick babies. 
Guess who is now sick? 
I went home from both of my jobs early today and am about to hit the sack for the night.  It is another early day that this sick girl must make herself get up out [...]

Follow this link to visit 9/11 from the window of a Mr. Smith’s apartment window.  Once you have looked at all the photos, go back to the first one to compare it to the last photo. 
To this day I grow quiet and sad when I see images of 9/11 or think of that awful day.  [...]

A guy that I work with asked me what I missed the most about living in France.  I, at first, told him that I missed the food and culture.  I missed the history.  I missed visiting neighboring countries.  You know.  All the typical things.  All the things that I do miss.  However, last night while we [...]

I found out an interesting thing the other day in regard to turkeys.  We all know how turkey is a must have dish on any Thanksgiving table, right?  
Well. 
I was talking with someone in a grocery about how fresh is a fresh turkey.  I asked him how long after the turkey is killed does it take to reach the grocery.  [...]

I worked at the mall for six hours today until five.  Then, we rushed home to eat and get the kids ready for trick or treating which began at six.  I had to dress them and put make-up on their faces.  I sprayed Petite Clown’s hair straight up.  She looked adorable as a little red [...]

We took Boy Blue and Petite Clown into the county health department for their shots today.  Boy Blue got two (he had already gotten two a couple months back from this health clinic) and Petite Clown got one.  Each shot was 5 dollars totaling up to 15 bucks.  I wasn’t upset to pay that for [...]

I can hear the rain falling on the house as it has been for the second day.  It rained most of yesterday and will rain until Saturday.  I don’t mind.  I like the rain. 
Next week will warm up just in time for Halloween.  I think I am more excited about Halloween than the kids.  The [...]
