Believe me, if there were a more apt title, I wouldn’t have used a line from a song.
He (maybe, she) uses the cats’ water bowl for a swimming dipping pool most nights.
It’s going to be a very busy two weeks ahead as the schoolyear winds up. There are also domain and server issues I have [...]
The whole point in retiring early was to spend more time with the kids while they were growing up. It wasn’t a tough choice to make. I was never the ambitious young lawyer that most of my peers were. That retirement proved better than I ever imagined was a bonus. I had the opportunity to [...]
Many people have asked me how I manage to write so much in one day. I have several blogs and I write for the print media too. You know, most times, the words just flow and my fingers just have to keep up with the pace at which my mind races. It might sound weird [...]
We’re spending the weekend away from the house and I’m posting this as a future entry. It’s Sam’s request that we go somewhere nice for her birthday.

But my kids are crazy about smoothies and fruit shakes and a blender would not only keep them busy over the vacation, I would benefit [...]
I’m back home from class. Second meeting with the seniors for their Internet and Law elective; first meeting with the IT Guild, a hodgepodge of high schoolers from first to third year.
The IT Guild is one of the more than a dozen clubs in school, a required extracurricular once-a-week activity. But it’s not just going [...]
I never thought there would be a “career and profession” category in any of my blogs. I left behind a career — by choice — when I became a mother.
