So last month I mentioned to you in my post, “My blog is going worldwide” that I was on a mission to increase my blog traffic. I am happy to report, that it has been working, but somehow I am making less money. Humm, so confused? Nevertheless, I think I have figured out…

Are you a work widow?
The other day my friend offered to help me set up for the Tuberous Sclerosis picnic in August because I commented to her, “Lou will probably be working and not able to attend the picnic this year”. She said “Oh, I know what it is like to be a work widow, I will help!” …
Try not to laugh…
As I have mentioned or rather I think I have mentioned, Tiara has the worst table manners in the history of mankind, including cavemen. She has never been great in the table manners department but ever since her surgery last year her manners are non existent. We are not sure whether it is because she…
Something funny about me, you probably don’t know…
If you are a regular reader, you know by now, once I get hooked on something I sometimes go a little overboard. Well, what you probably don’t know about me is I used to be a “bird lady”. Yes, at one point we had 13 parakeets and I let them fly around the…
The backs of my legs are throbbing again!
I know this may sound really weird but whenever I get really stressed the back of my legs behind my knees, throb and pain. Has this ever happened to you? It started last year when Tiara was in the hospital for 3 months. At first I thought it was from sitting upright in a chair…
I only had to do the Heimlich once, but we survived!
So, as most of you know, I took Tiara to the fair yesterday. It was super humid and hot but I decided to forge ahead and follow through with my plan. At 3:30 Trinity and I loaded up the car, with 15 cans of food because every person who brought in 5 cans before…
Do we dare try again?
It is fair time again, and yes my family loves the fair. Tabitha and Trinity actually ride all the frightening crazy rides designed for adrenaline junkies. Apparently my girls get this from Louie because I feel sick just watching the rides and can’t be persuaded to ride anything at the fair. I am…
Have you ever done a crayon sweep?
As all my regular readers know, Tiara has a serious obsession with crayons. I usually buy 5 packs every time I visit Target and hide them in the hall closet. Everyday, she asks “more crayons, more crayons.” even though her basket is overflowing. She just loves the smell and feel of the new crayons. …
is it better to look good or feel good?
If you would have asked me this question 13 years ago my answer would have been unequivocally, ‘LOOK GOOD!” If you asked me today, I would say “FEEL GOOD!” Why is that? I guess with age comes a certain maturity and acceptability about who you are and what is important. The truth is if…
Where is the brush?
You may find this hard to believe but it is practically impossible to find a brush in our house. You are probably thinking, well if you just keep it in a drawer I am sure it will be there tomorrow when you look for it. If only it was that easy. The truth is…
