Every morning our family watches KTLA news while everyone is rushing around getting ready for the day. I have never been a fan of the news because it is always so negative but since Lou loves watching the news I have adapted over the years. I have always been a newspaper girl. Last Sunday I…
my thoughts about life
What I saw in a week…
Do you ever see things during the day that make you shake you head and wonder, “what is going on here”? Here are some things I have seen in the past few days that were either funny, ironic, perplexing, silly, confusing or just down right sad. I was driving down Newport Blvd today and heard…
Have you started spring cleaning yet?
Monday I woke up and decided I had to start spring cleaning because every drawer, closet and cabinet in our home was a disaster. Once I got Trinity off to school and Tiara situated. I started pulling everything in my room away from the wall. Because we don’t have carpets or any rugs dust seems…
Who can we trust?
All week I have been hearing about Jose Fernandez, the highest paid superintendent in the state of California and I am beyond disgusted!. I am horrified that he received $663,000 in compensation last year and yet he only oversees 3 high schools with approximately 6600 students. I read the conditions in some of the classrooms…
Is cutting back on my wine a good idea?

A whirl wind weekend
I am writing this instead of watching “everyone” walk down the red carpet. I figure I will see their dresses a hundred more times before the month is over so why not continue on my roll of activity. Since Thursday it feels like Lou and I have finished a bunch of stuff we had been…
The sciene project in my kitchen…
I have 3 tween girls (2 of which clearly have ADHD) in my kitchen trying to agree on how to organize and conduct their eco vs. chemcials cleaning project for science class. I am trying to keep quiet and say nothing but my stomach is forming knots. I usually let Trinity do all her group…
Look what I’m taking…
I have been introduced to some new products that may change my life and quite possibly yours too. On Tuesday I met with Santa Banta, Stanford graduate, local Mother of 3, health advocate and the creator of accelerated health products. I know Sara from the community and have heard wonderful things about the products she…
