Dear Totino’s,If these are the Kids In America, then the kids in America (and their parents) need a major ass-kicking. I hate this commercial. HATE! Click here to see it.(I can’t embed it… sorry.) If anything? This commercial serves as a marketing deterrent. signed,A parent in America

Last night we were talking to one of my boys (who shall remain nameless while this is still a Hot Topic Issue in our household). Having just returned from Back To School night, we were asking him about the assignments and grading policies some of his teachers had shared with the parents. One class in […]

Scene: Grant invites Handsome Hubby to join him for a game of Wii Boxing. Grant: “Do you wanna play?” HH: “Sure.” Grant: “It’s really cool, you get to pick a guy and be a character.” HH: “Sounds good. What’s your character’s name?” (Listening in, at this point, I’m thinking along the lines of The Hammer, […]

Conner’s school made an announcement over the intercom this morning: Any student who pinches another student for not wearing green will get a detention. A pinch for not wearing green is considered harassment and possibly will be considered assault. Reeeeeeee-diculous.

On Tuesday Devin came home from Spanish class telling us about a Christmas custom in Spain. Instead of hanging up stockings, Spaniards put out their shoes on Christmas Eve. The shoes are filled with treats. In class, everyone took their shoes and put them out in the hallway. A secret somebody then put a treat […]

Devin, my oldest son, is 16 years old. He’ll be 17 in August. He’s handsome, he’s smart, he’s funny, he’s sweet. But… He acts first and then asks questions later. He forgets his stuff all the time. He doesn’t use his head in social situations. He just plain ‘ole doesn’t use his head sometimes…. Yesterday […]
