Themed Weekend: Happy Housework

First, I have to tell you...I am not the queen of housework happiness. If you're looking for her, you should probably go introduce yourself to FlyLady (quite a few of my readers rave about her).   It's not that I CAN'T cook delicious gourmet meals and maintain a spic-n-span home with sparkling floors and toilets.

But this year...well, let's just say we checked the weather beforehand and opted OUT of tent camping in 20 degree […]

Themed Weekend: The Great Outdoors

As summer approaches, many families have camping on their mind. Tents and RV's, lakes and mountains, S'mores and campfires, hot dogs on a stick and afternoon hikes, swimsuits and trail mix...something about the great outdoors beckons us.
