And yet, I know what I don’t like when it comes to cleaning my house.  I don’t like…

Today is the first Sunday of Advent, or in my house, the first Sunday that I can decorate the house for Christmas, sing “O Holy Night” at the top of my lungs, buy a Christmas tree and not feel guilty.  It is also when I will display my Advent Calendars and begin the countdown to…

For much of the country, Monday is back-to-school day.  Yes, some of you have already sent your children off for another fun and exciting year, and some will probably enjoy a summer vacation that lingers until after Labor Day, but for most of us, this weekend is our last chance for back-to-school supply shopping.  I…

I’m not sure if it’s official, but based on my body’s thermometer, this has been the hottest summer on record.  Back in my slacker teenager days, I would have welcomed this number of days in the 90’s and yes, even the 100’s.  An excuse to sleep in until 1:00 and then lounge around all day…
