What causes Dads Lack of Incontinence? »

When my dad began to get elderly and run down, I noticed that he didn’t seem to have the bladder control problems that so many elderly do.  I never really thought to ask why as he went through a stroke and then recuperation and then a relapse again.  Toward the end, he definitely was wearing [...]

The Yards Are So Charming With Fountains! »

Last night, my dogs got out and we had to go running around the neighborhood searching for them.  It was kind of a drag because it was still a little bit cold out (even though it’s June!) but mostly because we were running around with flashlights at midnight.  We spent about a half an hour [...]

Insane Day Tomorrow! »

It’s not the three kids part that is the craziest part of being a mom, it’s not even the part about having a career that is both demanding and constantly fluctuating; I swear to god it’s the driving.  I feel like I drive all day, every day.  I had to get a Blackberry so I [...]

Souvenirs Worth Taking Home »

People often spend a lot of money on souvenirs when they travel. Typically this ends up being a waste of money.
