I mentioned that we are adding on to our house. A nice new bedroom, bathroom, and a garage/workshop for my husband. We are very excited about it. The architect finished the plans and we hired a contractor to do the foundation. He showed up one beautiful morning and got everything going. I thought it would [...]

I recommend that you never:
say “I’m trying to figure out if Greg, the Wiggle is dying” when your husband asks you what you’ve been up to on-line for the last 40 minutes.

A few years ago I watched, from the passenger seat of the car, as a guy in a BMW cut off a guy on a motorcycle.  He then stopped suddenly in front of him.  Luckily the motorcycle driver swerved and just missed a collision.  For the record, this wasn’t a Sunday driver kind of cyclist.  [...]

How many times have I said ‘Pick up the towel and turn out the light’ after one of my kids have washed their hands? Here is evidence to suggest that they do listen.
I’m sure I’m not the only parent who is hanging their head in defeat when they view this. :)
