Parenting…

Stepford Mom — Wed, 19 May 2010 00:24:40 +0000

There are things that we think about as parents, times in the future that may or may not occur that we plan for. We do everything we can to educate our kids and keep them safe but sometimes decisions our out of our hands, all we can do is deal with the results of the [...]

Back for a quartly post and random thoughts on social media

Stepford Mom — Fri, 14 May 2010 15:27:21 +0000

I spend a lot of time on facebook and twitter. It’s gotten to the point that I don’t bother here, because I can throw a quick update out on those sites with little to no effort, and I always feel that posts here should be a bit more substantial. The problem is that there’s nothing [...]

It’s all about focus

I seem to have lost mine somewhere along the way. I think it’s the problem that occurs when one has too much time to do things and too many options, hence, not a whole lot gets done. There is a stack of books on the shelf I keep meaning to read. There are projects that [...]

A fairly painless start

The holidays are over, and the decorations will be back in the boxes later this week. It went by a lot faster than I thought it would, with family coming here to the house for the first time in quite a while. It was a stress free weekend and then the week after of just [...]

birthdays blow

There are a million things I could say right now, but I can’t. There are things I should be doing today that are not going to get done. I need to go back to the eye doctor tomorrow and order my glasses. Based on expenses, bills and all the fun stuff that goes along with [...]

Gah…I have a blog

I had no intention of ignoring you, but I did, yet again. The holidays are here, new games arrived, I suck at being consistent. Deal with it. I should make a resolution to try and pay attention to this thing next year, maybe partake in the post every day or die trying thing… nah……

Just because I have tits…

It does not mean that I have no brain when it comes to hardware. If I walk into your little local computer store to purchase a new power supply (because you are local and I would like to give you my business rather than going 12 miles down the road to the big blue building [...]

Halloween was a bust…

Stepford Mom — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 12:50:16 +0000

It rained here all day and into the night. We had maybe a total of 5 cars of parents driving kids around in the damp and we were done and turned off the lights at 8pm. The problem lies in that we normally get a ton of kids, and with it being a Saturday, I [...]

Google Wave Invites

Stepford Mom — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 10:59:49 +0000

**Thanks for the comments, all are given out. The advantage of having a total geek for a husband is that he got in on the first group of people in the developer sandbox when wave opened. I had to wait two weeks to get my invite from him. It looks like they’re running this the [...]

home from vacation

Stepford Mom — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 19:27:22 +0000

I think I need one to recover now. Driving 7 hours and turning around and having to go back out sucks…. I’ll be better tomorrow when life goes back to normal around here.
