The difference between us

Whenever I go anywhere with all three of my children aged five and under, people can’t but help to observe (aloud) that I have my hands full.  Whether they think I am crazy, or are in awe or are disgusted, I don’t know.  But they certainly like to tell me (as if I don’t know) [...]

Weighty Matters: Money and My Belly

Hi, Seattle. Jenny handed over a login for me to post here and trusts me no to break anything. See, most everyone at the Method party probably thinks, “Oh! Mrs. Flinger? The Drunk Girl that knocked over the Fancy Shmancy Method House Glassware and broke it?” In my defense, I do that stuff completely sober. [...]

Friday Blogger Round-up in Seattle

Oops I did it again. Sorry people. I have a reading hang-over…the kind where I get into a good book and don’t put it down till I finish it. As in 3am. But I’m here, and ready to let you in on the happenings with bloggers around the town.
The Tacheny Adventures…I believe she’s a relatively [...]

Are You Prepared?

Do you remember last winter, winter of a thousand disasters. We were flooded, froze, and blown away. I don’t know about you all but we were without power for a full week after the great wind storm of ‘06. Luckily we’d recently had a church disaster drill and were fairly well prepared [...]

Bully for you!

Hey you!
Yeah you! If you have an over-grown twelve year old with thick, short-shorn brown hair who was wearing a bright orange t-shirt on this last Tuesday, October 9th around 4:30 PM, and was hanging out in the Mercer Island public library—unsupervised–I’m calling you out. Obviously, your twelve year old has the social boundaries of [...]

Friday Blog Round-Up

It’s me again, on the search for bloggers that write. I’m noticing that many of you have not been posting this week, that means it’s been a busy week for many of us in the Northwest, or that we just didn’t feel like blogging. Either way, I feel you.
So who has made time for blogging about [...]

Make Your Park Days Count

Now that we’ve entered the weeks of eternal cloud-cover, we need to make every ounce of sunshine count. That’s why I was so excited to hear about Cookie Magazine’s article on the best playgrounds in several major U.S. cities. Seattle was listed and I can’t wait to check them out.
I’ve lived in the [...]
