46er Family: November 2008
http://46erfamily.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
The storm blew the roof off the barn; now, I can see the stars. Monday, November 10, 2008. It is more than calm that takes over at the barn. I literally feel like i enter a different state. Oscar and I woke up early and walked the "estate". We made pancakes, ran errands (Clarke got an awesome ski jacket at the Saranac Lake ski club used ski sale), went bowling ($3 per game! Or is it brain space? The weather was "eh." Too warm and rainy. We are ready ready ready for the snow! Posted by Slope Opera. Sarana...

46er Family: One Week?
http://46erfamily.blogspot.com/2008/10/one-week.html
The storm blew the roof off the barn; now, I can see the stars. Thursday, October 30, 2008. So Saranac Lake, you couldn't wait one week before you started Winter Wonderland 2008-2009 Edition? When I saw the picture of our yard from Wednesday, I literally gasped. Too exciting. The boys and I are heading up next week to get ready for our winter fun. The picture also prompted me to call our trusty neighbor Bill to inquire if he has found any firewood. Anyone know a good source? Posted by Slope Opera.

Mad Mommy Meanderings: September 2010
http://madmommymeanderings.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Navigating motherhood and life out loud. Monday, September 13, 2010. So another month has passed in silence. My resolve to write daily, or at least steadily? Back in the toilet. Nope, not this time. Busy as ever, but not too busy to jot something down. No, I have had highs and lows but for the most part pretty steady. I had one kid start high school and another middle school in that time period. Material I've got. In spades! And then it caved. What would MAJOR feel like - yikes! Links to this post. Obvio...

Mad Mommy Meanderings: July 2009
http://madmommymeanderings.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Navigating motherhood and life out loud. Sunday, July 19, 2009. And the Winner is. As usual my husband came through at the bitter end against all hope. Not only found a great car but also an amazing deal. Really, when will I ever learn that my badgering, bullying and doubting him completely is generally all for naught? Links to this post. Saturday, July 18, 2009. Not generally associated with the experience to my knowledge. Here is the rundown:. Next we must embark on the auto visits. The first stop ...

Mad Mommy Meanderings: The Cake was the Boss
http://madmommymeanderings.blogspot.com/2011/08/cake-was-boss.html
Navigating motherhood and life out loud. Tuesday, August 23, 2011. The Cake was the Boss. Soooooo.the next time you hear me say bake without "ry" at the end of it - QUICK - distract me! Break out the wine, bring up some good gossip, just gently lead me away from the kitchen. It is definitely time for an intervention. I'm not a bad cook. I'm not inspired and effortless like my mom and sister, but I can churn out a decent family meal and occasionally the "PTO cookbook worthy" appetizer or salad. I also sho...

Mad Mommy Meanderings: October 2009
http://madmommymeanderings.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Navigating motherhood and life out loud. Friday, October 9, 2009. Systematic torture of a marshmallow mommy. I present to you the scene of the crime - the Mort Harris Recreation and Fitness Center on the campus of Wayne State University. Looks harmless, doesn't it? It even looks rather pleasant. Ah, how easily we are fooled! Folks - this is a torture chamber - trust me on this one! Well, 5000 calories per day later, my rear end is most certainly bigger, thanks to Texas! He asks what my goal is for our se...

Mad Mommy Meanderings: June 2009
http://madmommymeanderings.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Navigating motherhood and life out loud. Monday, June 29, 2009. Summer Weekend to Savor. Ahhhhh. the perfect bliss of this late June weekend. Yes, it was hectic. Yes, as usual, we had too many places to be and things to do. However, somehow, it managed to encompass all the best elements of summer. (Ok, all the best elements short of "cottage life" at Bear Lake - come back in August to read about that.). We lost. Not in any sort of spectacular way, just in a hard fought but outplayed kind of way. And seri...

46er Family: Ski Season!
http://46erfamily.blogspot.com/2008/12/ski-season.html
The storm blew the roof off the barn; now, I can see the stars. Monday, December 15, 2008. We didn't arrive until Saturday afternoon, which was a great excuse not to be productive or cook but just to chill out and ski. In our absence we had a freezing water pipe accident, but by the time we arrived on Saturday, Bill, our trusty neighbor, had not only fixed the pipes, but rerouted and insulated some problem areas. Each year we are making little improvements. Posted by Slope Opera. View my complete profile.

The storm blew the roof off the barn; now, I can see the stars. Tuesday, July 29, 2008. Yikes, it's been a long time! Boys have been up at the barn with their dad and I've tried to convince them to blog about their epic climb of McKenzie Mountain (! Not bad, eh? Posted by Slope Opera. Saturday, July 12, 2008.
