Llama Momma: March 2012
http://llamamomma.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 7, 2012. I pile the stack of books on the counter with a thud and smile at the librarian as I hand her my library card. 8220;No kids today? 8221; She asks. 8220;No. Just me.” I say. 8220;Now, I have to ask you,” she says, in her rich European accent, “you have the three little boys, yes? 8220;Yes.” I won’t pass this comment on to the noisy boys, who are ten and would take great offense at being called little. 8220;My dear,” she asks as she scans Wednesday Wars. How do I have time to read?

Clothing vs word editing: How brave are you? – Rebecca's Notepad
https://rebeccasnotepad.wordpress.com/2014/03/07/clothing-vs-word-editing-how-brave-are-you
Writing: The 360-degree lifestyle. March 7, 2014. Clothing vs word editing: How brave are you? 8220;You really want me to get rid of most of these? 8220;Some of those are brand new! It looks like we had a break-in at our house, doesn’t it? I snapped these photos after my hired image consultant put my entire wardrobe through an official closet audit. A few weeks ago I wrote a business article about a local personal image consultant, Dulcet Style. Color-wise, I am an autumn. The psychology of the responses...

Llama Momma: May 2010
http://llamamomma.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 28, 2010. Today is our first day of summer vacation, and my boys would rather be in school. They don’t want a break. They want to keep going. Even the promise of science summer camps and unlimited books at the library isn’t enough to persuade them. They’d just rather be in school. We’ll balance all this fun out with chores and math facts, but mostly, we’ll hang out at the pool. That’s just the way I roll. Do you savor summer break with your kids? Will my house be loud?

Llama Momma: January 2011
http://llamamomma.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 24, 2011. Last summer, her world fell apart. One of my dear friends got up one day like every other day, and by the end of it, her life was crumbled up around her. So we did what we have done for years, my friend and I. We headed to Chilis for nachos and a heart-to-heart. But when we got there, the nachos were gone. Off the menu. Replaced with “new and improved” nachos. Only they were not improved. Just different. Links to this post. Labels: Cooking and Food. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Llama Momma: March 2010
http://llamamomma.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 30, 2010. Epi pens and intution. I joined the club today. The “Mom’s-who-carry-epi-pens-in-case-their-child-has-a-severe-allergic-reaction” club. Not as fun as bunko. Twin B. was hanging out with his grandma and grandpa when he started having an allergic reaction, presumably to a guinea pig they were babysitting. But while I was sitting at a stoplight, still waiting for the nurse to call me back, I looked in the rearview mirror and B’s eyes had swollen shut. Trust your instincts, mom.

Llama Momma: June 2010
http://llamamomma.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 29, 2010. It’s that time of year again. Time for me to plug the Writing Academy and encourage you to check out their retreat for writers. Coming up in August. (You can choose from two tracks: the first runs from Thursday, July 29 until Monday, August 2; the second is Friday, July 30 through Sunday, August 1.) Located at the Mt. Olivet retreat center in Minnesota, you won’t find a more beautiful place to hone your craft. I cannot say enough about this writing group. Truly. I should add that ...
