My Life and Times: March 2012
http://annslife.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
My Life and Times. This is where I talk about anything I want to. Tuesday, March 20, 2012. I Dare Congress to Listen to Women's Stories. Apart from the obvious silliness - you hardly see them demanding that men announce that they need a penile dysfunction medication and explain why - it got me thinking. Do those employers REALLY want to have those conversations? My bet is this: the average employer will last about as far as the word "pad", gross out and cut right to the question: "Are you having sex?

My Life and Times. This is where I talk about anything I want to. Friday, March 11, 2011. The War on the Middle Class by the Middle Class. The recent move by the Republicans in Wisconsin to eliminate collective bargaining by government-paid employees (something that has worked in that state for the past 100 years) has brought to light a remarkable reality. Conservative, middle-class Americans are supporting policies designed to destroy the middle class. And yet, who are these bloodsucking union members?

My Life and Times. This is where I talk about anything I want to. Thursday, February 17, 2011. Our younger daughter has started to play the flute. Last night the 5th grade Band (after only three months of meeting three times a week) played a concert to demonstrate what they have done so far. It is a band filled with trumpets, clarinets and trombones, and seven intrepid flutes. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Social Moms: The Influential Moms Network. Follow me on Twitter.

My Life and Times: December 2010
http://annslife.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
My Life and Times. This is where I talk about anything I want to. Sunday, December 12, 2010. Of Floods and Blizzards. Minneapolis has been shut down by a 20-inch snowfall that collapsed the roof of the Metrodome and forced the Vikings-Giants game to be moved to Monday night in Detroit. (watch the roof collapse from inside the Metrodome here. Mid-North Indiana was hit by a slightly less dramatic snowstorm, delaying my nephews and niece's school start by two hours tomorrow.

My Life and Times: Why Every Mother Should Stop Talking About Catherine Middleton
http://annslife.blogspot.com/2012/12/why-every-mother-should-stop-talking.html
My Life and Times. This is where I talk about anything I want to. Wednesday, December 05, 2012. Why Every Mother Should Stop Talking About Catherine Middleton. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. I shudder when I imagine what it is like for the Duke and Duchess. How many of us would have sent out a press release announcing our pregnancy? Or welcome long articles speculating about what boy names? So, all you fellow moms out there. Think back. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Follow me on Twitter.

My Life and Times: Meatloaf
http://annslife.blogspot.com/2014/09/meatloaf.html
My Life and Times. This is where I talk about anything I want to. Wednesday, September 17, 2014. Last week, my favorite ex-Viking, Chris Kluwe, tweeted that he was making meatloaf for dinner. I teased him a bit, joking about meatloaf as a staple he learned in Minnesota, and claiming mine was better. (He took it in good grace, and by that I mean he didn't block me.). But something he said to me about it got me thinking, and more than just about making it for dinner. But yet, no matter how I tweak it, it s...

My Life and Times. This is where I talk about anything I want to. Friday, February 17, 2012. Really, just about every woman will probably put her two cents in on this. And I hardly know where to start. But we all have to ask the question: Why are we allowing a fringe minority of mysoginists to dominate the dialogue and policy of our country? Since when do we allow one religious group's point of view to dictate to all? It is time to stage our own Million Mom March. Links to this post. Follow me on Twitter.

My Life and Times: November 2011
http://annslife.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
My Life and Times. This is where I talk about anything I want to. Thursday, November 10, 2011. As a fan of both the Betsy Tacy books by Maud Hart Lovelace and the Mother Daughter Book Club series, I am beside myself with excitement that Heather Vogel Frederick's latest installment, Home for the Holidays (out now, in bookstores everywhere! Is about Betsy Tacy! Happy Holidays, everyone. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Social Moms: The Influential Moms Network. Follow me on Twitter.
