Randomly Generated Blogging
Looking for a quick and easy blog post? Karen Swim introduced me to something called Lazy Bloggers Post Generator. Here is what I came up with using this blogging method.
Peter Pan! I just had a cup of tea and realized I have not updated this since you last visited… You would not believe how good I look after all the plastic surgery. I hope they bring chocolate!.
I am totally exhausted with discovering time doesn’t stand still, homeschooling five children, just generally being a companion to my husband, my day is fun and exciting from 8am to 11pm at which point I fall asleep on the couch. I am totally loving it, dudes. life happens.
I probably I will make more of an effort to blog more often until the nice men in the white coats come back. Truly! Don’t hold your breath though, you’re likely to turn blue.”
I think it would be so much fun to just sit around thinking up posts like this. Wouldn’t that be cool and imaginative? Mad Lib Blogging!
Go ahead. You know you are curious! Try it! Who knows what you’ll come up with!

Return of the Bug
Well, the yucky stomach virus is visiting yet again. I keep trying to explain to him that he is not welcome here, but I am not sure he speaks English. Even if he did, I am not sure he could make sense out of the words coming out of my mouh. I am falling asleep while typing. Good night!
Dinner With The President
Luke and I had a very exciting evening tonight. I didn’t know when we went to the China Care Brown benefit dinner that we would get to sit next to the president. She seemed really nice, and someone there said that she was the most popular president in America, but I think he might have been a bit biased. If you haven’t figured it out yet, I am talking about the president of Brown University, Ruth Simmons.
It was a really nice dinner, and you’ll never guess what we had! Chinese food! Surprised? 🙂
The benefit dinner was to raise funds to help build orphanages and pay for surgeries for the orphans. Many of the children have cleft lip/palate, or other “difficulties” that keep anyone from wanting to adopt them. A relatively inexpensive surgery will change these kids lives for the better.

Early Bird Blues
All of my children have been early birds at an early age, but most of them started sleeping in as they got older. Peter has always been an early bird and probably always will be.
Family night is a time when it is unfortunate to be an early bird. Peter is always the first one to wear out, but he tries so hard to stay awake so as not to miss anything. This particular family night he did not quite make it.
Group Writing Project: Goodbye Winter
Well, Spring is right around the corner. Anybody have Spring fever? Me too!
I think it would be a good idea to let Winter go out with style instead of with a “good riddance” attitude. So, here’s the question. What part of Winter are you going to miss?
Wondering why that is important? If you recognize your favorite parts of Winter soon enough, you will have more opportunity to enjoy Winter as you are focusing on getting in those last minute “missable” moments.
So, go ahead! Give Winter a party and let it end with style! Spring might just slap you in the face before you know it!
Here’s the plan. Write a blog post about your favorite part(s) of Winter and link to this post. For those of you who don’t have a blog, let me know in the comments section below. On March 21 I will post and link to all the entries.
Note: I realize some of you are located further south than me. If it is no longer cold where you live, let us know what you enjoyed about this past Winter or what you enjoy about Winter in general.
Pyromania
At our last grill-out of the summer/fall season, I decided to take pictures of the fire to see how they turned out. What do you think?
Tea Party Revisited
Today I learned about a tea party inspired by the Boston tea party. It is called the New American Tea party. Basically the idea is to send a tea bag to several different representatives on April 1. This will ensure that the tea bag is received by April 15, the day of the tea party.
Wondering why anyone would send a tea bag to their representatives? The idea is to let the government “hear” from those who are against the stimulus package and too much government intervention.
Are you willing to send a tea bag to your representatives for this cause? Why or why not? I am genuinely curious.
Please send this to your local representatives and also to:
Nancy Pelosi
Office of the Speaker
H-232, US Capitol
Washington DC 20515
Senator Harry Reid
HART SENATE OFFICE BUILDING
Washington DC 20510
Barack Hussein Obama
President of the United States
1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW
Washington DC 20500
