I literally am writing this waiting for a play to start… I am not that old, at least by my standards and the way I feel, but I really feel old saying this : I remember a day when everyone got dressed to the nines to attend the theater. Today, I must say I am insulted and embarrassed by what people have on here around…

My daughter does not know how to eat an ice cream cone before it melts. I can blame this on many things, but I see two major reasons that may have lead to this, which I will explain. I trust you all know it is not my fault, but as her mother I will take full responsibility. Let me set this up… It is…

Over the years, I have worked hard to provide my family with the best environment I possibly can. I use organic and real foods in the house. I bake, I cook, and I work hard to make healthy and clean eating easy for my family. I use all organic and/or natural products where I can. I am in no one over the top and…

Until the past few weeks, I have really refused to admit I was in mid life. Not sure why, just was in a bit of denial. But, with the kids going back to college and probably never really coming home again; spending a lot of time with my family; and having conversations with some friends my age, I have come to grips with where I…

Before we moved to Omaha, I made all my own yogurt; greek style from milk I picked up at a local farm. I used raw milk and often times, I was lucky to get enough goat milk to make a batch or two. People thought I was crazy and that I spent way too much time on it. But, the truth is, it only took…

It’s that time of year; the kids are going back to college. They have been home with us for much of the summer and it’s been a dream for this family. But, this time as they leave, it is most likely for good. I mean I shouldn’t complain; it is all my fault, we raised them this way. I shouldn’t be upset; it is all…

My kids have always been travelers and we knew early in their lives that they would not be going to college close to home. They were both set on being in the northeast. Our son, Sam, knew he wanted to be in Boston and our daughter in New York. So, that meant we needed to make sure we planned for this by working travel into…

My husband and I are moving. After 17 years in our “starter home”, we have decided it’s time to move on. Oh, we’re not going far, just about 6 blocks down the road. Hey, we love this area and plan on staying here for awhile, so we thought it’s time to cut the cord. Sherry WernickeSherry is one of the TriWivesClub and LifeDoneWell co-founders and…

I will stand up now and declare I have pretty awesome kids and I am not just saying that. I’m just not sure how we did it. Have they had their moments? Why, yes, of course, but nothing major. Like once they hit each other, yes, just once, and I blame it on jet lag and too many delayed planes. I wanted to hit…

I am so excited! It’s July, which means I get to buy birthday gifts for teenage girls – two of my nieces. But, as they are getting older, I’m finding it harder and harder to pick the perfect gift. I know everyone says to just get them a gift card, but I really don’t like being that gift card person, even though I have been…

I was off on a 3 week adventure when Ricardo sent me this wonderful, sexy new hard case 4 wheel roll on. I am one of those “stuck on my luggage” people. I like what I have been using for years, only because it’s what I know. But, I have aways had hard case envy when I see them rolling through the airport. I was…

SUMMER WITH THE KIDS – FIRST TIME IN 9 YEARS! Let me say that again – This will be the first summer in 9 years that our kids will be home. The question that often comes next when I say this is, “Oh, do they usually spend it with another parent?” NO! David and I are their parents, but we have spent the summers alone…
