Works for me Wednesday

I have 3 kids--an 11 year old son, a 9 year old daughter and a 3 year old daughter.  By the time the first two turned three, they were potty trained.  Even though I started at age 2 for the first two, they weren't ready (I didn't know; I thought all 2 year olds were "supposed" to be potty trained at 2).  I'm very nonchalant with my third when it comes to alot of things. I guess it's because she is the baby of the house, she's my last baby (I got my tubes tied … [Read more...]

Disgusted

Do you know the price of crude oil is at $117.48  per barrel right now?  This time last year the price was at around $65.oo per barrel.  The gas prices are getting so ridiculous in the U.S., it's disgusting.  I live in the Hudson Valley in NYS and the cheapest so far is:$3.55 a gallon.  That is just crazy!  Some places around my area are already $3.65 a gallon.  $4.00 a gallon is just around the corner.  I guess I'll be staying home more often because at … [Read more...]

I have two tips for everyone!  1--If you are having trouble with your children sleeping, try an air purifier.. Not the quiet ones, you need to buy the ones that are quite noisy.  White noise = peaceful sleeping in our house.  I have 3 kids and thank goodness, none of my kids have sleeping problems.  They all started sleeping the whole night at 2 months old.  They each have their own air purifier  in their rooms and once they turn it on, they are knocked … [Read more...]

Update

I am still on a Starbucks strike.  Remember this post?  Well, I ended up NOT going to Starbucks the day they were giving away free Java.  I didn't feel like it.  I just stood home cleaning the house and playing with my 3 year old daughter.  I had better things to do then waiting on line for free coffee.So if I ever "feel the need" to go to Starbucks, I will let you know how the latte was.  I'll be sure to rate the latte and give it my best opinion.  I'm … [Read more...]

My Starbucks Strike

I have been on a Starbucks strike for almost 4 months.. I know some of you are like what??? Lisa is on a Starbucks strike?? That can't be! I know, I love coffee, Starbucks and everything about coffee but you'll understand why after you read my post.  Although, I did almost lose the strike when I went to North Carolina for Easter weekend.  Here's why: I had planned to meet a friend at a local Starbucks in N.C. that I have known over the internet for over 2 … [Read more...]

This small video can save ALOT of lives!

I almost burned my grandparents house down when I was about 11 years old.  Here's the story:My sister and I were hungry so I decided to peel and cut some potatoes to make some French fries for us.  After I did that, I took some oil, placed it in a pot and turned on the gas.  While it was heating up, I decided to go to my grandparent's room to see what my grandfather was watching on his tv. He was watching wrestling so I decided to watch the show with … [Read more...]
