Jennifer in Deal-Seeking Blogaholics, Style Blogaholics, Teen Blogaholics, Uncategorized - 5 comments - posted on Jul 18th, 2012The internet is full of great (and not so great) ideas. I think one of my favorite things about the Web, is that you learn a lot of awesome, yet random, ideas. One of my favorite reads was How To Use Everyday Objects for other things then they were intended. I’m excited to learn of some of these ideas, but I am a skeptic. I’m the type of person who won’t believe it until I see it. So, I’ve decided to put some of these home remedies to the test for myself. This will be my first official Everyday Object … Continue reading
A Mother’s Day Nightmare
Mara Shapiro in For the love of parenting, Holiday Blogaholics, Just Between Us, Teen Blogaholics - 4 comments - posted on Apr 24th, 2012I’m awoken gently by butterfly kisses on my cheek. I remember, as I open my eyes and stretch that its Mothers Day. I see a trio of well-dressed clean teenagers stand at the foot of my bed grinning, each holding a beautifully wrapped parcel. The dogs, freshly bathed, stand next to them, panting slightly, silk bows around their necks. My husband moves forward, and before he reaches me, my youngest child darts in front of him and grabbing one of the extra pillows, plumps it and places it behind my back. Once I’m sitting up, my man places a breakfast … Continue reading

What’s your Holiday Blueprint?
Carol Gomez in For the love of parenting, Holiday Blogaholics, Teen Blogaholics - 0 comments - posted on Dec 2nd, 2011Deck the halls with boughs of Holly, Fa la la la la la la la la! As we all know too well, holidays are more than festive occasions and celebrations. They are a time when families get together and the combination of old grudges, holiday drinks, and way too much time together can become a toxic mix verging on disaster. Sometimes we arrive at a relative’s house as an adult and quickly regress into teenage behavior. And, yep, your children, especially teens, are watching and learning. They are learning not only how you behaved as a teenager but are also developing their … Continue reading
