In a nutshell
A Slice of my Life is my take on two teenagers, one husband and a whole slew of critters. Life around here is never boring!
Shaun (also referred to as my Beloved): Computer Nerd, WoW Geek and all around Nice Guy. (although sometimes I have to wonder if he's really just a 12 year old boy trapped in a 40 something year old man's body)
Kt-The Teenager: Our oldest daughter, college student, vegan, volunteer, high achiever with a goofy side.
Mimi-The Feisty Redhead: Still our baby girl, high school junior, Drama Queen, artistic and culinary inclined.
And then there’s me, Susan The one who adores them all! I hope you enjoy all the antics that go on in our little slice of the web.

Ribbit!

Those Lights in the Rearview Mirror
I was driving the girls home from martial arts using the back roads. I’d like to think it is faster as there’s rarely ever any traffic, but the speed limit is 25 mph so it probably isn’t. Mostly I just … Continue reading

I think I'm turning into my mother….
Yesterday, KT came in to the room, took one look at me and asked it I was cold. I answered her that I was a bit chilled and wondered why she had asked. She implied that it might have something … Continue reading

Adventures in Dishwashing

The Gifts
When I picked the girls up from martial arts, I told them that I had gotten them a little present. They watched as I reached into my shopping bag and handed them their identical gifts. I was rather startled when … Continue reading

More Hairy Adventures
I know, I know…I was supposed to make an appointment to get my hair fixed after yesterday’s fiasco, but I simply didn’t have time for that. I had to be at the school all day today and meet a bunch … Continue reading
