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.
That’s So Yesterday

Quick…Pretend you are asleep!
Yesterday, Mrs. Darling posted about some of her family’s traditions. It made me think about some of my family’s eccentricities traditions. Of course, we celebrate all the major holidays, probably much like your family does. Then again, I don’t know … Continue reading

The Valentine Bunny

One of Shaun’s favorite quotes is Homer Simpson’s, “You know, Marge, in some ways, you and I are very different people …” As much as I hate to admit it, I think this very profound statement finally cemented it in … Continue reading
