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

Running With Hoofs
It’s taken me a while, but I’m finally learning something about myself. I’m an all or nothing kinda gal. I’ve had these pictures loaded onto my Live Writer page for over a week now. Only…waaaay out in the woods I … Continue reading

Never Doubt The Groundhog
Exactly a week ago, Punxsutawney Phil poked his head out of his burrow and was frightened by his own shadow, thus predicting six more weeks of winter. We smiled at the news, wished everyone a “Happy Groundhog Day” and went … Continue reading

Snow Isn't For Wimps
A week or so ago, my blog started to snow. I simply had to smile at all the people that were charmed by it, and wanted to know how they could get snow for their blogs too. Now, I would … Continue reading

Susan of the Forest
Whenever Shaun can’t find me right away, he starts calling for me in a very pathetic sort of way. “Suuuuuuuzzzzzzzzzzyyyyyyy” he calls. “Oh Suuuuuzzzzzzyyyyyyyyyy ….where are yooouuuuuuuu…..” I almost always choose to ignore him. This is partly because of a … Continue reading

A Cat of a Different Color
“Don’t you think Buddy looks exactly like Morris?” my husband asked me as he sat stroking our enormous purring orange fur ball. “Huh?” Was my response. (I’m verbose like that) “You remember…Morris the Cat?” Of course I remembered Morris the … Continue reading

For today’s adventure, we decided to celebrate yet another glorious, sunny day with a trip to the zoo. Not our normal, Woodland Park Zoo mind you. Nope, we went to the Port Defiance Zoo and Aquarium. (For some reason it … Continue reading
