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.

Talkin’ About the Weather
There’s a reason you are supposed to jot ideas down in a notebook. Especially if you are past the age of oh…say…27 or thereabout…and have a brain like a sieve. There’s so much I wanted to tell you but haven’t … Continue reading

When Relatives Come to Visit
Last weekend, our Aunt Edie and Uncle Jim made it to Seattle on their Nationwide Tour Extravaganza (OK, I’m pretty sure they just call it a really long roadtrip, but that sounds so tedious so I thought I would jazz … Continue reading

Keeping It In Perspective
Yesterday I stopped to get gas and was shivering beside my car (with Mimi’s words echoing in my head about why on earth we don’t just move to Oregon where the common folk aren’t allowed to pump their own gas) … Continue reading

Off Kilter
When Mimi was a little girl, I had to go through the next day’s plan with her before she could go to sleep every night. The next morning, she needed to go over the day’s happenings one more time…just to … Continue reading
