This is my 13th Thursday Thirteen! How´s that for good luck. So, today I´m going to share 13 creative things that I love to do. Of course, I don´t have much time to do any of them anymore!

A Survey Company That Might Actually Be Worth It

Posted on September 17, 2007 - Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment

I keep seeing all these ads for survey companies and reading how people supposedly earn hundreds of dollars for this stuff. Unfortunately, I´m never eligible for them because I don´t live in the US or Canada.
But, I just got wind of a new site called A.W. Surveys that actually accepts international survey takers [...]

I Have Escaped

Posted on August 15, 2007 - Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment

I am writing this from a computer in an internet cafe in Antigua. I have escaped!
Actually, the truth is that I was kicked out of the house for being a big grump. Irving told me to go do the shopping on my own. In the rain. I didn´t want to go, I would much [...]

Where Am I Going to Sleep?

Posted on August 8, 2007 - Filed Under Uncategorized | 3 Comments

When I was about 8.5 months pregnant with Dante, we had to buy a new bed. The old one was absolutely wrecking my back! There was a raised bit in the middle and both sides dipped down so far you could feel the box spring.
Not to mention the lovely assortment of metal bits jutting up [...]

Rechargable Batteries

Posted on July 28, 2007 - Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment

I wish my body had rechargable batteries. Wouldn´t that be nice? Anyway, that has nothing to do with this post!
Yesterday, in my little major shopping spree, I bit the bullet and bought a new set of rechargable batteries. They were expensive, but we really needed them, since our old ones passed that 1,000 charges milestone [...]

How to Occupy a Toddler

I recently had a bit of extra money and a 20% off coupon for a Canadian children´s toy store, so I ordered some toys for my boys. Just a few, a couple of baby toys (for 3-18 months) for Dante and a couple of puzzles for Dorian. They are the wooden kind that you lift [...]

To all those in Canada, Happy Canada Day! I wish I were there to celebrate with my family, but I guess good wishes from afar will have to do!

Sorry

In the process of reinstalling my At Home Mom files, the backups for this blog were also reinstalled, meaning that I have lost information off this blog as well! I´m going to be working on getting the articles back up over the course of the day, but if you were one of the nice people [...]

Some People Are Just Too Generous!

Posted on June 29, 2007 - Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment

I just got back from Antigua where we met up with a woman who is adopting a beautiful baby girl from here. This woman and I started talking a week ago, when our kids started playing together (she also has a 5 year old son), and she told me that she was leaving soon.
She said [...]
