Outside Providence: July 2012
http://outsideprovidence.blogspot.com/2012_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 06, 2012. If you squeeze a button on the back of the nose, a gooey kind of snot-like substance bulges out of the nostrils. E, as you can see, bought two (at the Mutter Museum in Philadelphia, where else? I think the golden age of traveling with children. Is probably 7 to 11 or so. E was still pretty fun, except he is (according to my mom) exactly like me, and wherever he is, he wants to know when we're leaving and going to the next place. S turned 13 last week. Need I say more?

Outside Providence: August 2011
http://outsideprovidence.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 21, 2011. I've been home only 4 days out of the month so far. I never want to leave my bed again. One of the afternoons, while my mom was there, my sister, mom and I went to the farm. I won't be too specific about the farm, but a few important things about it:. 1 My mom's best friend's family owns it. The family matriarch is still alive at age 92, but her husband died 9 months before my daughter was born, and my mom's friend died when my daughter was a few months old (breast cancer). They'...

Outside Providence: Sandy
http://outsideprovidence.blogspot.com/2012/10/sandy.html
Monday, October 29, 2012. I know I'm not the only one humming "Oh Sandy bay-beeee, can't you see? Moved the cars across the street:. That's the view from my bedroom window. There is a tree all the way to the left, plus pines overhanging the driveway (also on the left). We've all showered. I made food from the freezer last night for dinner. The bathtub's full of water. Enjoy some Joss Whedon endorsing Romney:. Oh, I hadnt thought of filling the bathtub with water! For cleaning and flushing, right?

Outside Providence: Gardens, New and Old
http://outsideprovidence.blogspot.com/2013/07/gardens-new-and-old.html
Friday, July 12, 2013. Gardens, New and Old. We moved in May to a new house just 1/2 miles away. It's a little bigger than our old house, and we needed some more space. Over the past 3 years, I've installed and worked on a garden at the old house. Here are some pics of it near its summer peak (the rudbeckia aren't blooming yet):. The new house has a different palette:. The light purple ones, not the reddish ones. I have only two of them. Hmmmm. I love the truffala tree! July 12, 2013 at 10:37 PM.

Outside Providence: June 2012

Tuesday, June 05, 2012. The Unpaid Work of the PTO Mom. Going out the window: any hope of cooking healthy meals this week. Last night was pizza. Tonight will likely be Wendy's. Who knows about Wednesday because I am pretty much screwed. I think I've been invited to a BBQ. Maybe I can eat and run? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Lawyers, Guns and Money. No More Mister Nice Blog.

Outside Providence: From One Natural Disaster To Another
http://outsideprovidence.blogspot.com/2013/02/from-one-natural-disaster-to-another.html
Friday, February 08, 2013. From One Natural Disaster To Another. I've been reminded that the last time I posted was during Hurricane Sandy. And today we have Winter Storm Nemo. I live in Ground Zero for Nemo (southeast Massachusetts), and we expect over 2 feet of snow. Wheee. The kids just got into their first fight while playing Wii. Wiiiiii! I am smitten with these little rats (as my husband calls them). They love me, too, but I think that's only because I bring them nuts to munch on. From One Natural ...

Outside Providence: May 2012
http://outsideprovidence.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 31, 2012. Neither of my children has been challenged very much in their lives, and I desperately want them to have those challenges. It works better, because of their contrary natures and my husband's and my easygoing natures, for them to be challenged by others rather than us. But it is so hard to find things that challenge them and to motivate them to see the challenges through. Wednesday, May 30, 2012. Laura's post on the six-year-old spelling bee contestant. But it was black crayon!

Outside Providence: September 2012
http://outsideprovidence.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 03, 2012. The Benefits of Private Education. A friend of the family lives 1.8 miles from the Catholic school where she sends her 7 year old son. The bus company just notified her that her son will be picked up at 6:33 am for an 8:05 start time. No Fucking. Way. She's going to go medieval on the people who invented going medieval. Karma.
