When Crow Goes


I have to think Cheryl Crow has a tough time getting people to shake that hand.  One square?  That is so gross.  What an idiot.  The enviro/global warming nuts will say anything. 

I personally celebrated earth day by fishing an entire roll out of the toilet (compliments of Chase who accidentally knocked it off the counter) and depositing it in the trash.  That was like 480 trips to the bathroom for Cheryl Crow and it will sit in the landfill putting off heat for some time to come.  Pass the marshmallows.

All this is complete hypocrisy of course.  Six thousand years from now when some archeologist stumbles into Cheryl Crow's carbon footprint, they will have incontrovertible evidence dinosaurs lived well into the 21st century.

I like the "dining sleeve" idea even better. What an idiot.

I could see it if this lady was just thinking out loud. She obviously isn't the brightest bulb in the pack. But she is actually giving this stuff thought and then running around the country sharing the results.

SF has now banned plastic grocery bags. If Cheryl Crow doesn't like paper napkins, she probably ought to propose we ban them and return to the old stand by - cloth napkins. This seems altogether more practical to me than wiping our noses on our sleeve.

My Blog

A few years ago, when our oldest was 4 and her two brothers were both in diapers, my in-laws were a few days into a visit from their home 3000 miles away when my father-in-law noticed that the rug under the dining room table was in serious need of vacuuming. He is not prone to domestic duties (his wife is a great housekeeper) but seeing the need, he decided to try his hand with the Hoover. As soon as 'Grandpa' declared his intention to get out the vacuum, four little feet ran for the toy box to get vacuums of their own. We had one toy vacuum and we improvised a second from a 'popper' push toy. The baby, who was not yet walking, was right in the thick of things on all fours, never one to be left out. Grandpa, trying to maneuver the self-propelled 'Wind-tunnel' around the 10 foot rug while avoiding the table legs and dodging his three little helpers, remarked in exasperation, "I just wanted to clean the rug, I wasn't looking to start a three ring circus." Welcome to my life!

About Me

My name is Tiffany. I am a 39 year old mother of 4. My husband, John, and I planned to homeschool even before we married 17 years ago but it would be several years before our oldest would be ready to start on this journey. We had our children in alphabetical order, quite by accident at first, but once we got started, we figured we had to keep it going. They are Alyssa 10, Brendan 8, Chase 6, and Emily 3. Our 4th baby, D, miscarried at 13 weeks. We have no intention of making it to Z.
