Keeping it Together
Things I’ve learned while moving...
Some people don’t clean up after their pets
Bird poo is hard to remove from wall
Some cleaners will remove paint from walls, but not bird poo
People who don’t clean up after pets, often don’t clean refrigerators either
Houses smell really bad when people don’t clean up after pets or clean refrigerators

Rusty’s Great Adventure Part II
One morning, my kids were playing outdoors while I cleaned the kitchen. My youngest son, who was two at the time, came in and announced, "Mom, I put Rusty in the hole."

Homeschooling Multiple Ages - If I can do it - you can too
I get asked quite often how I homeschool all four little kids at once and I usually give a very believable answer about rotating stations consisting of books, puzzles, computer, games, etc.
Forsythe Family Happenings
I am the parent of a teenager - that means I am insane!
I have a teenage daughter. I love her very much however, at times it feels like we are from different planets. Sometimes she blinks her eyes and says, "I love you, mommy" - translation - I want something. Sometimes she looks at me with an expression that says, "I hate you" - translation I need you to understand me.

Potty training. AH! Potty training!
With my first dear son I was such a basket case about potty training. For some reason accidents infuriated me! And then, after the fact, guilt plagued me for YEARS for being so grumpy at such a tender age in his life. My now 2yos is being potty trained and I’ve actually been having fun and laughing with him a lot accidents and all! We usually use the old country way (in the city, of course) of letting them run in the buff for a week. This time I added a two semi-sweet chocolate chip reward. Can I tell you?

Just the Kids
English major meets chemistry in the kitchen…
Today was one of those days I dream about...we got through all of the "required" first grade work I wanted to accomplish...Spirited-six-year-old ASKED to continue lounging on the recliner and practice reading her SSRW books...Spunky-almost-four-year-old rarely whined, used words to tell me when she needed affection, attention, and miscellaneous other needs met...and while the girls helped me make lunch I introduced them to the three forms of matter.

Twelve Signs You've Been Neglectful in the Kitchen!
Your toddler isn’t hungry at lunch because he’s been snaking all morning off the food on the floor…
Instead of wiping the counter and table off, you’ll make better time sweeping it…
Victoria Carrington’s Journal
Are you a real mom?
Forget stay-at-home mom vs. working outside the home mom. I have created a completely biased test of who rules the moms and who the real moms are. Are you ready? Let the mud-slinging begin.
I Blog, Therefore I am
Mood Swings
I am not having a good day. Actually, it started last night when I decided to sleep in really late, just because I had half of the day off. Well, guess who woke up bright and early this morning? Yours truly. And that made me crabby, since my mind needed to sleep in even if my body didn't want to.

The New Bloggers Support Team
Behind every blogger there’s a support team. From the blog master at the website to the teenage computer whiz at home, the new blogger depends on someone else to get him up and running. But you don’t even know what a blog is much less how to manage one. You need someone younger and smarter, someone with computer savvy to explain it to you.

Tales from the Trenches: Adventures in Entrepreneurship
If you see any blood on the manuscript, it's from cutting my thumb while picking up pieces of the toilet-tank lid which broke when it fell off the trash can where I set it hastily while trying unsuccessfully to prevent the clogged toilet from overflowing while the phone was ringing with a message from [another client] just as I was copying the last few pages of your book trying to get to FedEx in time to get it to you tomorrow so you might have a shot at having it ready for the California convention, and hopefully then get to the Boy Scout store before it closed to buy a Webelos manual for my 10-year-old son who was joining Cub Scouts tonight so that he would be eligible for this weekend's Camporee and opportunity to fly in a real airplane because he wants to be a rocket scientist. . . .
