Tomorrow morning Teacher and I are hopping into the van and driving to Chicago for the Midwest Clinic. I don’t know why they call it the “Midwest” Clinic except that it’s held in the midwest. It’s actually an international conference, with clinicians and attendees from all over the world. We’ve…
I am SO excited! I’ve been thinking about redoing my Zany Zebra site but didn’t have the money to hire someone and wasn’t sure what direction to take if I did it myself. But now I’m going to have a new template designed by a designer recommended by a mutual…
One year Teacher found this recipe and knowing that I am a card-carrying chocolate addict and that I would be over-the-moon-happy if he made it for me, he secretly bought the ingredients and made it it the afternoon we decorated our Christmas tree. I took one sip and fell instantly…
I don’t know why, but lately I’ve had the itch to change Zany Zebra again. It’s not that I don’t like the colors, I love purple and green. But I’m dreaming of orchid and lime, with strawberry, cantaloupe, and a nice light blue. Maybe it’s because winter has hit Wisconsin…

Z-Man was running in circles around the kitchen and being an experienced Mom I know what that means. Time to go potty! I don’t have to go. Go potty before you have an accident. I don’t have to go potty! Go quick before I eat all the M&Ms… Silence 2…
We painted the girls’ room over Labor Day and I’ve been waiting for it to be clean enough to photograph. I finally decided that I’ll be old and grey before that happens so I threw everything into the closet to make it look good then took photos of the cleanest…
The other morning Teacher took our three kitties to the vet – they hate the vet. One of them – I think it was Laelia – got really mad and decided to get us back. I was folding laundry and felt something wet – soaked actually. Being a mom I…
Moms will do anything to keep their kids safe – ANYTHING! I discovered how strong this instinct is one night when three-year-old College Boy started screaming in his bath. College Boy was a wonderful little boy, smart and happy-go-lucky… I’m not exactly sure what that means, but I like the…
