What would happen if you gave a Mom a totally kid-free day? It’s almost mind-boggling to think about. She might start out with a “real” breakfast actually sitting down, instead of perched on the kitchen counter waiting for the next sharpened dart to fly by. She could even take…
Yes, the aliens are going to camp this week!!! Two camps, two different locations, two different times. Let’s see, that should get me about 43 minutes to myself between camp runs, but hell, I’ll take it! Archery is just one of the fun activites Rocket Boy gets to do. I…
OK, the wranglers have only been out of school for a couple of weeks. We’ve blown through Florida and the vacation fund, now what? I’ve starting posting signs around the house to help me keep my sanity.My sanity signs.Camp starts next week, but they still come home after it’s over. The kid…
Our trip to Florida was an experience to say the least. The wranglers learned how to boogie board and kayak, both in the ocean. They collected tons of sea shells and played in the surf. We decided to blow the bank and stay at a condo/resort where everyone…

While Mommies In Orbit is on vacation, she is getting to see some pretty cool stuff. Not only the Gulf of Mexico, beautiful white beaches, but also Pensacola, home of the Blue Angels. I was lucky enough to see one of their performances today. Amazing! I don’t jump and…
The wranglers had a very successful lemonade stand on Memorial Day with all proceeds going to help the people and pets in Joplin Missouri after a devastating tornado. The proceeds, along with a donation from Mom and Dad went to the “Global Animal Foundation.” They provide shelter, medical…
