Hello New Year, Good-bye Resolutions
With the New Year there is of course talk of resolutions to go with it. Surprise, surprise, I’m not too big into resolutions with the New Year. I mean, if it takes a particular day to make a decision about something, then you probably aren’t going to follow through with it. I’ve never made too big of a deal out of the change of a number other than usually staying up late that night along with most of the rest of the world.
Madonna and A-Rod, Co-Parents?
First I would like to say that I hope everyone is having a safe & happy holiday! For me, I’m finally reaching an age where I really am able to appreciate life a little more and so the holidays seem to be a perfect time to really remember this!
This may sound a little strange, but I gave a homeless man a dollar today & encourage everyone else to find one & do so as well. For me I experience so many emotions when doing so. Just a small thing, but it’s something we can all do - even if we only have $2 in our own pockets!
Okay…now down to business 
I admit it. I do read some tabloid headlines. I am not as big of a Perez Hilton junkie as what I used to be. But I still manage to pick up on some of the latest star gazing.
Is Santa Really Necessary?
I know, I know. First all of the “heathens” want to do away with using the word God in schools, now this retarded blogger wants to do away with Santa?! What is the world coming to?!
It’s nothing personal Santa. It’s just that for some reason, I don’t like lying to my kids…about anything. Even something that everyone seems to think brings so much fun and joy into a young child’s life.
I joke with my kids. I will tell them something just to pull their leg & enjoy seeing their eyes get really wide. But after the joke is over, the truth is out. Obviously as a parent, I do shelter them from some things, but for the most part, I would consider myself an honest parent in all areas.
Quality Time At An Affordable Price
Two words parents love - quality and affordability. Quality time with family is extremely difficult as parents work to make ends meet and the children seem to have a social life that fills a calendar from sun up to sun down. And, with families stretching every last dime to help pay for necessities, frivolous expenses like going out to the movies is becoming an activity of the past.
In an effort to gain an affordable evening with the family that can give you all the quality time you definitely deserve, I wanted to offer you two ideas outside of dinner with your family, that can help bring you all together. I have implemented these two activities within my own home and they have turned out to be quite a hit!
