You Know You've Worked the Night Shift Too Long When. . .
July 29, 2009 10:05 AM by Jeanne Johnston
Years ago, when my grandma was getting on in years and her housekeeping wasn't what it used to be, my mom drug me over there to spend the day really cleaning house for her. Actually, this may have been triggered by the infamous strawberries with baked Read More...

Call Me WAHMmy
July 2, 2009 9:23 AM by Jeanne Johnston
I remember back when my daughter was born, getting a card that gave me permission to let my regular work go to seed because there was a new baby in the house--not that I really care what anyone thinks of that dust bunny collection behind the toilet anyway, Read More...

Hello, I'm a Mac
May 30, 2008 7:33 AM by Jeanne Johnston
Let me preface this by admitting I'm a snob. My family has used nothing but Macs and never will buy anything else. Heck, we've even got an original Mac Classic that still works--if you don't mind its quaint 8 Mhz processor and 512 KB RAM. Yeah, it might Read More...
