I received an interesting email forward the other day; it’s a Japanese video that shows a woman folding a shirt perfectly in a matter of seconds using an origami technique. I haven’t tried it out yet; I’ve been too busy blogging instead of folding my laundry 🙂 Lisa

We went to the Toledo Zoo again last weekend (it was our second weekend to visit the zoo in a row; we visited on Feb 7 and 15). Almost a week has passed since our last visit, but I had other blog posts lined up and ready to go, so that’s why I’m first writing

If you’re like me, then you are sick of winter. I’m sick of getting snowed in, sick of bundling up the kids, and sick of the high heating bills. So even though it’s a very dark type of humor, I did have to chuckle at this picture of a poor snowman I received via email;
Happy Birthday to my blog! Today is the one-year anniversary of the day I started my blog on tangents.org! And 381 blog posts later, here we are! So even though I haven’t been able to blog every day, there were a few days when I got more than one post up, and so in a

You might have noticed a decrease in the frequency of my blogging. I am still super-busy with my 4 kids, but now that the horrible months-long-lasting illness has run its course through our house, I have more energy and time than I’ve had in a long time… so why am I posting less? Because I’ve
Saturday was one of the funnest days I’ve had in a long time. I’ve been having major zoo-fever lately, and my husband knew this and renewed our Toledo Zoo membership online before I even woke up Saturday morning. When I finally arose, he said, how about going to the zoo today? So we packed up
