Making A Wish

October 28, 2013 by Nancy 1 Comment

Sometimes making a wish is a very good thing. Sometimes believing  something will help you when you need that help, is worth embracing. Sometimes making a wish and sending it off will bring about the change you await. You start, most importantly, with a group who mean so much to you. And a cocktail … [Read more...]

Facing My Fear at 50, Again

October 22, 2013 by Nancy 14 Comments

All week I watched the parasail float over the water above me as I ran or walked the beach. I could do that, I say to myself, from the safety of the peaceful beach. But do I want to? "Nance, you should do that. I know you are afraid." I am, as many of you know, very afraid of heights. I have … [Read more...]

All Ready For Back To School – Not!

September 25, 2013 by Nancy 1 Comment

I made a small list when I went away just before school started for my daughter to accomplish before first day back. Shine your shoes. Organize your binders. Clean out your knapsack (she had used it at camp this summer). Sassy had 4 days to accomplish these tasks. Sassy did none of … [Read more...]

smarty pants

July 31, 2013 by Nancy 1 Comment

I was a bit of that crazy 'every moment is a teachable moment' mom with a fat Webster's Dictionary on our breakfast table every morning when my kids were little. We would discuss a word a day. I would write it on this little blackboard and then we would talk about what it … [Read more...]

words for wednesday- leaning against the wrong wall

June 26, 2013 by Nancy 2 Comments

For all of us who may have pursued the wrong person,  the wrong career, the wrong promotion, the wrong lifestyle, the wrong degree, the wrong idea of happiness, the wrong marriage- this really spoke to me. "We get to the top of the ladder and realize it is leaning against the wrong wall" And … [Read more...]

piss me off- Good morning Nancy, here is your net worth

June 25, 2013 by Nancy 2 Comments

5 years ago,  after having waded through the murky waters of separation, with all the feelings, difficulties and excruciatingly time consuming paperwork  and legal stuff, and  alongside heartfelt rear view mirror analysis, I met with my bank manager to renegotiate my mortgage. It appeared I might be … [Read more...]

one at a time parenting

June 24, 2013 by Nancy 1 Comment

I am like most moms- a juggler. It does not mean this is done well but all those balls are in the air at once. They fall, I drop them, some smash  and on some occasions it is all a beautifully choreographed circus act. Is it time to mention single parent status here to further a point?  Because … [Read more...]

Affresh® Washer Cleaner

April 15, 2009 by Kath

Recently 100 Go2Girlz tackled and cleaned their often-neglected washing machine with Affresh® Washer Cleaner. High efficiency (HE) washers save water and energy, but over time, if not properly maintained … [Read more...]
