A Post for My Maine Friends

Just wanted to let you know–Allegiant Air has a really good sale going right now. Bangor to Orlando direct, $88.70 round trip, including tax. (They charge extra for checked luggage, etc–FYI). A lot of dates available in June. So if you wanted to go down to Florida, but didn’t want to pay a whole lot, now might be the time to go. Unless, of course, you wanted to go to Florida, didn’t want to pay a whole lot, but already went in April. I paid $60 more than this price, and felt like I was getting a good deal back […]

Ireland Pictures and More

And just so I don’t get any complaints that my blog’s gettin’ too churchy for all y’all, here are some pictures of the family trip to Dublin on the way home from Slovakia. This was a fun trip, although everyone living in a small hotel room for four nights wasn’t necessarily the easiest thing we’ve done. Our days there consisted of waking up in the morning, feeding the baby, letting her get a good nap in and then heading out around 11. We tried to be back around 6 for her to get another good nap in before she ate

Dublin. So . . . maybe things will be disrupted with the Dublin trip. I wait with bated breath. Sorry–I just don’t have the heart to post anything more right now.

Vacationing with a Babywise Baby

I’m a big believer in Babywise. I’ve posted about it before on my blog, and I feel that a lot of the success my kids have had can be attributed to its parent-centric methods. Both of my kids get regular comments about how well behaved they are, and while I’d love to attribute it to my superior genes, something tells me I can’t take full credit for that. In any case, my kids are very schedule-oriented, particularly at a young age. This makes for a very nice time at home, but when we’re out and about, this can backfire. Kids

Today’s Thursday

That means that tomorrow’s Friday. After that comes Saturday, and then I’ll be living in agony for all of Father’s Day. It’s ridiculous that I let airplane rides take this much control of my life, but I have a hard time letting it all go. I tend to be a wound up person as it is–I worry about things I have no control over. Plane rides epitomize that flaw in my character. What if the bus is delayed? What if the plane is rerouted and I miss my connection? What if I go on the wrong day? What if my
