Be the change you want to see in the world...

Synopsis of Us

Lisa is au natural. She likes to have babies at home and drink slimy green liquids with large amounts of earth in them. She loves the quacks and we love her. If you are ailing, just call Lisa. She will doctor you up!

Melanie is a little bundle of energy. She's very peppy and always bouncing around. Do not drive with her. She tends to talk and visit and not watch the road. Cuts a mean hair-do!

Sarah is crazy! She loves Diet Pepsi (too much). The group photographer with many free photo shoots for her friends. Many questionable eating habits that we all ignore, hopefully they don't kill her.

Emily is an overachiever. She never sleeps and wakes up way too early so she can pratice music with her kids. She loves the earthy green drink too. Be careful, she will try to poison you with sugar-free goodies.

Jen is a dental hygienist. If you want to know which kind of gum to chew (to xylitol or not to xylitol, this is the question) she'll know.

Lana is full of crap! Literally, her house is full of crap! Yes, just stuff. If you ever need any random thing, pretty sure it's in her house... somewhere. Very competitive, don't coach children's athletics with her.

Adria is straightforward. She pretty much says it like it is. She is our community sex-ed advisor. Any questions, just ask her, she knows it all.

Marianne (one of the tall, leggy blonds) is amazing! She graduated from college while taking care of her four children and working to save the entire Chinese orphan population.

Marilyn is a perfectionist. She has to have everything at a ninety degree angle, if not, she's nervous. Hopefully this doesn't kill her. Likes to scrapbook, spends a large sum of money on this activity.

Stephanie (another tall, leggy blond) really likes to work out. Too much of a good thing is not a good thing. Nursing is her profession (not wet nursing).

Who wants to help me tackle a big project?

Okay ladies here's a big one. It is 12:00 a.m. on technically Monday morning and I can't sleep because I am trying to think of a way to get out of this dang winter slump. I think I have an idea. I need to paint almost my entire main floor!!! Anyone feel like some painting. I am really not loving the yellow color that it is now and my ceilings are yellow too. So depressing for me when I don't get a lot of natural sunlight till the afternoon (when we have sun that is). I need to find a good light taupe color and get to work. Maybe having a project will stimulate the endorphins. I would really appreciate a good "extraordinary work day" I'll bet if I get it all taped off, we could have at least the walls done in a day. Then I could maybe hire the ceiling done. What do ya think? Anyone in? I sure do miss you guys! I could use a good laugh with y'all. I would even buy lunch....how enticing is that? Marilyn

Mare... you know I'd love to however, with the six children in tow I'm pretty sure I'd be more work than help. Lana
