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).

An Extraordinary Housewife


I just wanted to let everyone know that one of our friends did an extraordinary thing yesterday! LANA did an amazing thing for her neighbor, and this blog is about us being extraordinary, and I thought I would share (her proud husband let me in on it). Lana's poor neighbor who is about 78 years old went outside to dump some garbage, the lid flew up in the wind and hit her in the face knocking her to the ground. Lana's son went to tell her that the neighbor was on the ground probably picking up some garbage and wondered if he should go help her. Lana went ouside and realized she was not on the ground picking up garbage, but had indeed fallen. Our little 50 pound Lana picked this lady up and carried her into the house and laid her down, then called her husband, and they drove her to the hospital together. Lana sat at the E.R. with her ALL day long until she had to leave to her baseball game (which she coaches). The neighbor is gonna be alright, she had surgery last night on her broken hip, and I am sure Lana will be there to help with the recovery. Way to go Lana!! Truly an Extraordinary Housewife:)
