We all know about the KISS method for getting things done.   But I can't say I've been more inclined to integrate that into my lifestyle than now, as a mom.    All you want is quick and easy!    I'm also more cognizant of how we treat Mother Earth.   Not only is it important for us to treat her kindly, but in doing so, we are teaching our children how to do the same, thus giving them an more healthy envorinment to thrive.    The world we leave behind will be theirs.    How will they treat it?    What are you doing in your home to teach your little ones (or your spouse) to be "greener".    One resource is www.springfieldmoms.org   with a list of ways to be green.  What resources have you found to help?

Republicans have a long wait to November, with little fanfare or drama on who will be on the ballot for President.    Democrats are living quite another experience.    See the results of who's on top at Fox News

But where is your vote going?   If you're a Republican, are you throwing your vote away to pick a Democratic candidate that, in your opinion, could lose against John McCain?     If you are a Democrat, how are you choosing your candidate?   Charisma?   Experience?   Race?   Religion?

Ahhh....finally back from maternity leave.   It's amazing how much time it takes to care for a tiny baby.   I spend every minute of my day caring for my son.   From bottles to diapers to feeding, there is always something that needs to be done.   Sometimes all he needs is to be rocked.   I love it!    But I'm interested to hear how your newborn changed your life.   I know there are many new moms out there.   I have about ten friends right now who are pregnant, or recently delivered their baby.    What is the biggest change you've had with a baby?   What's your secret for making it work?    Mine?    Get lots of help....even if you just have someone who can run to the store for you, or cook for you, or perhaps taking the child so you can get some sleep.   Time goes up in value once you become a parent.

Well, the Oscar nominees have been announced.....

Can't say I've seen a lot of these movies (perhaps because I'm pregnant and sitting in a movie theatre isn't appealing right now).... but it'll give me a chance to watch something good on DVD or PPV.    Still, no matter how familiar I am with the movies, just watching the Academy Awards show on TV is always enterntaining with all of it's Hollywood regalness.    However this year, things could be alot different with the writer's strike.   Some actors say they're not crossing a picket line, which surely will be a large part of the Oscar scenery.    Perhaps it will get more people to watch the Oscars this year?   What's your take?
