There’s fire… We had an exciting night last night. I volunteered to do dinner, mainly so I could get a minute alone in a room by myself. When my hubby said he was too tired and would rather do dinner I should have known. Actually, I had an inkling that I should do dinner but I didn’t listen to do it doggone it. Instead I gave Dave the instructions: 1) put the leftovers in an oven safe dish & 2)... Read more
Wow. Wow. Wow. The sub-header doesn’t lie – it truly is Michael “like I’ve never seen him before.” The film documents the journey of his final 50 sold-out shows that he was to perform in London. The show would have been AMAZING. It was going to be a spectacle on a grand scale. It would have been an incredible experience to see one of those shows. In fact, I got sad all over again just thinking about something that magnificent... Read more
Last Sunday, Dave was fairly alarmed when I told him that Rhys hadn’t had a bowel movement since the previous Thursday. “Well, how many does he usually have a day?” I began to calculate…let’s see, 3 every hour, carry the 2, minus the 1… “about 6- 8 a day,” I said. With his booming voice he said, “Grace! That means he’s 22 poops behind! Call his Doctor!” I always hate to bug our pediatricians on weekends knowing they are trying... Read more

Back in May I posted this blog post about whether or not Rihanna should speak out about the domestic abuse she suffered from Chris Brown. At the time, I was glad she had kept silent though several media outlets were criticizing her silence as being “irresponsible,” about such a serious issue. I find it hard to believe that they could criticize a young 20 yr. old woman who is an international super star and just been beaten by her equally... Read more

Check out this amazing story from Shaun King’s blog “On Courage & Corn Pops.” It really encouraged me today. Read more
*****Spoiler Alert***** Yesterday Dave, Rhys & I, along with our friend Cristina & her 2 month old cutie, Amalia needed to get out of the house! (Rhys did great by the way –slept & ate the whole time) 🙂 As the movie got going I was swept away in my imagination as I believe was intended. But it became pretty clear about half way through the film that there was no plot. However, I was willing to forgive the film... Read more
If you had asked me 5 days ago, I’d have said everything was GGGRRRRREEAAT. What with Rhys sleeping 90% of the day & night, I was in the euphoric phase of falling in love where his craps & cries were “precious” to me. Well, those days are over my friend! (Though I am still very much in love with my little guy). We had a rough 5 day weekend here at the Biskie household, and I am officially overwhelmed with... Read more
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? Is it Iron Man? Is it Jenga-Fett? Is it just your average trick-or-treater? No! It’s none of those things… It’s SUPER RANBOT the Robot! He’s here to save the day! I was so proud of Dave for making this mostly home-made costume for less than $10. He got the body armor, shield, arm guards & helmet for a dollar each at the dollar store. The helmet was actually a bucket which Dave... Read more
