Eight months ago Janette Stenstom’s life seemed half-baked!  She was laid off in April and unable to find another corporate job with benefits in this burned out economy.  Then her husband’s contract wasn’t renewed and it seemed to be a recipe for disaster!  But this mother of three sprinkled in a dash of optimism, a… Read More »

Hi Ladies,
Just a quick check-in to let you know I am alive.  As per our household’s typical February of Sickness, it has been a crazy month around our house.  I don’t know what it is about my birth month, but it is always the time that my family gets sick — Happy Birthday to Mommy (not!).

Ladies, I have had a LOT going on these days so please forgive my extended absence.  After my post announcing the birth of Miss Karoline, I contracted a uterine infection.  Let me tell you that is NO fun at all!!  After convalesing for 10 days to recover from that, I was back in the real world… Read More »

I was lucky enough to take Going Green Kiddo on a Mommy-Son date last Friday afternoon (after a fun and fabulous ladies’ lunch with my great gal pals/Mommy friends, Amie and Melanie).  The big date afternoon included a trip to see Bob the Builder LIVE!, a singing, dancing, building extravaganza, starring Bob the Builder, Wendy,… Read More »

I don’t really have a “going green” blog this week.  My mind is so preoccupied lately.  Now that the morning/all day/all night sickness has passed, I am just mainly exhausted and three-fourths of the time a little out of it.  I am also still in shock that on Friday we found out that we are having… Read More »
