Welcome to Our Family Blog

Sit down, relax, and take in the day-to-day musings of our little suburban family.

"Families are like fudge - mostly sweet with a few nuts." ~Author Unknown

"Family: A social unit where the father is concerned with parking space, the children with outer space, and the mother with closet space." Evan Esar

"I don't have to look up my family tree, because I know that I'm the sap." ~Fred Allen

Expect the Unexpected

How is it that I'm suddenly obsessed with the concept of blogging? Or that I'm sitting here drinking a cup of coffee? Two things that I ordinarily would scoff at for being hyped-up or trendy. I'm not trendy. I hate trendy. Or at least I thought I did. Even more astonishingly, I've found myself recently enamored with opera! Those of you who know me know that I studied it in college, performed it, and even received a graduate degree in music. But I found I could no longer tolerate the sound of it after grad school. I really, REALLY detested it. HATED it, even. Sad, I know, but that's what happened.

So, for someone who likes to surround herself with a sense of stability and routine predictability--why all these little sudden changes? Why this blog? Why waxing philosophical? I didn't think I liked philosophical. Sigh. I have so much left to learn about my ever-evolving self. That's okay--it's kind of fun, actually. I'm starting to embrace the idea that change and the unexpected are what make life interesting, for better or worse. So, you see--my husband isn't the only one who can't figure me out. Turns out, he's in pretty good company.
