district belle: March 2006

Friday, March 17, 2006. Play us a song, you're the piano man. So who says that seeing a show from the very, very back row - yep, no one behind but pure wall - can't be an energizing and moving experience? Not I, that's for sure. So I finally made it to the "MCI Center" (not before it changed names, but that's besides the point) and I finally got to see Billy Joel solo. No offense to Sir Elton John, but Billy Joel stole the show the first time around and it was nice to see him solo. And so it goes. VP Web...

district belle: August 2006
http://lj-dc.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 31, 2006. Of course I'll miss my fellow Dupont Divas. Dupont was definitely my first taste of the city, so it'll always have a fond spot for me. It was in large part the busy nature of Dupont that sold me on DC and brought me here. The Tour Guide would joke it was the two trips we took to Lauriol Plaza that weekend, but I digress. But I think Sassy and the DG are definitely going to make the change so seamless for me. I'll be without email access all day tomorrow (gasp . the horror!

district belle: December 2005
http://lj-dc.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 31, 2005. Wow - doesn't feel like another year's flown by. Even harder to believe I've been here in DC now for over nine months. Feels like only yesterday, but then again I really feel at home. That's always a good thing. So this year I said I was going to really do the New Year's resolution thing. I usually come up with some but, as I think is the norm for most people, they usually get forgotten. Maybe posting it somewhere like this will make me more accountable? Hope everyone has a g...

district belle: June 2006

Thursday, June 29, 2006. Manhattan, music, and more. So my trip to NYC which was up in the air since I was wait-listed for my training course is now back on. Yes, I realize mid-July in NYC may equate out to being a little on the toasty side, but I'll take the trip however it comes. No complaints! Something like 120-130 artists? Amazing. I'm looking forward to seeing Tom Petty, Van Morrison, Willy Nelson, the Shins, John Mayer, Iron and Wine. the list goes on! Posted by Lara Ruth at 6/29/2006. Definitely ...

Musings of a Not-So-Stay-at-Home Mom. Saturday, July 24, 2010. But, let’s be real. Sometimes even a set-time-“ish” isn’t enough.

Musings of a Not-So-Stay-at-Home Mom. Friday, July 18, 2014. Don't Dis the Playdate. I read this blog as a result of a friend’s Facebook share: http:/ www.dadncharge.com/2014/07/banish-playdate.html? It got me thinking. I had several responses pop into my head, a number of them pretty snarky, so I’ll try to clean them up here, both in terms of organization and niceties. So, sure, let your kids have spontaneous play as much as they can. I love it when my kids have pick-up play with neighbors, and I re...

Musings of a Not-So-Stay-at-Home Mom: Vaccination
http://notsostayathomemom.blogspot.com/2012/07/vaccination.html
Musings of a Not-So-Stay-at-Home Mom. Tuesday, July 31, 2012. I firmly believe in vaccination. My kids are vaccinated. My husband is vaccinated. Even our cats are vaccinated! I actually think everyone who isn’t immune-compromised (or otherwise medically unable to be vaccinated) should be vaccinated. Yes, everyone.). I think vaccines are fantastic. We modern parents can revel in the sniffles and coughs and colds our children bring home. This is an amazing thing. I clicked the link. I read the article.

Musings of a Not-So-Stay-at-Home Mom. Sunday, January 24, 2010. I wonder how many other parents out there are “nod and smile” parents like me? Since having DD, I have learned one of the best overall parenting rules: trust your instincts, and as a result, I have become a “nod and smile” parent. Let me tell you the story. We went back to the doctor for a check-in. Still no weight gain, so he told me to use a supplemental nursing system (SNS). Ever heard of that? It’s a delightful contraption. You...For inf...
