How to Survive Life in the Suburbs

Short and Sweet Random Thought

in Everyday on 07/18/09


It’s been rainy and cold for three days.
There are 4 little girls in my family room singing Jonas Brothers at the top of their lungs.
I am in Karaoke Hell.

      Love them while you have them at home. Get yourself some earplugs! God Bless

      I agree with Debbie…it could be worse. They could be singing Britney…or Ludacris like I saw an 8 year old boy singing yesterday at the park.

      Thanks for your great comment on my bday post too!

      I’ll tell you how it could be worse…riding the train with hundreds of them on the way to the concert. Singing, yelling and arguing over who is going to marry Nick…uggh. That was my Friday night!

      Oh goodness not hours and hours of the Jonas Brothers. I’d be grabbing a double vodka and pulling my hair out.

      They may seem odd to an outsider but I’m so glad my kids are into 80s music and shun anything mainstream.

      At least you can go in another room, try listening to Kidz Bop in the car on a long car trip. I know there are such things as headphones, but there are also such things as 3 yr. olds that can’t keep them on their head and screech every 2 minutes when they fall over her eyes, so it’s Kidz Bop for all!! Yeah

      “YOU MUST BE PARANOID….” LOL! Are they full on dancing, too? You gave me a good laugh! 🙂

      How awful!!! Boys do not sing. They like to exchange “burns” /crude comments.

      Put them in the basement and shut the door!!

      But it could be worse.
      I’m not sure how though.

And then there’s @loviamykonos. 🤍

Looking for a hotel in Mykonos? This one has stunning views, the warmest staff, dreamy boutique-style surrounding and an unmatched location.

There were so many moments sitting on our terrace, looking out over the Aegean, we’d look at each other and say, “Can you believe we’re here! That this is real!” 💕
Lovia, you were pure magic. ✨
We left a little piece of our hearts there. 🇬🇷🤍

    Squee! It’s that time again — planning another #HomeExchange getaway!
Leaving the house behind and headed to Ontario cottage country. 🌲☀️
The hubby and I are planning a 7 night lakeside escape just a few hours from home, and honestly, this is where the girl math really starts mathing. After an expensive year, I’m extra grateful for our HomeExchange membership — and I love browsing all the gorgeous lakefront homes nearby!

Do you have a favourite town or lake in cottage country? Tell me!!

One annual membership fee + listing our home = unlimited swaps all year long. Affordable luxury travel for the win.
