Black And White Or Shades of Gray
Surely, You Jess! ― This post is the second in a series of articles. The first can be found here. My father was a good hearted man. He was devoted to his family and he freely gave of his time, talents and treasures to anyone who needed them. My dad loved cars. He could... (more)

Jesus and The Chiquita Banana Stickers
Surely, You Jess! ― My friend Charles over at Mostly Bright Ideas has been writing extraordinary and honest pieces lately regarding his “growing up Catholic” life. Charles is a thinker, perhaps even what some might call an “over thinker”. I empathize with... (more)

La Vie Boheme
Surely, You Jess! ― This is definitely “Samantha month” in our house. Besides the glam up for prom and the elation of a high school graduation, she also appeared in a community theater production of “Rent” in an ensemble role as a featured dancer, junkie and&... (more)

Primp And Circumstances
Surely, You Jess! ― As much as I whined about the prom preparations, last weekend’s primping went along with only two circumstances. None of us could figure out how to elaborately lace and tie the back of Erica’s dress. We ended up doing it wrong (and a friend with... (more)

I’d Rather Have A Playstation and Evidence That Boys Are Easier Than Girls
Surely, You Jess! ― Since a friend (who has the same number of children at similar ages to my own) was able to “get away” for an entire week during this end of school season, I’ve come to the conclusion that busyness and stress are not akin to the number of... (more)

Happy 5th Blogoversary To Me!
Surely, You Jess! ― If my blog were a human, it would be going to Kindergarten. I have a feeling that lasting five years in the blogosphere is quite a feat since I’ve seen so many bloggers come and go during this time period. I think the secret is to let the blog grow... (more)

CAPtivated
Surely, You Jess! ― The last time I posted, I was wearing an Easter Bonnet. Time has gotten a bit away from me, since I’ve been busy changing many, many hats. All are proverbial, of course, because I live in The Windy City. The only people who wear hats here outside... (more)

Without A Peep
Surely, You Jess! ― I have a confession to make. I killed The Easter Bunny. Even though I have been stealing his identity all these years, it was still a justifiable homicide. Self-defense. I’m just feeling a bit guilty that it had to come to this. The reasons behind... (more)

What’s In A Name?
Surely, You Jess! ― A whole heck of lot, as I learned this week. Shakespeare’s Juliet wondered what’s in a name, too. Her stance is that if you called a rose by any other name, it would still smell just as sweet. While there is truth to that, I believe that a poor... (more)

It’s Official! I’m A Columnist!
Surely, You Jess! ― The family that I hold together like a toothpick in a giant club sandwich is a cast of characters and I’ve said many times that I should have a team of reality cameramen following me around. Not only are my loved ones entertaining and a constant... (more)

Presbyterians Are Crossing
Surely, You Jess! ― When I was little, my grandparents would occasionally get dressed to the nines and jet off to Las Vegas. My sister and I would stand with noses pressed to the airport window as our little hands waved goodbye to the plane taking off the runway. Upon... (more)

Lather. Rinse. Repeat.
Surely, You Jess! ― In the summertime, I like to have pedicures that include swirly, glittery designs painted on my toes. Last summer, the other pool moms voted me “Best Toenails On The Block”. Initially, I was quite honored until I started looking at everyone else... (more)

Onswipe, What Have You Done To WordPress?
Surely, You Jess! ― Some days I know I’m crazy; other days, the world just wants me to think I am. This has been a rough past few days. My thisclose to 100 year old grandfather’s health is failing quite rapidly and my brother-in-law suffered a major spinal fracture... (more)

The New, Hip Thing
Surely, You Jess! ― I am terrible at sports. As a kid, I hoped to be the last one picked for a team in gym class. That way, my ineptness was already implied, thereby eliminating anyone’s need to get mad at me because I don’t know how to play. People take their... (more)

Oh, Danny Boy
Surely, You Jess! ― “May those who love us, love us; and those who don’t love us, may God turn their hearts; and if He doesn’t turn their hearts, may he turn their ankles so we’ll know them by their limping.” – a combo Irish blessing/curse In... (more)
