  • About the Rain

    By Amy Boz, on Tue Jul 21, 2009 6:06am PDT

    What is it about the rain that turns the most productive of us into lazy lumps?

    I guess I should start by saying that I love a rainy day.  Seriously...there's nothing like waking up in the morning and hearing the rain pattering on the roof.  Needing to turn on all…

  • Letting Go

    By Amy Boz, on Fri Jul 17, 2009 8:22am PDT

    As I work toward a more simplistic life this summer, I've been clearing out some remnants of clutter that survived my year-long purge of the house.  In general, I can part with just about anything. I'm not sentimental, and don't get weepy about "things." …

  • Summer Simplicity, Once Again

    By Amy Boz, on Thu Jul 16, 2009 5:58pm PDT

    Well, I find it quite ironic that the last time I posted was almost exactly one year ago.  Why has it been so long?  Well, perhaps because my quest for simplicity last year didn't quite go as planned.  Instead of slowing down, I think we wound up speeding up, and time sped…

  • Who Is That Woman???

    By Amy Boz, on Sun Jul 20, 2008 6:41am PDT

    I have a frightening tale to share with you today.  It's not for the weak of heart, as it is a tale of horror, then woe. Yesterday afternoon, my husband was in the shower and the kids were out in the driveway, covering it with their chalky artwork.  I was doing some general clean-up as... Read More »

  • Clearing Out the Clutter

    By Amy Boz, on Wed Jul 16, 2008 6:33am PDT

    I mentioned yesterday that in my striving for simplicity, I am clearing the clutter out of our lives.  One way I am doing this is through eBay, but the truth is, although it may seem like people will buy anything on eBay, some of the things I am looking to get rid of just don't seem...

  • Striving for Simplicity

    By Amy Boz, on Tue Jul 15, 2008 5:34am PDT

    I recently started a thread about this at www.frugalvillage.com but it's something I feel strongly about, and I believe it bears repeating. Lately, I've been feeling a need/desire/calling to change the way my family is living.  There's nothing wrong with how we currently live. ... Read More »

  • Angelina Jolie: Homewrecker or Saint???

    By Amy Boz, on Thu Jul 10, 2008 11:13am PDT

    I want to hate Angelina Jolie.  I really, really do. There was no one who was a bigger fan of Bren or Jad or Braniston or whatever the heck Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt were called when they were together.  I can still envision their wedding pictures and remember how incredibly happy...

  • Time Management for the Working Mother

    By Amy Boz, on Thu Jul 10, 2008 6:55am PDT

    Guilty Conscience One of the most common concerns of working mothers is how chaotic and stressful it can be to work a full-time job outside the home and then come home and work another full-time job there.             Working moms often feel... Read More »

  • The Best Laid Plans

    By Amy Boz, on Wed Jul 9, 2008 6:06am PDT

    I spent a good chunk of Sunday afternoon cooking and cutting up sausage and ground beef to put in a pasta sauce for Monday.  The house was filled with the scent of delicious, Italian sauce being made and by the time we went to bed on Sunday night, we were all eagerly awaiting Monday night’s...
