		<title>Home-School or Homeschool</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The title has Home-School in it but it&#8217;s not about  homeschooling or homeschooling families.  It is all about a Home and School Council connected to the Philadelphia Public Schools. An umbrella  organization connecting home and school associations at Philadelphia public  schools.  This point is missed by at least one commenter who remarks about [...]]]></description>

		<title>One summer morning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A post on TWTM got me wanting to share my favorite breakfast food.
It isn&#8217;t bacon and eggs, or waffles, or pancakes, or anything most people think of for breakfast.  No&#8230;&#8230;  Let me back-up to a summer morning when my parents were visiting us.  It was 1998 and it would be the last time my mom [...]]]></description>

		<title>Stem Cells from Wisdom Teeth</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A friend&#8217;s son has FOP.  No, that doesn&#8217;t stand for Fraternal Order of Police, but fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva.   Maybe you have heard of the Stone Man&#8217;s disease where muscle and connective tissue turns to bone?  But if you haven&#8217;t you shouldn&#8217;t be surprised since there&#8217;s only an estimated 700 folks in the WORLD with [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Pink Carpet, Part 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The installers arrived this morning at 10am, leaving around 2pm.  Oh my, when it went in on the stairs the carpet had a purple tone to it.  I wasn&#8217;t sure I liked it:

It is called neutral beige.  Once they left I ran the vacum over it, picking up all the little threads and trying to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Skater of the Month</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Late this fall our skating coaches began awarding a Skater-of-the-Month award.  This is to be given not necessary to the fastest skater, or the skater with the best form, but to the skater who has been working hard, listening to the coaches and trying to improve.  And so it was on a fine evening that [...]]]></description>

		<title>It might be &#8216;09</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m still enjoying, and will be for some time, the Christmas present my boys made for me this year:

A FOURTEEN room purple martin house!  They used materials that were lying around in the woodworking shop except for the copper strips on the roof peak.  What a beautiful, sound house! The birds are going to love [...]]]></description>

The stomachs are filled with seafood.
The movie is playing and it is time to say so-long to 2008.  What a year it was for us.
Happy New Year.  We welcome 2009.

		<title>Painting Again</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This morning, in the bright light of daytime, I realized that the hallwall trimwork looks dingy.  Yellowish instead of nice, bright white like the foyer or family room trimwork.
Now would be a great time to paint I thought and sprung the idea on DH.  He isn&#8217;t too keen on doing this project but that didn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Pink Carpet and a SURPRISE</title>
		<description><![CDATA[ Chloe, laying, watching the action below her.  This is her favorite spot to sleep.  She looks innocent doesn&#8217;t she.  Hmm, read on to see how she is the reason for some of this carpet removal.

She moved quickly once the work began.

The boys love to jump right in and tackle these jobs.  (This is actually a [...]]]></description>
